Owencore is a term that often describes a man who thinks he’s a “nice guy.” He acts flirty in that awkward tiktok way, nerdy but charming, and uses “:3” to seem funny or genuine. However, he feels entitled to date anyone who shows him even an ounce of kindness or interest—even if he’s already in a relationship.
If you reject him, break up with him, or even just say you’re uncomfortable, he will usually do one of four things:
1. Play the victim and spread rumors about you.
2. Go full emo and change his profile picture to black.
3. Threaten to kill himself.
4. Act overly hurt and sulky.

You meet a guy in your friend group who seems sweet at first—he calls you “bestie” and sends you cat memes with “:3” at the end. After a few weeks, you politely tell him you’re not interested in dating him and sends back a long paragraph with words like,"Guess I’m the villain now..." and "I guess I was never good enough…”
