Mindhunterr/thathappened ?
Have you never had a positive interaction in your whole life? This isn’t even that far fetched of a story.
EdibleFriendIt’s not that its far fetched its just…the way its written. I mean I have literally been in this situation as a straight dude so yes, this happens lol.
But this post just sounds like tumblr crap.
A compliment is a compliment no matter who it comes from.
This just feels like ‘and here is the moral of the story dear reader’
Let’s assume it is fake. So what?
Then whats the harm in saying ‘yeah this post is fake’?
It’s needless negativity. It feels like an attempt to smother any possibility that there might be happiness elsewhere in the world. In short: it sucks keep it to yourself.
That’s what it is to you. Thats a very strange over the top reaction as well. All people are saying, at least me, can’t speak for the other guy is…while yes…things like this do happen (and have happened to me) this particular post is pretty poorly written and feels like typical tumblr reblog bait. Good things happen. That doesn’t mean we cant look at a very poorly written ‘good thing’ story and say ‘yeah that probably didn’t happen’.

I’m sorry but do you always go through life assuming the worst of people like this?
You’re right, that was over the top. It exaggeration as a poor attempt to make my point, and I did that because I felt you were deliberately avoiding answering my initial question. I apologize for my ineptness in making my point.
(The point was it doesn’t matter if this story is fake even if someone made it to farm internet clout.)
So all fake stories should just be treated as real no matter how obviously fake? But only if they are wholesome?
For example if I posted this would you be defending it with this much hostility? It’s very wholesome after all.
Please don’t put words in my mouth. And I’m sorry you mistook my snark for hostility, I didn’t intend for my comments to be hostile although I see how you came to that conclusion.
I am not sure how I am putting words in your mouth. You say don’t call out fake stories. Simple as that. So i am questioning how far we should go with that. Do you defend the picture I posted as well as something we must not question?
It feels like an attempt to smother any possibility that there might be happiness elsewhere in the world.
And I am sorry but nobody on earth could possibly interpret this as anything other then pure toxicity. You have apologized for your behavior and that’s great, but don’t backtrack and pretend it wasn’t anything but pure negativity now.
This will be my last reply, because I have no interest in a keyboard fight.
If you don’t accept my apology, that’s your right, but don’t pretend you know enough about me to say what the motivations behind what I say are.
I am not trying to fight, I have shown no anger or hostility. I am really just trying to wrap my mind around this ‘never question fake stories on the internet’ viewpoint. It’s completely new to me and I honestly can’t understand it.
Exactly
Maybe it’s because it’s unclear whether or not it should have “and gay” or no 😁
Wow as i said don’t ne a cheap shot like is that all you can muster with your limited intelligence ?
yeeeeeeeah…not helping bro lol
Yeah it is too like baitily written
magnetosphere“Baitily” is now my Word of the Day.
Yep like you said in your own words “stoey”
What part of the story bothers you so much?
The part were everyone clapped and the bartender was albert einstein. Don’t be a cheap shot i know what you are getting at and no i am a leftist atheist and believes everyone should have their freedom . I hope you could get the medical help you need to get rid of such a dark mind .
HominineI hope you could get the medical help you need to get rid of such a dark mind
Wow, the call is definitely coming from inside the house on this one.
Really am i the one who can’t take a thing without accusing people of being an homophobe ? Everyone who spents five minutes on my history can see that i am not . Now cry as all you know are the insults you memorised in high school and can’t make a solid argument.
Again with the projection. If it’s all you have then so be it.
Talking with you is a waste of my time as you either are a troll or can’t see past your own ass
Now cry as all you know are the insults you memorised in high school and can’t make a solid argument.
This you?
I wasn’t “getting” at anything, I was genuinely asking what about the story upset you so much.
Based on your answer you are upset by the story because you believe it to be fake? If I’m correct, why is that?
Nothing ever happens.
snooggumsI’m sure you don’t believe me either, but when my friend came out in his early 20s I went with him to gay bars like a half dozen times to show support. Every time I would get compliments, and it was really a pleasant exchange like this except instead of girlfriend being around I let them know I was there to help a friend feel comfortable.
Two times they bought me a drink, and I was never made to feel unwelcome since I was there to be supportive.
Plus the compliments really did make me feel good about myself.
agent_flounderEven my sorry ass has experienced this …sorta kinda… once, but no drinks, and only one person sort of maybe seemed to be interested … a little. Or maybe I was just imagining it…
Damn now I don’t feel so good about myself 😂
If they might have seemed interested they probably were. Assume the best!
Nah this is common, in the US at least. Details lending credence:
I get that things like this may happen it is just online one written like this is made solely to win the poster internet points .
I hear you, like “hey guys guess what I’m attractive” type of posts
One person insinuated it in this thread
OK I just read the adjacent threads. It appears other users were being somewhat overly aggressive and hyperbolic in their disagreement with your opinion, but it also looks like you doubled down and escalated when you didn’t have to, and ended up taking on multiple people unnecessarily.
Free advice:
Good luck
