-- Posted by Rabbit4U at 8:23 pm on June 7, 2008 From a guy's perspective, do you happen to know why some men (not all, I'm not generalizing) feel the need to do kinda douchebag things to their exgirlfriends? Example: A guy broke up with my friend right before they went to away to college, but they happened to go to the same college. He openly flirted with girls who lived on her floor and it hurt her a lot. He told her he didn't love her anymore.  And it was very unlike his nature to be mean, he is a really nice guy. Is there a possiblity something like that is done out of fear? Jealousy? Maybe he wants to know that he is desireable...or to prove that he's "not" hurting? Would there be any obvious reason to hurt an ex? (IF the ex never hurt you first or did anything bad..no cheating, nothing) And why such an abrupt decision to breakup forever? -- Posted by carnage44 at 8:24 pm on June 7, 2008 Jealousy, insecurity, immaturity. -- Posted by mattchew at 8:24 pm on June 7, 2008 Prove hes "not" hurting probably... or maybe hes just an ass. -- Posted by cruz122990 at 8:27 pm on June 7, 2008 erik said he is gay -- Posted by californiaboy at 12:14 pm on June 8, 2008 Yea all those you mentioned are possible reasons.
