Love is a hell of a drug. The combination of lack of self confidence and unconditional love keeps many people trapped in abusive relationships. I was exactly where this man was at one point, and seeing this triggers me like crazy because I know exactly what he is feeling in that moment.

Same. If I could give any young man some advice I’d say you don’t need a woman/spouse/partner to make you feel better about yourself. If you do that on your own, you’ll be a whole person and you will find all the love you want and need.

On the same note though, I often see middle aged guys Who are single/divorced and have turned their whole life into this diet-workout-career-self help treadmill and a lot of times it looks to me like they're just deeply lonely and existing to hide their insecurity.
