At camp some guys and girls were playing in a tent, I was not included.

One got out and told me I could join. I tried to and they all laughed at me. Still hurts a bit.

Being called an ugly pimple head for a whole year will also do it

Plot twist: Anon was at a college party where everyone else was 20+, so they didn't want to diddle him

Anon self pities instead of self reflecting and fails to grow because of it

[–] [email protected] 135 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I don't think that we have enough information to draw that conclusion. It is a legit horrible experience though. I can't imagine what it would be like.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I can't say I've had the exact same experience, but I did get picked on by a bunch of "friends" at a birthday party. Tried to play truth or dare and I was a really honest, open kid (mostly), so when it was my turn I said, "truth" and someone asked me if I'd ever kissed a girl, and I said, "no". They decided that I had to be lying so they asked me a different question, "have I ever had a crush on a girl" to which I also said, "no". They didn't believe that either, and one of them jokingly asked, "have you (me being AMAB) ever kissed a boy?" That was coming from a kid in a really conservative Christian family, and it caught me off-guard. The truth was that no, I had never kissed a boy either, but the question made me hesitate. They lept on that.

I can. Been there. Couple times. My foster brother and I used to hang out with a bunch of other kids from ages 8-14, and whenever someone had a bright idea for a game like that, completely unprompted would come "but I'm not kissing Dharmacurious." Shut fucking hurt. I never asked to play those games, never tried to join in. Would try my best to excuse myself before someone suggested a game like that. I didn't have my first kiss until years and years and years after I lost my virginity, because I only ever did hookups with random strangers online, because I never felt like I was even capable of being desired in anyway other than a quick lay. Being ugly sucks. It truly, honestly does. I shower religiously, I brush my teeth (which, somehow, I still managed to get fucked in that department). Still, I send a picture online, blocked. I'm not an Incel or anything, I don't think I'm owed a damn thing, it's just the reality of the situation. I'm a fun, interesting person, with a good sense of humor, thick skin, intelligent, caring, loyal to a fault, and all the other things my shrink has helped me realize. But no one gets to know that, because there has to be some physical attraction for someone to want to get to that point. Can't fault em for that. But being a bridge troll is lonely, and it sucks. And up thread someone suggested they should shower. That's a fucked up thing to say, you don't know their life. And I know green text=fiction, but this one rings fucking true for some of us.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago

I'm sorry random Internet stranger. Kids are brutal and can surely crush anyone's ego without hesitation. And people telling you "to shower more" are just idiots with a nematode's mental capacity and the emotional spectrum of a black&white-tv that's out of black.

I don't know anything about your environment, but you will find that special someone. Most likely when you least expect it. With those mentioned qualities you're a steal. I, personally, would totally prefer a bridge-troll (your words) with character and true values over any empty peacock. The older i got the more obvious that became.

I hope you'll find your lady. Everyone deserves to be loved. And your chances are way better being a troll than bring rich. That's a positive hm? 😉

Agreed. I think people who blame anon for being in pain fail to see the problem with the behavior of the selfish, stupid people at the party, which is ironic.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago

I love that elsewhere, someone says anon should have taken more showers, then we have "stinky" with this insightful post.

I don't think it's anything more than coincidence, but it makes my brain feel good.

[+] [email protected] -54 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean, it sucks that you pinned your hopes on your crush having to follow a social pressure to kiss/fondle/fuck/whatever the "forfeit" for spin the bottle was in the first place.

It sucks that you had to go through that, but at what point does that declination of your advances suck less?

I mean, society has unfortunately favoured shitty games like "pull the bull" and "poke the bear" over any sort of genuine attraction which has usually disadvantaged women anyway - that's not to turn it into a gender thing, but maybe the idea of sparking a relationship from a forced interaction sucks from the outset.

[–] [email protected] 84 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Anon didn't make up the rules, and I wouldn't wager that he was the one who decided to start that game. Everyone chose to play knowing they wouldn't be comfortable getting anon. It doesn't seem to me like anon made any advance at all. Rejecting someone's advances for whatever reason is not morally incorrect, nor is denying them physical displays of affection. But going up to someone unprompted and telling them you find them unattractive and wouldn't feel comfortable touching them is. This seem like an intermediate situation where they willingly and knowingly created a situation where they would have to do the latter. Refusing to kiss or touch anon wasn't the fault here, initiating the game was.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It sounds like he joined (sat down into) an existing game, which if this story was true, which it isn't, because it's 4chan, would be pretty different?

Anon should've showered more often

[–] [email protected] 190 points 3 weeks ago (11 children)

Middle school kids he mighta done nothing wrong at all. Those kids at that age are terrors and will oust people from a friend group for the dumbest reasons imaginable.

Sucks because that person may have done everything right and years later still can't trust people or open up to them.
