What's this weird behaviour?

One of my friends was telling me about a man she's seen a couple of times. Nothing serious. Some of his behaviour I'm just disgusted about though when she tells me.

For example, it's like he wants to make her insecure about other women. Like dropping comments about there being other women after him or potentially involved with him. She doesn't like it - finds it hurtful - and I think he knows that.

For example, he will mention about seeing someone else and when she thens asks him he'll deny anything is going on and say he's not interested in this other women because she's just after sex (which from what my friend says is her experience of him!)

A friend of his made a 'joke' about how he's shagged 4 of his colleagues since he's been there (worked there 6 months). Then when she asked him about it he denied it all and said that he had told everyone at work he is married. But then went on to talk about colleagues (including his boss) who clearly fancy him or have crushes on him.

They are not even in a relationship or anything so why bother? Just because it gets a reaction? Is he trying to make himself look way more popular than he actually is, or could it be something more insidious designed to manipulate her?

I've had an abusive relationship before with a man who couldn't tell the truth if he tried so I feel suspicious of this shit.
