    maybe because he doesn't feel that he is good enough for her, so trying to bring down her self esteem so he would have a better chance

    I know, but that's just how some guys are... I (a guy) don't like or understand it either, and it just makes the good guys out there look worse

    They say it because they like you so much that they're afraid you won't like them back... so they put u down (like get them before they get me kinda thing)

    Either that or they just don't really like you.

    It is a pick-up artist technique. You basically destroy the girl's self-esteem, and make her want to have your approval by putting her down repeatedly. Thus she will want to date and have sex with you.
