This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What I read was OP build all this stress in their head for months.

Then when it reached its breaking point, OP finally did it and then it exploded in their face.

Gonna recommend not doing that.

Also sometimes you don’t get rejected and instead get dragged into a 6 year long abusive relationship with someone with both borderline and narcissistic personality disorder and you end up with ptsd.

rejections feel nice after that

You miss 100% of the chances you don't take.

Good on anon.

Yes, but also chances sometimes are coupled to contra-chances that trigger instead and are scary enough to warrant avoiding the whole thing.

We need to teach young men that it's okay to be rejected when asking a girl out and not to be so hard on themselves.

And also teach young women that rejection doesn't mean looking at them with a disgusted look and saying "Ew!!"

You say that, but now I've been electronically tagged for hanging around a train station toilet naming people's penises.
