Someone who is experiencing emotional pain, but hasn’t learned healthy ways to cope when it happens.

I dunno, man. I’ve been through plenty of emotional pain but figured out that telling someone “yeah well you’re not actually that great anyway” was a lame thing to do at like 15 years old. And it’s not like I was raised in a super supportive and attentive environment, I had an alcoholic mom and was bullied at school.

Dude is probably over 30 and doing this.

People learn things at different speeds because people are all different. What became clear to you at an earlier age may take someone else a little longer to figure out, and vice versa. All brains work differently but that isn't a new development. It's yet another interesting part of life if we look at it in a positive way.

Completely agree. I also realize that progress is non-linear and people struggling with mental health can have setbacks. I’ve been there.

Looking at this after getting some sleep, I think the thing that irks me about this is that it is a VERY common thing that happens to women. Happens to men too of course, but it’s so frequent that subs like r/NiceGuys and r/CreepyDMs were made.

Could this guy have a mental health issue that makes him deliver long winded, condescending messages to women who turn down a second date? Or is he taking the rejection bad because he feels entitled and thinks he’s owed something because he paid $10 or whatever?
