This guy was telling me i was conceited and not modest for thinking im pretty. Then i told him after years of eating disorders and low self esteem i deserve to be happy with who i am so I AM pretty. he then changed his mind and acted all sympathetic.
Can someone tell me why guys are so absolutely harsh until it comes down to such a serious topic? Why cant they be a little nicer to begin with? :/

Some even act in this way just infront of their guy friends, its like between the guys, there is some kind of competition, and the cruelest one is the most manly or the leader of the group, you know, something like that, but between you and him or him and himself, he thinks differently and that is who he really is. So don't let that get to you, all guys are like this, its just their nature.
And to be honest, maybe alot of people would think that someone is conceited to think they're pretty and actually go around saying that they're pretty, but the difference is that he is bold and honest, so he said it out loud to you while others would secretly think it, but usually people think that cause they don't know whats really behind you thinking that you're pretty, i mean, how would he have known that you think that way cause your grateful after all that you went through, so he felt guilty about what he said, i wouldn't really say sympathetic, just guilty, so he acted nicely about it to make it up to you, i'm really sure he didn't mean anything, so don't get mad at him, people usually just blurt out stupid things, it doesn't make him harsh or mean, he really didn't know.
