"Niobe Way is a Professor of Applied Psychology at New York University and director of the Ph.D. program in Developmental Psychology. A number of years ago, she started asking teenage boys what their closest friendships meant to them and documenting what they had to say. The results can be found in her groundbreaking book Deep Secrets.

This particular question, about boys and their closest friendships, turns out to be an issue of life or death for American men.

Before Way, no one would have thought to ask boys what is happening in their closest friendships because we assumed we already knew. When it comes to what is happening emotionally with boys or men, we often confuse what we expect of them with what they actually feel. And given enough time, they do so as well.

This particular question, about boys and their closest friendships, turns out to be an issue of life or death for American men.
This surprisingly simple line of inquiry, once engaged, can open a Pandora's box of self-reflection for men. After a lifetime of being told how men "typically" experience feeling and emotion, the answer to the question "what do my closest friends mean to me" is lost to us."
