      They’re not posing to get their picture taken, Shaggy just appeared there, and she was instantly paralyzed

    As a bitter short guy the first thing I saw was “yeah, he’s tall.”

    I guess at least I recognize I’m an asshat lol

    I’ve been the boyfriend in this situation with a hot goth chick. No idea what she saw in me.

        She moved on. I was young and stupid and she had better things to do than deal with an insecure loser like me. She had a really awesome black chevy nova with a license plate ‘SPOOKY1’ and one of the most awesome things we did was make a bleeding heart cake to impress her pretentious goth friends. A few years back though, she died from a heroin overdose, her Mom had reached out to me on facebook and we talked some, she was a nice lady. Ex-gf had apparently been having some issues in her life and had not-good influences that pushed her back into drugs. C’est la vie.

      Depends on what kind of imaging she was using. Did she ever rub Doritos dust on your belly?

    People underestimate their own attractiveness and overrate others’. People are attracted to different things. You may think you’re ugly for X but someone thinks you’re attractive for Y. They might not care about X. Even apart from that, there are things people want in a partner that have nothing to do with looks.

    I remember seeing a pretty goth girl holding hands with a guy in a full Adidas tracksuit and thinking how unusual yet awesome it was to see people from completely different social groups in a relationship.

      A few friends said that me. Pretty sure it was just to keep me going. Though One time my old 4th grade teacher stopped me when I went to my brother’s parent day. Asked me if I was single and wanted to meet her child. Sadly I wasn’t and my brother was there so couldn’t lie even if It occurred to me to. Felt very random. Especially how forward she was on all that.

          Weirdly, Not as uncommon In my life. I had 2 arranged marriages that I am very happy fell through. My father kept trying to arrange with his customers kids. He made huge deal when I wouldn’t indulge him any further.
