Michael needed a little reassurance that he wasn't the only angel to be spurned for love. It just didn't happen that often with their kind, and now that he'd been denied, he was reeling.
(Although he would never ever admit it, and if Aziraphale told anyone how vulnerable Michael was acting, he would find himself recalled to Heaven and stuck doing grunt work for eternity.)
