A brief googling revealed the origin is a "old wives' tale that sexual excitement in men leads to a change in blood pressure, which can cause a nose bleed . In anime and manga, when characters get excited—often sexually excited—blood dribbles or squirts out of their noses. "excitement, like other emotions, are things we experience in our hearts.
I had always likened it as a sign of male virginity or inexperience. Considering men have no hymen to speak of, being so immediately aroused by something that didn't before, if said female is meant to make him into a man to woo her, this is in effect the deflowering if the male character.
As Beska notes in useful comments at the related question Does the “bloody nose” trope necessarily imply a sexual situation?,. I think it steps around the question: whether there is a difference between what is understood in normal Japanese society vs anime. and.

Hoewel we het niet altijd door hebben, is de manier waarop we met anderen communiceren sterk gekleurd door onze culturele achtergrond.

Plus, keep in mind the iron rule that no lecherous behavior in anime ever goes unpunished. Especially if the perpetrator is male.

Last but not least: There's also a very satisfying trend happening in recent years to have female characters react in exactly the same way. In fact, these days it can seem like you almost see it more often on females than on males... a trend that I totally welcome.
5. Real women don’ t compete with cartoon characters. Real women don’t need to compete with cartoon characters. Cartoon characters are not real. No reasonable person expects real women to compete with cartoon characters. No one says: “Hey, that Marilyn Monroe was kinda pretty, but she was nothing compared to Sailor Moon.”
No it doesn't really happen in real life. But then again: neither do blades "sing" just because they are sharp, nor do schools only have two teachers, nor do cell phones fail constantly... and so on. ( 1, 2, 3)
They blush when they are attracted to someone. Their face tends to go to a red hot state. Nosebleeds occur when they're having “perverted” thoughts. This can be loosely termed into being physically attracted (in other words, sexually aroused).
