“The only reason a man would go on an interview to cry about a woman is because he is poor. Any man who has a proper job or is busy with his own thing won’t even have time to attend that kind of interview or come online to cry over a woman.”
According to him, men who are focused and financially stable are less likely to publicly express such emotions, especially on platforms where it can go viral.
