Anon explained why he didn't consider he was being creepy and (girl) didn't counter it and didn't mention it again. What does that mean?
"Anon's" opinion on whether it's creepy or not counts for absolutely nothing.
Again, it wasn't a social cue and "anon" didn't miss it - girl directly expressed her opinion and instead of accepting it, "anon" argued against it, then ignored it That's not only creepy, but borderline abusive.
I believe the context for your query was that i missed a social que. However within context, she found it creepy i "stalked" her. To which i clarified it was not my intent to stalk or be creepy but was simply just being friendly, as i do with all my friends regardless of sex.
IF you had any friends, they would have done their damnedest to protect you from getting yourself in this situation.
so, either your telling bullshit, or your freiends are not your friends.
Yeah my friends really weren't my friends, they were all political dick heads. to be honest i really don't care if another person has another political party they agree with. I'm pretty apolitical and think both sides have certain points that i agree with and disagree with. But somehow politics always got brought up and divided the friend group into political party's and belligerent bickering ensued. So sophomore year, I just sat by myself and enjoyed my solace. until junior year, where i met some new friends that actually care and didn't really care about politics and have been hanging with them since :D.
the year i broke off from them was heavily politicized, and the full friend group i had at the time is now completely dissolved and everybody moved away. and the person who i would consider the "leader" of the friend group, which i had multi experiences with. alot of the time would "Prank" me. which was ultimately a fucked up immoral "joke" if i can call it that.
we had a MC survival world we all played on, i mean sunk hours into. one day he blew up many peoples houses and put bedrock around. and left signs saying trolololo now see at this point it justs a guy being a dick. but there's more to this story, so then him and his friend gaslight me for a week that a hacker logged onto the server and destroyed stuff. i explained i worried about if the hacker got our IP addressees and could hurt us. i got like 2 hours of sleep for all week. the other friend felt bad and eventually came clean about the "prank".
thanks for the whole explanation, i get it now, it maskes sense. i apologize for not believing you, but what you tell me kinda sounds similar to what I experienced, and it is similiar to other expiriences.
i am glad you figured out how to spot bad friendships, and how to deal with that girl.
dont fret, it will get better and better. it is very neeficial that you learned early on to say no.
thanks for the clarification! i really value that mindset.
i hope you are doing good, keep taking care of yourself, and dont let others take advantage of you. bye!
seriously, thise peope are not your friends, f them.
i recently gave up my whole friendgroup, becaue i realzed they were not my freinds. now i am just at home, learning to play the guitar.
have fun!
Thanks! I wish the best for you aswell
