Freak out and get mad if a girl is better than them at a sport? My friend Peter always gets mad when I beat him at soccer, even though I'm genuinely better than him. It's really annoying...

My sisters and I play soccer with our husbands. Sometimes we girls are pretty awesome (and sometimes not so much.) My husband thinks it's sexy when I do well on the field. I like it that he is man enough to not be intimidated by my success. This doesn't really solve your problem except to let you know that not all guys are like that.
Clearly a guy who gets upset about something like that is insecure (perhaps about a completely unrelated area of his life) and/or immature. Many teenage guys seem to struggle with this. Usually it gets better as they get older.
Try talking to him about it (if you haven't already.) Maybe you could point out some things you admire about him and remind him that everyone has unique abilities but no one can be the best at everything.

They do freak out.They think guys are much better than girls.So if a girl beat a guy on something,the guy gets mad.

Hello,
I never do that. My guy best friend is very competitive, but I accept that. He is better than me at basketball and baseball, but I am better then him at volleyball and soccer. We all have different talents that we should embrace, rather than focus on what we can't do.

My boyfriend is really competitive. Ive never beat him. But I think it would bug them or they'd pretend and be like good job but inside they'd be upset.

Makes sense. The male ego can be a fragile thing sometimes.

It's a guy macho thing. If it was your boyfriend or husband, you should let him think he beats you once in awhile.
I always appreciated it. Try not to be to obvious.
