I think his headphones are turned on. He’s just pissed because his girlfriend is talking to another guy.

Guilty. I do this all the time at work haha
I did this now and then where I was volunteering, which is how I heard my boss badmouthing my depression as he was standing directly behind me. Ended up just quitting entirely very soon after, in part just out of a still-lingering sense of betrayal. He'd always been pretty great to joke around with in general, and my ass really thought we were on good terms for some reason. So. Don't eavesdrop unless you're ok with what you hear, I guess.
Oh man, that’s awful. I’m sorry you went through that. Really sucks thinking you’ve got someone in your corner, only to find out that they don’t actually take you/mental health seriously.
OMG I was literally did that right now. And (hopefully) not in a creepy way but I was just curious of what this one person sounded like. When he started speaking I paused my music for a little bit.
Sometimes it's also that you can't ignore the argument, but you also don't want to participate, so the earbuds are a clear way to indicate to leave you out of it.
Umm excuse me you stopping your conversation is overstepping my boundaries for this situation
