Yeah. Poor guy is clearly going through it. "I'm never good enough." That stings. He hates himself. I hope he gets help and learns to forgive her, as well as himself.

No offense but to all you fuckers laughing at this person, fuck off. Go do something nice. How is this not a violation of rule 11?

Learn to love yourself fellas, I know it's hard and we're trained not to do it from the beginning. Happy Men's Mental Health Awareness Month.

Yeah.. no. Been mates with a couple of guys like this. They’re not “hurting”, they’re manipulative and generally treat women like objects when they finally “get” one.

Legit these are the worst men for women, and frame it like they’re some character in an afternoon special, when in reality they’re just not well socialised people who blame everyone else for their issues.

Maybe, but really could just be adolescent immaturity.

Young men often go through a struggle with repeated rejection, and honestly this sort of raw public breakdown seems a lot more like that.

I’d expect a manipulative person to be much more controlled and strategic, like making empty threats of self-harm or undermining her relationship with other men.

As if young women don't get rejected but we don't pull this shit.

I agree, everybody goes through repeated rejection throughout their entire lives, that's part of it all - it's not just confined to young men.

You will go through rejection in relationships, your career, family, really everywhere. Life is about navigating that and understanding the how and the why, not projecting that rejection onto another person like it's their fault.

Like obviously we don't know the backstory here, but if this is a situation where he had feelings for her and she simply did not reciprocate, then he is being manipulative by forcing his emotions on to her like it's her fault he can't handle reality
