I agree everyone needs help from time to time but I guess I am just the type of man that doesn't tolerate a woman attitude and how emotionally irrational a lot of women can be at time. I dont understand why you would need her "24/7" as you said but are perfectly able to communicate via electronic devices like you are here? So what is it that you need her so much for that a friend couldn't help you with?
Makes it even more sad then...any man that has to depend on another person is unfortunate but when the other person is a woman that's even worse in my opinion. Call me old fashion but I still believe a man should depend on no one but himself if he is physically able. (And it's not a sexist thing it's just a man understands a man way better than a woman can ever be taught)
