Gals, you know what I'm talking about. The guy who rattles around in the big pickup truck he doesn't need with the gun he never shoots in the back window is one example. Another is the type who is always blathering on loudly, talking over the top of others in an attempt to be paid some attention.

Maybe they have measured themselves in some way against other men and find themselves lacking.

My sweety and I were out over the weekend, and a guy just like that inserted himself into the conversation with our friends and the two of us and was just irritating as hell!

How do you deal with these types? I mean, I kinda feel sorry for them on some level, but they can be very difficult.

Just got another "sign." lol

Does anyone have anything for this thread? The guy over the weekend was blathering on and on about his heritage and how his name means "ruler of rulers" and he is the "chief of chiefs." Then at closing time he rode away on his Schwinn! He was getting really up in my guy's face inside, though, and I wound up having to get the bartenders to get rid of him.

Maybe he has a small penis.

Can you ignore him? Act uninterested in what he has to say? Make up some excuse then leave?

I have an acquaintance like this, and every time he starts bragging about himself my brain just totally shuts off. I thank God every day that I don't hang out him that often, if at all.

That's what my sweety tried to do. He told him he had respect for his heritage and whatnot, and the guy just kept pushing like he wanted something to happen. We don't even know this guy. Guys like that just force themselves into your situation, like it or not.

Like I said, must be a small penis. It's funny, because you can see some of that behavior on message boards as well.

Thank goodness for the ignore button.

Some call it the alpha male syndrome, others the peacock syndrome, I just call it insecurities. Whenever I go out and see dudes act like this, I just laugh to myself, or with the ladies around me .

Personally I don't know what makes the guys do these things, because maybe I don't have the desire for attention, make an ass of myself, or try to make an ass out of someone else.

The way I look at it, is the more people try to draw attention to something, is because they are really trying to draw attention from something else.
