It’s important to note that not all men walk away from relationships or families without coming back and that the reasons for any individual’s actions can be complex and varied. Each man is different. However, some possible reasons why some men may walk away from relationships or families without coming back include the following:
Fear of commitment: Some men may struggle with the idea of settling down and committing to one person or family and may feel overwhelmed or scared by the responsibilities that come with that commitment.
Communication breakdown: Communication is critical in any relationship, and if a man feels like he cannot communicate effectively with his partner or family, he may feel like walking away is the only option.
Infidelity: If a man is unfaithful to his partner, or the partner has been unfaithful, he may feel guilty or ashamed and may choose to walk away rather than face the consequences of his actions.( accept her actions)
Personal issues: Men, like everyone else, may struggle with personal and emotional problems such as mental health, addiction, or financial difficulties, which can strain their relationships and make them feel like walking away is the only solution.
Incompatibility: Sometimes, two people simply are incompatible and may find their relationship not working out, leading one or both partners to walk away. We come into the relationship with so many expectations hoping everything will work. Sometimes we compare our relationship to our parents, hoping I should be able to meet those same standards.
Many things can cause a man (or woman) to “walk away” from their family. It may be infidelity (by either person). It may be “falling out of love”. It may be a desire to get away from the responsibilities of a marriage/family. It may be a “mid-life crisis” (yes, women can get those as well). Or it could be something else entirely. Every situation must be judged on its own particulars. You can’t chalk it all up to just one thing – or even several things.
According to John Meir he says’’ My father left my mother (I was an adult at the time), because of several painful factors’’: This includes
- Religious differences
- Infidelity
- Pride/seeking praise from others
- Desire for fewer responsibilities
- (possibly) a mid-life crisis
- and probably more
For so many year I haven’t spoken with my father since. NOT because he left, but because of the manner/timing in which he left. I wasn’t traumatized by their divorce – I actually knew it would happen eventually. But the timing was extremely poorly chosen, and certain acts surrounding the timing were not the wisest of choices.
Sometimes someone leaving can be a wonderful thing, in hindsight. It can lead to learning more about your strengths, getting your life in better order, and, perhaps, meeting someone who is better for you. I know, it’s hard to see that when it happens, but it can end up that way.
Well, we can say It’s important to remember that each person and relationship is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer to why some men may choose to walk away from relationships or families without coming back. However, communication and mutual understanding can go a long way in preventing these kinds of situations from arising in the first place.
