Getting rejected when you ask someone out can be hard to handle.

In today’s story, one friend doesn’t like how her male friend responds to getting rejected, but now she’s wondering if she’s the one who did something wrong.

Let’s see how the story unfolds…

AITA for calling out the hypocrisy of an ‘alpha bro’

This one guy in my friend group (all early twenties mixed guy and girl, 7 in total, only good friends with 4 of them).

Has been consuming some ‘alpha bro’ content that has severely changed his personality and entitlement towards women.

He mentioned that this one girl he has been talking to for some time turned him down when he hit on her (she said he wasn’t her usual type but he was nice blah blah).

He made a comment that she didn’t like.

He was pretty bummed out and we all tried to console him the best way we could.

That was until he said ‘in 20 years when no one wants her, she will regret turning me down.’

She spoke up.

Me and the other girls were taken aback by this.

I should have kept my trap shut, but I said ‘it’s completely fine to turn down someone you aren’t attracted to, just like how you would have not asked her out if you weren’t attracted to her.’

The guys in the friend group supported him.

He was fuming and got up and left (the guys went with him).

This happened yesterday, and he blocked me.

She is wondering if she messed up.

The girls support me, but the guys aren’t saying anything.

I do think I should have said this later and not when he was actively hurting from the rejection. AITA?

Hopefully her friend thinks about what she said once the pain of rejection fades.

Let’s see how Reddit responded…

This reader thinks she did the right thing.

Another reader thinks it was perfect to speak up in front of the friend group.

This reader thinks she helped the other girls in the group.

Another person thinks this male friend is not a good friend to have.

This reader thinks poorly of all of the men in their friend group.

It sounds like her friend can’t handle hearing the truth.

So it’s no loss if he doesn’t want to be her friend anymore.
