He kept trying to extend again and again and eventually asked if I would go "watch a movie" at his place.

    TheCaptainhat. 15 hr. ago This guy I'd meet for coffee for "mentoring" I figured out was just a liar. Not even about important stuff, just dumb random things. Was super easy to notice, and was insulting that he'd think I was that gullible. 1.8k Reply Share

    pricklynobody · 15 hr. ago Had a date with a girl who told me a couple of stories about her life, and ended them saying "Nah, I'm just kidding." At the end of the date, I felt like I knew less about her than I did going in. Made me feel really uncomfortable. 5.3k Reply Share

    _hootyowlscissors 15 hr. ago · edited 15 hr. ago In high school my longtime crush finally started to reciprocate my feelings and we got to hanging out. That's when he told me he and his buddies liked to ride their bikes, and swing baseball bats, as they chased terrified homeless people down. When he saw my horrified expression he was like "we don't actually hit them! They just think we will. At worst we'll throw brown paper bags full of dog s'at them! Hahaha.” That relationship lasted about half

    ABOV drifters 74 13 hr. ago She insulted my job, while not having one, and made fun of my hobbies, all while I was letting her stay at my place for a few months rent free. 791 Reply Share CrazyRussianCake · 7 hr. ago The audacity of some people sometimes when they judge others for having things they don't have. It boggles my mind honestly. I hope you were able to kick her out of your place quickly and easily.

    Lemp_Triscuit11 · 15 hr. ago I'm an a olic that's pretty jazzed about being sober now. You'd be surprised how many folks will pull out the "... and you don't think you could just get away with a drink or two after being sober this long?" idk, but I never plan to find out and it's concerning that you feel the need to tempt me. 5.0k Reply Share

    createthiscom · 14 hr. ago Dated a woman who had no job and lived off of rental income from a single property. She told me she wanted to start a new business but had no savings and didn't want to work. This was immediately after she told me she p ed away a 400k inheritance in a few years by traveling. I laughed and told her that was what jobs were for. I'm pretty slow most of the time but I'm pretty sure she wanted me to be the solution to that problem. 399 Reply Share

    ThrowRA_Act8849. 13 hr. ago When I meet someone and they make fun of someone's looks or just focus on someone's body/features too much. “She has a big x” so the fɩ‹ what? Why does that bother you? Who cares if someone is attractive to you or not? Like literally why does it matter or change your life at all? I know people in their 40s who still do this...... 210 Reply Share

Didn't offer to help me up, offer any consolation, just laughed in my face for 5 minutes. Kept bringing it up the rest of the hike how stupid I looked falling and laughing again. 774 Reply Share

    Daniel0909 13 hr. ago I dated a girl for a short while who quickly started alluding to me being the love of her life. She then all of a sudden said she needed to "find herself" and said we should break up. I told her I had fun, thanked her for her time and went on my way. Not even two days later she called me crying asking "That's it!? You're not even going to try to chase me!? Did I mean so little to you!? I can't believe what a heartless jk you are!". Nope...
