Why do guys often go through a “ h0e phase “ after a break up? what does it mean?

[Anonymous]

[SiberFox]

Probably to make himself feel better, it's stupid though

[Asker]

could he be regretting the break up? or is it just to gain self esteem?

[SiberFox]

Could be either, could be he's just a manwhore and better to forget him if that the case

[RobEurope]

Bad behaviors like this often result from negative emotions.

[Asker]

can these negative emotions emerge from feelings of regret or loss?

[RobEurope]

Certainly. If we want to make positive emotions we should have positive behzviors. Like selfcare.

[Asker]

so he could possibly miss my friend? even if he chose to break up with her? does him glancing at her mean anything as well?

[RobEurope]

Probably. Softening the pain or looking for replacements.

[Asker]

would it make any other difference if one of his bsfs thinks that he could possibly still like my friend?

[RobEurope]

I think so. Love doesn't stop from one day to another.

[Asker]

the thing is , he broke up with her because he started liking another girl , they didn’t end up dating because she friend zoned him , so i don’t understand how he could possibly still have a chance of loving her after that , can you help me understand? i’m trying to help my friend 😅

[RobEurope]

Yeah thats not so respectful, now he's trying to back. He learned what he lost now lol. I would say your friend can get him back but needs to set boundaries.

[Asker]

how would you help her if your were in my position? i usually would know what to say to her but i’m confused myself , is there a way that could make him ask her out again? because i know she’s way too shy to do ask him out

[RobEurope]

See if he comes back. Then she can flirt with him.

[Asker]

the thing is they haven’t talked in months and it’s awkward between them , why could she maybe end the awkwardness?

[RobEurope]

Do group activities. Barbeque, cinema, etc.

[jshm2]

It's called "on the rebound" and technically you're the hoe they're trying to get over.

[boggboss]

Shows he is enjoying his sexual freedom

[Asker]

so he’s glad he broke up with her and feels no further regret?

[boggboss]

I can't know if he feels no further regret inside

[Asker]

ok , thank you for your help :)

Immature child BUT not fear of Loss...

[Guy13]

do you get that?

[Asker]

do you mean that him breaking up with her then going through a “ h0e phase “ means that it wasn’t a loss for him?

[Guy13]

As an immature being, yes. Thank you for working through guy mind ;-) If he will throw the "Term" and make lesser Object (people) then that is a disregard of all things human. Wife, child, dog... How does he treat hi Aunt etc...

[Asker]

would it make a difference if his family knew about their relationship? would it make him feel like he has to find the next girl quickly?

[Guy13]

It would likely mean that he has you.-Seek other-Got that one as she's met my family. Let's see how this works out...

[Asker]

what do you mean by this? i’m having a hard time understanding 😅

[Iron_Man]

Usually they wouldn’t do it in fear of losing you

[Asker]

well a friend of mine is going through a break up and her ex boyfriend has recently started going through a “ h0e phase “ , but she can still often catch him glancing at her , does this have an underlying meaning?

[Iron_Man]

That’s because he’s a bad guy I would never do that in the break up with my girlfriend

[Asker]

well it was after , a bit after the break up she heard some of his friends saying he has “ 3 new gfs “ and “ 20 h0es in his dms “ , could this mean anything?

[Iron_Man]

I would never do that for chances of getting back together with her that is a bad guy it’s very simple

[Asker]

thank you for your help :)

[Iron_Man]

You’re very welcome

[LoveforYou]

I don't anything about it

[Asker]

what do you mean by this? do you mean you wouldn’t go through a “ h0e phase “ ? or that it’s a natural thing that guys do?

[LoveforYou]

I meant I donknow anything about it

[Asker]

ok , thank you for answering tho !

[In_Trance]

What do you think it means?

[Asker]

possibly that he’s bored or feels lonely , im not sure tbh
