Women only respect money and status—emotional respect is tied directly to cash. Men call it hypergamy. Women call it standards. Is it survival instinct, or proof love without money doesn’t exist?

Let’s be real for a second. Every man in here has had a moment where he felt disrespected, overlooked, or flat-out unappreciated, whether it was in marriage, dating, or even at work, and those moments either break you down or build you up depending on how you respond, so I want to hear from you… what’s one time in your life you felt disrespected as a man, how did you handle it, and looking back would you do anything differently? Your story might be exactly what another brother in here needs to hear right now.
