I learned my lesson... SEVERLY

Posted by ExtremeLocket2 - May 19th, 2022


By the time of making this thread, it has now been two weeks since the contretemps I had, and as expected, the person I tried to apologize to—who I will now refer to her by the proper pronouns—decided to not accept it. However, I learned my lesson: What I tried to do with my close friends may start as a genuine desire to brighten their day, but even the nicest things have their side-effects that will morph them into something that’ll make those people uncomfortable. I should've stopped myself and told the person something along the lines of "Nevermind. Though, I feel like something is wrong here," and maybe address my behavior and fear of certain events to them. Clinginess to that extent is indeed an unwritten sin; but how is me being ditched over it any better? How would anybody seek evidence that people who are in my position changed? It’s 2022, and I had enough of hearing to the same generic “maybe she was scared” excuse. It was used 2 years ago with a previous ex-best friend who refused to tell me that she wasn’t comfortable with me labeling her as a sibling, and what happened 2 weeks ago was more than just that.


The fact that I remembered the person from way back then angered me enough to come to a realization which will likely come off as discriminative for the sake of me wanting to avoid history-repeating conflicts: Maybe I should never again befriend any girl who's born in 2003-2005 and have a Dragon-Type pokésona. It's bad enough that countless people who took advantage of me over the past 5 years (most notably on Discord) just so happen to be born within that year range, while the first and third things sound more like minor coincidences. Coincidence or not, it didn't stop me from sensing a cycle of events that's only beginning to repeat every two years. Next time I meet someone with at least 2 of those details on them, I'll still be willing to be their friend if their trust for me grows on them first rather than the other way around, but they won't EVER be expecting me to treat them or label them as a sibling, even if they go for the initiative like I would.


Regardless of what I learned or what the reasons behind the mishaps are, if people are too scared to do something as simple as consult me about my behavior or decisions even when I'm not giving a punishment to someone, I would be three times as furious if they chose to run away, hide, and do whatever the hell they want thinking they would avoid "being attacked" by me because they don't want to be wrong about the slightest of things for the sake of keeping their clout. This is why friends "get replaced," and even when I moved on from some of these mishaps, the people who--and I quote--"CLEARLY WON THE ARGUMENT" continues to spy on me for the sake of defending themselves. How am I still in the wrong when this is happening? No answer? Am I just going to be blamed for what THEY'RE doing?


Okay. I'll remember that. So, in the end... I'm done. I acknowledged my 2 mistakes and moved on from my depression. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

I Think Its A Bit Over Kill To Let One Annoying Girl Strain Your Relationship With Women I Know She Might Of Meant A Lot To You Though Shes Not Worth Ruining Your Life Over She Clearly Thinks Very Little Of You So Why Consider Her A Friend Your Probablely Better Off

First of all: Why capitalize every word?

Second: I think you got the wrong idea. The fact that it was a girl is not the problem by itself, and I think you're thinking about the girl from 2 years ago when you said that she probably thought little of me. Like I said to another guy, I much rather go further on the details in private messages.
