Crush

So I have a younger brother (13) who is a child prodigy. I won’t give too many details but he’s well known in the academic circles of our country and attends an institute of higher education. Naturally people are impressed with his intelligence and he’s quite popular and makes friends easily. Our parents dote on him and have never told him “no”. As a result he has become very arrogant, condescending and disrespectful to people he deems below him...that’s just about everyone.

Lately he’s been openly talking about a girl he’s crushing on and much to his dismay she’s quite unimpressed with him. He often complains to my parents and I about his failed attempts to befriend her.

I understand why she dislikes him. On one occasion he invited her over for a school project and I overheard their interaction. He was constantly talking over her, dismissing her ideas and even calling them stupid. 99% of the time he was talking about himself and his accomplishments, being in news articles, his future plans are etc. The poor girl obviously seemed uncomfortable. He quizzed her about her career aspirations and when she answered he proceeded to point out it’s a bad career path.

Today he was once again complaining about her and said that she’s obviously intimidated by his superior intellect. He claimed that all girls only like “stupid guys” and that “women are emotional”. Sadly my parents agreed and kept assuring him that this girl is obviously uncomfortable with the fact he’s so accomplished and awesome.

After hearing this nonsense many times, I finally told him that his crush dislikes him because he behaves like an obnoxious, know-it-all asshole. I explained that he’d probably have a chance if he showed some modesty instead of talking down on this girl so much.

So my parents obviously think I’m an asshole for saying this. They said that it was horrible of me to say this to a 13 year old and that he’s just a child. I told them that he needs to realise that his personality is becoming a problem and that his crush dislikes him because he’s an AH, not because he’s “too smart”. AITA?

And the thing is; he asked me out!!!!! I'm so happy Edit: I am not the girl that the other viral post is about; I am a non-binary person.

I finally confessed to my crush I like him

Well today was the day. Today was the day that I confessed to my crush that I like him.

I’ve known this guy for a few months now. He started at our job and I didn’t think much of him at first and didn’t really talk to him.

Of course working within our group and seeing each other everyday, I began to share things about myself and vice versa. We work great together, we have so many things in common and have many of the same interests.

Our values aligned with each other, Political affiliations, upbringings, goals and dreams, and family values.

We were on one accord about almost everything and I was intrigued.

I wanted to know more about him so I would come up with unique projects so that we would come into work and work together.

Eventually, someone quit on our team and it was just me and him working. I’ve enjoyed the past few months working with him and secretly have had the biggest crush on him.

I’m out, but I’m not very vocal about being gay. Im not ashamed, I just want to live my life and not have me being gay simply defining me.

I eventually added him on Facebook one night and he accepted promptly.

I eagerly reviewed his profile to get an idea of him and I couldn’t find anything conclusive.

He didn’t have his interest shown. He was never in any pictures with girls except his sister and what I saw on his profile only made me smitten with him more.

He was geeky, cute, good hearted, funny, loved his family and most importantly driven.

I would get to know him more day by day because I was interested.

I’m not sure if he sensed it but I really wanted to get to know him more on that level.

Days would go by and everyday I would chicken out and not tell him.

I wrote this post on Facebook about me living my life authentically, and not being afraid of rejection or judgement and he was one of the first who liked my post.

I spent two days working on this text that I wanted to send him because I wasn’t sure if I could have told him face to face.

Today when I woke up, I told myself today was the day.

I’d been rehearsing what I’d say and finally I just told myself.... man up and do it.

Today while working, the clock moved faster than usual. It was as if time was not on my side.

Time came to go home and I just began to ramble with him about nonsense. I was not ready.... or so I thought...

Eventually I just told him that I needed to talk with him and that I’d hoped he have a few minutes.

My das is a dick to begin with so fuck him if he goes down for this.

But he had a buddy over last night and I was in the next room and my dad said that he has another student who has a crush on him. His friend asked him what he was going to do. My dad said he had to report it to the Human Resources. His friend said that was smart: my dad then said “yeah but only because she’s one of the ugly ones, if she was hot Id not be so fast to report it!” And they both laughed like tucking chad idiots.

Should I report him to the school and fuck him up because he’s disgusting ?

Okay so I feel really bad about what’s happened but I’m so confused on what to do next so I need help.

I (f23) used to date this guy, we can call him Tim (23m). I dated him a couple years ago, but I broke up with him when I felt that I wasn’t really mature enough to be in a serious relationship at that time. Fast forward to last year, my friend ‘Tina’ (22f) had a massive crush on Tim. She asked him out (without consulting me first) and he declined. I wasn’t too angry, as we were broken up.

To this day, Tina still has a crush on Tim, but me and him recently got back in touch, and I remembered everything I liked about him before. He’s the sweetest man, and I regret breaking up with him. He asked me if we could try again, and I said yes.

I talked to Tina this morning, and she found out we were dating again. She was not happy. She told me I was breaking girl code, and that she will never talk to me again unless I break up with him, which I really don’t want to do.

