women get like that when they're rejected too.

Thank you. This is just a reaction shitty people can have regardless of gender. If their fragile ego can't handle a rejection they go to anger and insults immediately. So bizarre.

Seriously, all the same 'plays' too:

  • lol rofl you think I was actually asking?
  • you're ugly anyway
  • (if the rejection is based on you already being in a relationship) she's ugly, you'll never find someone as hot as me
  • (if you're single) you're gay/you're a f*ggot
  • (slur related to your race, more common if the rejected is of a different race)

Seems like you speak out of experience. Sorry for you. It's sad that so many people forget how to treat each other respectfully.

Mine and friends, yes. I appreciate the sympathy. I'm with the woman of my dreams now, though, so I'm optimistic I'll never be exposed to it again. :)

"Men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will kill them."

There's a reason Margaret Atwood was the person who pointed this out.

Classic Margaret.
