What Happens When an Aries Man is Upset?

An Aries man might withdraw if he’s feeling sad. He won’t always reach out for support. On the other hand, he may also lash out in anger to hide his genuine emotions.

Aries men often need an emotional outlet. They don’t always know how to handle their feelings and will often hide them. They need to learn how to channel their emotions instead of suppressing them.

Sometimes, it’s best to let an Aries man calm down on his own. Pushing him to talk about his feelings will just make things worse.

He Might Withdraw

When an Aries man is sad, he might withdraw from everyone around him. He likely won’t want people to see that he’s depressed or miserable.

Some Aries men think certain emotions show weakness, but this obviously isn’t true! Everyone gets sad, scared, etc. An Aries man needs time to learn that.

If an Aries man can’t hide his feelings and pretend everything is okay, he will keep to himself.

He might stay at home more often than usual. You may notice that he starts canceling plans or doesn’t want to go out as much as he typically does.

If your Aries man seems quiet and antisocial, he might be upset about something, and he just doesn’t want to tell you.

He’ll Become Insecure

Upsetting an Aries man can cause him to feel insecure about your relationship. If you hurt his feelings or do something to betray him, he will likely start questioning your relationship, even if it’s only for a short moment.

An Aries man might start to feel insecure any time he gets sad. Many Aries men think of themselves as being “above” certain emotions.

An Aries man might feel like he shouldn’t feel sad and that he’s weak for feeling the way he feels. That may make him insecure about his masculinity or his self-image.

Your Aries man may become even more insecure if he can’t hide his feelings or get over them. Many Aries men pride themselves on masking their sadness and will become even more upset if they can’t.

He Might Not Talk About It

An upset Aries man will not often want to talk about whatever is upsetting him. It takes Aries men a long time to learn that they can turn to other people for support when they’re upset.

If you Aries man won’t talk about what’s upsetting him, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t trust you. He could trust you more than anyone else and still not want to open up about why he’s sad.

He May Lash Out

When an Aries man is stressed and doesn’t correctly deal with his emotions, he may lash out. He can only ignore his feelings for so long before he explodes.

This doesn’t mean that Aries men are violent. An Aries man might lash out by picking fights, becoming more impulsive, or acting in a way he usually wouldn’t. It doesn’t mean he’s going to become physically violent.

What makes an Aries man upset? If an Aries man is already upset, anything can set him off.

Needs An Emotional Outlet

When an Aries man is upset, he won’t always go to someone for support. To work through his emotions, he will usually need some sort of outlet.

If an Aries man doesn’t want to talk to you about how he’s feeling, exercise and other physical activity is often a great emotional outlet.

Going for a run or spending some time at the gym can be a healthy way to work through volatile emotions for an Aries man.

You might feel like talking about things is the best course of action, but that won’t always be the case! Your Aries man might not know how to talk about how he feels.

He may also just need to let off some steam before he can express himself. If an Aries man is feeling extremely agitated, he may not be in a position to talk. He needs to physically let off some steam first.

Can’t Always Handle His Feelings

It is very common for Aries men to be unable to handle their feelings. Many feel things very deeply, but they don’t know how to express their wide range of emotions.

Anger is one “negative” emotion that Aries men do express. An Aries man might try to hide it if he’s sad, afraid, overwhelmed, etc., but anger is usually easier for him to communicate.

Aries men don’t always know how to handle their wide range of emotions. An Aries man who seems angry might be feeling something else. He just doesn’t know how to express himself.

Most Aries men need help from someone who is more emotionally open and mature. They need someone to model a healthy way to express emotions so that they can learn how to do that themselves.

Might Avoid You

If an Aries man is upset with you, he might avoid you. He may also avoid you if he is upset and doesn’t want to talk about it.

If an Aries man avoids you, try not to take it personally. He might be embarrassed because of how he’s feeling. If he is incredibly depressed, he might not want you to see him like that.

He might also avoid you when he’s upset because of you so that he doesn’t lash out. If an Aries man knows he has an explosive temper, he may take time away from you so that he doesn’t lash out at you.

May Hide Sadness

Sadness is one emotion that many Aries men don’t know how to handle. They often mask their sadness with other feelings or with apathy.

Your Aries man won’t always tell you when you’ve hurt his feelings. He might try to ignore how upset he feels and squash down any feelings of sadness.

Some Aries men hide sadness with anger as well. You might think that your Aries man is constantly mad when really he’s feeling depressed and doesn’t know how to deal with it.

Other Aries men will put on a brave face and try to appear happy, even when they’re miserable. If your Aries man seems perfectly fine after a death in the family or something else that should make him sad, he’s probably not actually okay.

Many Aries men need to learn that it’s okay to feel sadness. They need to figure out how to allow themselves to be upset.

Needs Time To Calm Down

May Become More Impulsive

Your Aries man might also spend more money than usual to deal with his emotions. He might become a thrill-seeker as well. He may just be trying to do anything to avoid dealing with how he feels.
