WHY IS IT THAT SOME GUYS ACT HARD AND NEVER SHOW THEIR TRUE FEELINGS?

LOL... Im not laughing at the question, but I'm laughing at the fact I asked myself that very same thing about a year ago. I met a guy online. He was a total bad ass which i loved cuz it drove me crazy (yum lol)but still i wanted communication from him at the same time.he would never show any emotion, never shown any anything really! till one day he snapped... I found out about his childhood,... ex's, what made him tick... EVERYTHING! I found out just why he was the way he was. I also found out that I was soo much the same way. People normally act that way cuz they have been hurt many times... in 95% of the worlds mind they believe that the softer u are and the more trusting that u are and the more u act like u really do give a shit about life, themselfs, there baby (girl) etc.. the more things happen to them that are bad. I have seen it 1st hand soooo many times... in fact my friends have done it! they find a great guy, and as soon as he opens up to them and talks and makes an effort to be REAL.... BAM! they screw him 9 ways from sunday! The man that I was telling u about in the first part of this little note is now engaged to me:) He finally opened up to me. And when he realized that he COULD trust me and COULD love me without me being a (well in his eyes a "typical woman") he fell so deeply inlove with me. and here we are:) and I love him so much. SO... Be trusting to him, give him space BUT at the same time let him know that u are there for him...one day he will open to u. AND... NEVER EVER judge ANYTHING that he tells you... I dont care if its gross, or nasty or what! dont judge him cuz if he feels that u will run off then he will never share his feeling with u. Dont burn him just gain his trust and love him. weather it befor a friend or more... just be there for him!

It's true, guys have feelings too. We are just wired in a different way.  Our basic instinct after puberty is sex sex sex, but then when we find somebody special, then we  fall in love, and we look more towards companionship. Problem isthat some men give us all a bad name, and that it isn't really....accepted....in a traditional masculine way to show emotions. Kinda like how most men struggle to figure out what a woman wants.

Because they want to show that they are tough but really most men are sensitive and it takes a really devoted girl to make them show their feelings and sensitivity.

Because guys don't spend TIME discussing their FEELINGS aloud.  Men don't demean their personal "relationships" by feeding an obsession to "discuss" them.\n\nUnless.  They are seeking to manipulate a woman they don't care about.  If they are this kind of Casanova, then, yes, they are articulate about how they "feel."\n\nSo the guy who speaks long and eloquently about how he feels is very likely to rip you off!

Don't Know, ask the guy himself. only him can really give the main reason for not showing his emotion. maybe his afraid you might break his heart or you might take him for a ride if he shows you how he really feels about you. he just scare, doesn't wanna get hurt

Guys know that if they just say they want to hang out and have fun, that most girls will not have sex with them. They don't want to get serious so, they pretend that they care and know they don't. Honesty is not something most guys can handle themselves.

Sometimes it's just a way to cover up feelings of insecurity and inadequacy.  A real man who is capable of feelings and is generous and considerate does not need to act this way.  Bypass a guy who is self centered and a player

Many girls like guys who act hard because they are usually good girls and want someone who is on the wild side.  At my school, all of the guys who act hard are the cutest ones.  Maybe you should at least ask your friends why they like the guys they do.

some probably are and some think they are... sometimes some say it as a way to apologize and its what they think u wanna hear...depends on the guy i guess in what they really feel and maybe @ the moment they feel they love u but maybe its more like lust or obsession also..some guys arent aware of what they actually feel... or they are thinkin about sexual love than TRUE LOVE

Guys, afraid to love? You must be kidding! Guys are warm & affectionate & generous with their emotions. We share and confide and console. I can't imagine WHAT you're talking about.\n\n(Actually, most guys are like your boyfriend. We don't learn to express our emotions very effectively and, when we're young, we feel so many different things depending on what our hormones are doing that day, that we don't know WHAT to express when we WANT to express it. Best thing for you, just move on. You'll find someone.)

Honestly men are divided even amongst themselves on this matter. For example, many are out for the one night stand... they are very easy to spot by BOTH sexes. Then there are the "I'm not sure I want a relation" guy who teases and then when it comes to the moment of truth, they flake. Then there are the type that just loves YOU... the feeling that you give when you talk seriously, when you smile.... and this is a killer... being you and standing for what you believe... being a woman. Of course we men are programmed to go wherever the opportunity is... but trust me when I write that there is a small percentage of us who dream and wish for a real woman to come our way and be our life partner.

Guys don't actually know that they are acting stupid. Its just the nervousness that causes us to do things that we shouldn't. \nA guy tries all his best not to get the girls rejection. In this attempt, he does things he otherwise won't. But you girls should really appreciate it anyway, after all; we do it all for you!\nanyways was a good funny question.

He probably would not show it.  Most of us guys have fragile egos and wouldn't risk exposing those deep DEEP down, tucked away feelings, no matter how strong they are and no matter how much it hurts us to keep it in...Yeah, stupid.

if you find the answer tell me plz. Guys are hard to understand, they never know what they want and are too prideful, well most guys.

not all men are weak, they are just unsure how to say what they feel, men's emotions don't mature for many years beyond what their bodies do.

some guys have a hard time expressing their feelings, its not the manly thing to do, which is a shame because its what us girls want to hear. all you can do is tell him how you feel, either by talking to him or writing to him. some men are able to write there feeling down rather then talking about them. when he feels more at ease im sure he will be able to tell you his feelings.

well that macho acting guy,is weak, so weak he cant even tell or express his true side, for me i would not love or enjoy being with this pretentious man and just leave him alone, i dont want men always acting like jerks why cant they just be brave and humble and express what they feel so that we both could be happy, i hate it when they are too afraid and hide themselves in this macho mask,,,shame on this men
