I'm sure it's some kinda syndrome... He believes that if he keeps bothering you, he'll either:

1. Gain your sympathy
2. Pique your interest on something
3. Be led to believe he's an integral part of your life such that he cannot stop contacting you...

Or he just wants to listen to himself talk. I know I do sometimes. :p

normally i would, but he's already said that women who forgive men are dumb.

Ahem... ^

Did he actually get to you, or are you just worried about becoming a "dumb woman" in his eyes if he realizes he offended you, and you let it slide?

it was kinda an eye opener to what he actually thinks of women in general.
he thinks that woman should forgive the man she was seeing who was lying to her and actually married.
and being that "women are dumb", she will forgive him.

do i still care about this guy? yes.
but i don't know how to get by this one.

if you feel he did it intentionally to include you, move on and don't worry about it, block is emails and tell him to go f*ck himself. you people are too nice. if somebody really pisses me off / truely disrepects me = ban for life, i don't need that sh!t.

but in your case, he probably isn't implying you and if you to are good friends, he may have been talking assuming that you would know he wasn't implying you in the equation, happens all the time, guys think with the lower head too much, and he is also probably correct that the other guy will get the girl to forgive him. some women are just dumb though...sorry to break it to you.

i must admit that when i was younger - 18 or so, i was a really nice guy and would treat women with respect the way one should, ended up getting sh!t on all the time and placed into the friend category. i couldn't understand it. i started to treat girls like sh!t and the phone wouldn't stop ringing, pretty sad...

If it's worth your time to enlighten him, do it. If he replaceable, continue with the freeze. :)

if he would have said, "some" women are just dumb.. well fine, some are.
but he made a general statement.

such a catch-22 though because i don't consider myself dumb and if i budge on this i'll feel like one of his dumb forgiving women.

just ignore it. he'll give up eventually. why make the effort if it doesn't really bother you where things are?

not trying to p!ss you off as i don't even know you, but many women are dumb as are many men.

it appears that you have feelings for him, maybe that is skewing your judgement.

i do have feelings for him otherwise i wouldn't give what he said a thought.

i may try that approach and tell him men are dumb too, but he'll just agree to appease me. :roll:

If ths is just a difference of opinion, the only thing you can do is try to argue with him and then drop it. :confused:

Well, you asked "Ignore him or reply and bitch?" The above suggestion was to reply (but in a polite way) since he's not getting the fact that you're ignoring him.

Just curious, are you reading his new emails or just deleting them? If the former, is he getting the hint that you're pissed off?

this is not the way a relationship should start....if he already p!sses you off, it will be much worse if you two are an item...

ah, silent treatments work way too good on me. i'd rather have someone spazz out and tell me how they feel! if i was being ignored, i'd probably drop a few little ak's just to gauge the other person's reaction and see if we still had a connection or if i burned the bridge.

i'm reading them, but not responding. who has the willpower to just delete them without reading them? very few people i would say.

sure he knows i don't like what he said, he mentioned it.
