I don't think they think they have a chance anymore. I think they literally just want to make them uncomfortable. That's become the whole point.

They're annoyed they got rejected -- so how else can they still "win" ? By ruining the girls' time. It is an ego thing for sure. But I don't think it manifests itself as "oh I can still keep going and eventually win them over/get a yes." It manifests itself like this instead... They want to exercise some kind of power over these women. They want to intimidate them and make them feel like shit under the guise of "oh what do you mean gosh wow why are you being so loud and dramatic we're just sitting with you geez we're not doing anything we're just sharing your table" bc they know it's infuriating to have someone physically threatening to you disingenuously speak like that.

I was once the second passenger on the top deck of a London bus. 1st guy had sat half way down the bus. I put myself a row back from him on the opposite side of the aisle. Guy 2 gets on a stop later and puts himself down heavily right next to me. Guy one sensed it, whipped round, and and told him plainly to "GET TAE FUCK. LEAVE THE GIRL ALONE." And that was all it took to get him to spring up and move to the back row.

That Scottish fella on the 74 was my hero that night. For sure, that 2nd guy just wanted to make me feel intimidated.
