I. Don’t. Flirt. Can I have a map of the male mind plz? Sorry, can’t help you there. I barely even know what flirting is anyway. I’m also pretty abnormal, so there’s that. You can’t speak your mind and joke around girls? If you can’t, those ones don’t seem like great friends.

I want ALL the friends! It’s honestly more fun to have a mixed group than just girls. Believe me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you can always give corrections to those who misinterpret. Boys pretty much boil down to general ignorance at the end of the day. Don't worry, they're just as nervous as you are and prone to overthinking things as well. Usually they're clueless and miss obvious signs but they're trying their hardest. Just try to find the good ones out there (you might have to try for a while ) and you'll be fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, it does hurt a little bit to be referred to as clueless and ignorant. My social skills are quite lacking in every aspect, so I can't say much besides that.

I think the guys on this site are not the vast majority, fwiw- we're pretty special.

I figure we don't seem to follow the general trends I mean, I would hope I don't fall under the usual categories. Besides my natural tendencies, I've done a lot to not be like most people. Yeah though, plenty of us are not great people, but I think that just goes for humans in general. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It honestly sucks that others would use their agency to hurt others, but that is the world we live in. A world where people seem to care less and less. Which is why this is such an amazing site, as the people here care for each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish people would see that other people are people too, and would respect that, instead of wanting to cause pain or not caring at all about their fellow humans.

NameIess Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 Does the vast majority really exist? I’m sure that people who match stereotypes do exist, but it seems to me that they’re very much the extreme minority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority=the actions of most to all boys, excluding whoever you’re talking to (if assuring them they’re not in it, not if you’re doing the opposite). Believe me.

Believe me. I know all. I know the vast majority does exist, but I feel that us telling each other 'oh, you're better than all of them' is not exactly healthy. We may be better than stereotypes that exist, but are those stereotypes actually the vast majority? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That1Cellist Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 You are right. I just have friends who make fun of teenage boys a lot. I, in addition to my natural tendencies, have made a large effort to be abnormal. When someone says I'm normal, it kind of hurts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That1Cellist Posted November 10, 2022 Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 Help! The girls are making fun of us! We have to defend ourselves and our mental stability. I can't stand being made fun of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to defend ourselves and our mental stability. I can't stand being made fun of. I wouldn't say the girls are making fun of us. It is more that their commentary is breaking down our cognitive function and our collective grip on reality as they analyze the hopelessness and irony that is life. Also hello, I'm here.
