Hurts their ego ( coming from a guy)

52

Most men do not have a fully secure sense of self and project their anger and resentment onto their partner (psychological transference) that is exposed when they are hurt or rejected.

Sour grapes

they are mean

context matters if the woman was respectful and politely declines and the man insults, its a man child’s ego if the woman was fairly rude its easy to match energy and a lot of men refuse to be the bigger person

I’ve honestly never understood why other guys do this. For example I got rejected by a girl and I’ve still said nothing but nice things about her

I think it’s funny if a man ever insults me after i reject him 😁😁

Wouldn’t know, I don’t get rejected 💀

I have gotten rejected and never done this as a man but doing the “mature” thing like that has never really benefited me besides just causing less conflict

It depends on who you’re dealing with. But in cases when someone does this it’s usually a sign of immaturity. You feel that you’re making yourself vulnerable when you approach someone you are opening yourself up to a painful experience, ie being rejected. And since a lot of people haven’t learned how to handle things like that they resort to the childish “you hurt me so I’ll hurt you.” Mentality.

I think it’s funny it’s men this men that why can’t we just all agree that we are both sides of the same coin where we all suck at something. Men may struggle with emotional outbursts because no one has ever taught us about emotion. All we were taught is that it’s bad and it builds up to a breaking point. But on the other hand, women have never really been taught how to treat a man and severely lack some degree of accountability. We both suck that’s how it is

People lash out when they are angry in ways they think will hurt the person that caused that feeling. Men were taught from a young age not to call women those things, so when insecure men get rejected that is what they do to lash out.
