Why are other men so intimidated by attractive men?

[Anonymous]

So I’m a handsome guy about 6’4 slim build some people say I look like I could model and I’ve noticed guys are always intimidated by me. And it’s to the point where I’ve learned to pick up on it. It’s like they always try to assert dominance over me by either not moving if we’re walking down a path or like holding doors and I’m not talking about casually holding the door I’m talking like going through the door completely then holding it as I walk by like fuck that! Or they constantly want to offer help it’s almost always like passive aggressive behavior. One day while at work I was literally walking past this one guy we locked eyes I could tell he was intimidated because he looked down really fast for whatever reason, he then proceeds to brush by me saying “excuse me” while walking off fast and it took everything in me not to punch him in the back of the head. Another situation like this with a former coworker who thought I wanted his girlfriend (we all worked together) this guy was like 5’4 at most and he was being very childish acting like a high schooler him and the supervisor were plotting on me I think they were trying to get me fired. I wanted to beat his ass but I took the high road which I’ll never do again. I ended up leaving that job anyway but These situations have made me a more aggressive person it’s like I don’t trust anyone. If someone is being too friendly towards me which most people are I suspect something is up. It’s too the point where I won’t even accept the help. Why are so many men like this?

Assuming anyone is intimidated by you is very cocky.

From my experience if guys constantly want to assert dominance over another man typical they feel threatened or intimidated I don’t mean to come off cocky

Do you think you just come off a little agressive and hot headed and people don’t like that?

[Asker]

my natural resting face is kinda aggressive looking even when I don’t mean to come off that way but I don’t talk much either so I think that plays a part and they can’t read me. Im just not that friendly and I failed to mention I’m kinda heavily tatted so that might set people off before getting to know me. Either way fuck them I’m prepared for fights if that’s what it leads to at this point.

Lol weirdly me and you are the same way. I’m heavily tatted too and a little hot headed, but I think the issue may be that being ready to fight isn’t always a good thing? Getting automatically aggressive without thinking is kind of unhealthy.

I'm not intimidated by anyone or anything. I'm confident
