I'd say he suffered from emotional confusion, with a possible dose of immaturity. One problem guys often have with their own feelings is a lack of experience sorting through several of them at once, especially if their strong. Just a guess but he probably was dealing with a strong desire to please your friend (because he wanted to be found pleasing and attractive), a fear of commitment, and a fear of being alone and possibly more. At least two of those can be confused as love by a guy who's trying to logic his way through something that's inherently not primarily about logic. And the third, the fear of commitment, would be a good reason for him spending a few hours panicking by himself over what he'd gotten himself into by professing feelings for a girl and then suddenly call her and say he wanted out.
It's also entirely possible he's simply a manipulative liar that's jerking her around for his own reasons, but if there's no obvious thing he gets out of manipulating her feelings, I'd bet on confusion.
Well he probbably loves her but he has reflected on all memories and reminded himself of some bad ones, maybe something that hurted him so maybe thoughts reminded him as well why he doesn't want to be with her.
There are many reasons for this and I don't know your friend or the guy so I might be wrong but I think some guys like the chase - they are only interested in the guy or girl when they think the person is difficult to obtain - once they conclude the relationship is a lot easier than they originally thought - they are no longer interested in them.
Good answer Ms. Bloom
He might have some psychological issues there...
@ultimega 👍 But I've seen many do that as am sure most girls have
I agree with you but that seems a little too fast
Yes and thank you

Either the original statement was a lie, or he has some psychological damage or mental health issues. Guys get abused growing up too, even though the world tends to focus more on helping women, and those guys are often pretty messed up as adults. They just don't talk about it nearly as much.
But, yeah, a normal, emotionally-balanced person doesn't go hot to cold like that. That's a big red flag for a relationship.
Men are not emotional creatures like women
They deal in fact and logic.
Decisions are made without thought of consequences from an emotional standpoint
Your girlfriend should be glad he moved on. She needs a thoughtful man that cares about her feelings and emotions
He migt have been going through some emotional difficulties in another p art of his life which spilled over into the relationship.
Thank you sir
Maybe he's bipolar? Sounds sketchy. Perhaps he heard some gossip/rumor about her? Anyhow, she's better off without him. Anyone who can act so hot and cold that quickly and without a good reason is not worthy of keeping around.
I don't think this is a male thing.
He sounds bipolar but that would be a fast turn around. Anyhow some other mental disorder.
Some are just not ready for any kind of relationship.
I love this pic! Put this instead of the lion.
They don’t have them in the first place. That is how!
He was just saying what she wanted hear. Plenty of guys do that just for the quiet life
He's a liar and never actually loved her he was using her till he finds someone better because like you said owl girl, no one changes like this...
I think you are confusing "men" with humans.
I don't know never dated woman
woman are more like that than men but nearly everyone is like that. And dating has nothing to do with it.
It probably matters whom you're talking about, after all everyones different. As far as him and he's action I think is few things, 1 could be he thought it through and for some reason just had change of hearts, 2, he's testing out her reaction, 3 he didn't get the reaction he thought he would when he did so.
I think a lot of guys dont know how to deal with their emotions
my self included. alone, he thinks to himself, and his head fills with doubt. But when he is with her, his heart fills with passion. this is bad. it means he doesn't want to be with her, but still kinda cares about her?
Personally, I can act really incredibly impulsively on random emotions that pop up completely contrary to what I felt earlier.
Yjank you
I have been through a lot of shit so i get a little scared about getting close to anyone. Even friends. Like if I am chatting with girl for any reason, I get a little scared so I start being a dick just so she would get away/block me and not talk to me again.
Dunno. I'm not like that. It takes me months or even years analyzing a breakup. Takes me a long time to lose the emotions.
It could be he never really felt anything for her in the first place, and finally went honest. Or he had a better offer.
A good man doesn't lead a woman on. But if he's going to break it off, he should at least have the courage to tell her why.
Well either he loves her or doesn't. He's lying in one of the conversations.
Missed his meds. Or never had them.
Feelings that is
I don't do that so I don't understand it either lol
