A man in Singapore is seeking more than $2 million in legal damages against a woman who he said caused him trauma after she rebuffed his romantic advances and told him she saw him only as a friend.

The man, identified as drone racing executive K. Kawshigan in legal documents, alleged in a defamation lawsuit set to be heard in Singapore’s High Court next week that the woman’s rejection caused him “sustained trauma” and “reductions in his earning capacity.” The suit, which the woman is contesting, seeks about $2.3 million in damages for the alleged harm of being friend-zoned.

A separate case filed by Kawshigan in Singapore’s Magistrate Court was struck down last month for abuse of process, and the woman’s lawyers said Kawshigan was ordered to pay her legal costs. In that suit, he had sought nearly $17,000, alleging that the woman had breached an “offer” she made that included “offering room for [Kawshigan] to share inspiration, struggle and achievements” and “meeting up based on mutual availability, beyond coffee settings.”

The woman had argued that the suit seeking $17,000 was abuse of process because it was “brought for an ulterior purpose” to force her to “comply with his demands to, among other things, resume communications with him.”

The lawsuit illustrates a challenge faced by women around the world: That men sometimes feel entitled to their affection. “Women do not owe men their time or attention, much less their friendship, love, sexual activity or emotional labor,” Aware Singapore, which advocates for women’s rights and gender equality, said in a statement regarding the lawsuit. “Attempting to demand or coerce these things, via legal means or otherwise, can constitute harassment.”

5. Male entitlement writ large. Not too far off from men saying, "Your feelings

don't matter. You must have a baby."

And even if this just amounts to lawyer fees from this woman, that's a lot of money just to keep this disgusting creep off her.

14. Dear gawd what a pathetic loser.

Now I doubt anybody would ever date him after this ridiculous display of stupidity.

He should probably go load up on ammo and become the incel superman he wants to be.