Despite how she sounds in this story, Tina is an amazing friend and I love her to bits, I really don’t want to lose my friendship with her but I feel stuck, because Tim is also amazing. I feel like either way, I’m going to lose one of them.

Do I listen to what she said to keep my friendship with her??

Well, the whole sentence was "you're pretty annoying", but I focus only on the positive things.

I'm in a discord server with my mates, most days after online school we sit down and play games together. The games we play the most are Animal Crossing New Horizons, Pokémon Sword/Shield and Mario kart 8 Deluxe, well one of the boys (lets call him Dan) admitted to having a crush on a girl in our school, who he had known for a long time (lets call her Daisy). after he left the call we decided that we wouldn't be proper homies if we didn't get them to go out, so we began brainstorming what to do. we came up with the idea of adding her to the server, not the best idea but Dan was confident and would probably ask her out then. we added her to the server and immediately Dan messaged me basically saying what the f*ck, then we realised we had made it worse. She played Mario kart with us and she was alright (I f*cking destroyed her with a red shell near the end of N64 Rainbow Road) and then we played Pokémon, she battled me and that's when I got an idea (an actual thought out one this time).

When we battle online we have the setting so that we can see the nicknames we gave our Pokémon, So when I battle with one of the boys they can see I named my Grimmsnarl Gizmo and I can see that they named their Bisharp Kingsley. So when Daisy left I told everyone in the call my plan, Dan would battle Daisy but his Pokémon would have the nicknames:

• Will
• You
• Go
• Out
• With
• Me?

Dan was initially was sceptical but after some gentle encouragement from one of our friends (she threatened to kill his dog) he said yes and we got to work, we knew in order for her to see all the nicknames Dan would need to have weak Pokémon so we gave him 6 Caterpies as her ace was a Coalossal. it took us about 3 hours and 2 pots of coffee but in the end we got it all ready. The next day she joined the call and Dan pretty much immediately asked her to battle saying he had a new team and had spent a long time making it (I mean he was not wrong).

She practically died when she saw his team. the battle started and she was destroying his team, she hadn't realised what he was doing until he sent out the Out Caterpie and pieced two and two together and realised what was going on. After absolutely thrashing him she left call, pretty much everyone was chanting and happy for Dan, even if she said no he had asked her out. later that night around 8:30PM we were still on call doing dynamax adventures when Daisy joined back to the call and challenged Dan to another Battle with a team of Goldeens with t

If they do not change it like this and choose to just nerf the blowpipe, the gap between the twisted bow and the 2nd best in slot range weapon will just increase.

Right now it's Tbow, Blowpipe, nothing, nothing, nothing and then "any other Ranging weapon" in terms of viability.

If they just nerf Blowpipe it will be like this:

Tbow, nothing, nothing, Blowpipe, nothing, "any other Ranging weapon" in terms of viability.

Not only did she say yes, but a mutual friend told me that she called her and started fangirling and screaming about it. This is epic.

And she said yes I’m so excited I have no one to tell about this at least I can share this victory with you guys I’ll update you guys after our first date I’m so excited

I fuckin happy as a clam right now.

Edit: we are officially dating and it’s freaking awesome!

Got into a huge argument yesterday about some things & what we need to fix etc. I told him I really like to read fanfiction & anime characters are basically my escape from reality. I know the difference between reality and fiction so why is it an issue? i received several texts while i was sleeping since he works the night shift saying he asked people at his job about if its okay etc & telling me they’re saying its not.

also sent me someone’s reddit post about their husband being obsessed with a character the difference with me is that im not obsessed at all. he then proceeded to google about it saying people who have crush on cartoon character are mentally ill. he also said stuff like “those characters aren’t gonna be the ones that love you” like i literally know that... i already told him i know reality seperates from fiction.

then sent me these texts saying:

1. “your family and lover isn't supposed to come 2nd to no one NO ONE!!!”
2. “why should your happiness have to crush me when there is so many other things that can make you happy”
3. “i have many hobbies that make me happy and not a single one gets in the way of our relationship so you need to realize what you are doing is wrong”
4. “just think of it like this if your kids was on the line would you stop or just let em go? you would stop right cause you actually love your kids unconditionally unlike me where i always have to provide something to make you happy and love me”
5. “i talked to this old lady named Caren about it and she said "dont let a girl tell you she loves you if she cant adapt to the way you want to be loved cause if you go to a doctor and ask for medicine and they give you the wrong one are they helping you or making it worse?"

he then texted me saying not to reply until he wakes up which is annoying. am i being crazy or something like its just a fictional character, a literal pixel. Please someone tell me you understand me i really need help. Im already emotionally disconnected from this relationship i tried opening up to him about something that makes me happy & this is what i get

EDIT- to people thinking i always talk about the crush. Not the case at all i told him about the crush & tried to get him to understand it’s something that makes me happy when im feeling down to think of my favorite characters. He then proceeded to tell me I cant love him if i love something that isn’t real because he thinks that if they were real then I would leave him which
