Why does he act like nothing has happened after I rejected him?

[Anonymous]

Recently he asked me out where I declined and said I didn't see him that way. After a couple days we see it each other again and he's acting like nothing has happened. He still speaks to me but like how he would to anyone else. Why would he not get nervous and avoid me? I just feel like I'm the awkward one because I kinda fidget and act odd around him now after the rejection.

Maybe it's his way of dealing rejection. Absorb it, try to hide the pain and act naturally.

Which I think is one of the best ways to do.

That’s a guy thing. You did not hurt me or piss me off. VERY MATURE for a guy…

He's doing the right thing. You're in the wrong for overvaluing yourself and expecting that he feel crap. Why would you want him to feel bad about it? If anything, you should be glad he doesn't' care.

It sounds like you ARE the awkward one in this case. He's acting like nothing happened because nothing did happen. He asked you out, you said "no," so he moved on. Isn't that what men are supposed to do in situations like that?

Huh? Where does it say you have to act all awkward after being rejected? The only reason it's still an issue is because you are making it one..

Lol now you want him to feel the way you feel , but when you don't want to feel the way he feels about you lol 😆

What do you mean? That is normal. Is he supposed to be devastated or something?

[Jamie05rhs]

He's doing the correct thing. He accepted your response and moved on. How is that bad?

Why should he avoid you? He accepted your answer and he's moved on. He's handling it like a responsible adult. There's nothing to be ashamed of.

Because he's trying to avoid it becoming "awkward". The best way to achieve that is to act "normal".

[LazerBean]

Because that's what normal people do.

You sound upset that he's not upset. That's wrong.
