Hi,

Things such as the below have been happening to me for years.

Today, in the morning, I was filling up my car when I saw a 30 year old man dressed 'thuggishly' staring at me from the opposite pump and when I looked back at him, he said "What are you looking at?" Like what the ****? He was the one staring at me!I hold my ground in these situations and for this one, I replied with "Good Evening" even though it was the morning so he ended up looking confused.

The same afternoon I was walking down high street to find a place to eat when I realize that there are men staring at me with their gf's and when I look back at them, they do not break eye contact and in general they just feel hostile.

I have been involved in street fights since I was a young kid and I do not fear these people if it came down to violence. However, these sorts of stares have been getting more intense and frequent.

I am 5'10, 22 years old and am generally respectful to people but why is it that men want to start a fight with me, especially when their gf's are around. It gives off insecure vibes like I am trying to take away what they have

To the men reading this, please just work on yourself and improve so much that you no longer need to feel insecure. Projecting the insecurity on people that appear to be doing better than you will only limit your opportunities and put you in bad favor within their eyes.

Hey the possibilities are ur really attractive so other men automatically see u as a threat especially if they catch their girl eyeing u down before u even look their way. Icl u gotta be careful tho cuz if they end up swinging a jaw at u it aint gonna end well. Or someone's been going around the neighbourhood talking bs about u saying u steal ppl's gfs or sum ****.

Hold on that doesn’t make sense if him being an attractive man he’d have pretty much all the girls after him.

If he was taken or too shy/has the fear of rejection probably girls wouldn’t initiate any form of contact nor he makes movement. I think logical reasons is girls are after him.

Could be for anything not just looks so he maybe attractive with that may come money and wealth, you’ll say nobody will try to initiate contact with you for the sake of using you and your money to gold dig you.

All comes from insecurity. It’s a compliment man.
