In a shocking discovery by the American Psychological Association, it was found that men are less likely to seek help for emotional distress. Who would have thought?
This reluctance can lead to sadness and isolation, and apparently, about 60% of American men know this feeling all too well. It's almost like humans are social creatures who need emotional connection to thrive or something, but what do I know? Men, in particular, tend to have smaller social circles and fewer close friends than their female counterparts, which can lead to increased feelings of loneliness. To better understand this phenomenon, Travis Kelce, in all his hilarious (and oh so gorgeous) glory, gave us a glimpse into the world of straight male friendships in his SNL debut.
We all know that making new friends as an adult is harder than reaching the summit of Mount Everest (well, it’s at least a close second).
