My boyfriend gets angry when I beat him at chess...?

He wins most games but then whenever I win a game, he gets angry and starts a fight about something seemingly unrelated. I’ve noticed this pattern.. He’s a good player and I enjoy playing with him. How do I get him to play chess with me again?

    Not good to be a sore loser. Others might not want to play with him.

    No man likes to lose at anything. Especially to a woman. When they do it attacks their ego, and makes them feel like a lesser man. You should explain to him that it is only a game. It doesn't matter who wins or looses. And the two of you are just playing for fun.

    This is not a good sign. A minor red flag that could mean worse to come.

    I would talk to him about his behavior. It is not normal. Yes, you don’t want to loose, yes it could make him grumpy,   but it should never cause a fight.
