why do men sulk when you dont give the correct answer to them?

Only some men do this, and they probably do it for exactly the same reason that some women sulk when you dont give the correct answer to them.\n\nSome people react childishly.

I'm not sure. Maybe they want to make their answer more personal like they are really talking to the person whose question they're answering or maybe they are so used to talking to people like that in real life that it's just a habit.

Mine is like that too.. he will claim I heard wrong when I show him the real answer and change his answer to the real thing. Drives me up a wall.

people generally give important answers to silly questions because they respect theirs partners in conversation. you are a lucky person if you met these people. that means they respect you and the conversation, even though it is a silly one...

Some guys do, but most of them appreciate when you tell them how you feel in words.\n\nPersonally I think that's because most men don't like to read and also written words can be interpreted other ways. Spoke words can give a feel to what you are trying to say!\n\nThat's what I think, but I may be right....

Some people cannot communicate their thoughts as well as others. And yes the answers are out there for them to find, but you become their resource when you agree to answer their questions.

It's common in men. Just smile and nod at appropriate times to feed his ego.

Sometimes it can be because men let them get away with it.  Boundaries, dude.  Be assertive without being a jerk.  Say no if no is the right answer, and you don't need to apologize if you are avoiding being placed in a compromising position.\n\nSome women are raised from day one to believe that men are here to provide for them.  Run away!

I do not know what you are talking about. If a man tries to talk to you and you tell them that you are involved or not interested, you become a snob. Sometimes womwn are just not interested!!

They CAN make up their minds...often, they just don't want to. Or they know that their girlfriend won't like the decision, so they put off sharing it. If a guy refuses to make up his mind, he's still giving you an answer in an indirect way. It may not be the one that you want, but it's an answer nonetheless.\n\nDr. Barb Nefer, http://www.bnlifeskills.com

Because they are insecure. Do you give them a reason not to trust you? That's where questions usually originate in this fashion.

sometime people choose the answer they want to hear. you may give the best advice but it not what they want.

It's the stubborness. And I'm sure every man has it. Wouldn't admit even if they're wrong. A disability to listen. Answering without listening the question. Later be surprised as the first time to know the question...and for giving the wrong answer. Happened all the time, with all the exes and guys friends. Doubt it can be changed. It's in the blood.

same goes for people who ask questions? do they realize they corner answerers to answer a rhetorical question shamefully, or do they actually want an opinion.

Because they want a response out of you, they want to believe that it hurts you by them not talking to you, sounds silly doesn't it lol

In many cases when people do this, it's because they feel insecure, and being "right" helps them to feel better.  You can simply let them win, assuming that whatever they're saying doesn't matter that much.  You can say something like, "That's an interesting idea."
