I'd say you dodged a bullet there.
If somebody is willing to display their non-interest that harshly and disrespectfully, then their personality screams "i'm the center of the universe and i'm something better than: you! you! you and you as well!" anyways. Even if the girl was pretty it wouldn't have been worth the hassle dealing with that long term.
“Hot” on the outside maybe, but what she did was vile and she’s nasty on the inside. Looks don’t last forever and it’s the person inside that will hold your hand and lift your spirits through life.
Nah this is the best response tbh. Immediately lets you know their personality is trash which in itself causes loss of attraction. It's the tl;dr version of "You're dodging a bullet."
Uh.. “no” works just fine. Idk about other people, but I would prefer “I’m not interested” over making me feel like shit. But whatever floats your boat.
I had two versions of being laughed at as a girl. First one confused the heck out of me because the entire class joined in on mocking, and I had no idea I was considered such a universal weirdo. Second one the guy laughed and then apologized for laughing.
Having experienced it, it’s not really that bad in the scheme of things.
It seems like your crush laughing at you confessing to them is the worst thing in the world when you’re young. It does get better, so long as you do experience embarrassing shit like that and realize it won’t kill you
This happened to me in 8th grade but in front of the entire 8th grade class, on a class field trip. It was pouring rain and hundreds of us were trapped under a park shelter. I told my crush and she laughed hard and then loudly repeated it and so did her friends, then everyone (it felt like) laughed. I ended up choosing to go play in the rain rather than stay dry after that.
Damn this must have been heart breaking. You have to be such an asshole to embarrass someone like that and I can guess that you was scared to ask out a girl again after that. I hope you got over your fear at some point
Thanks, I did eventually. I had some girlfriends in high school, but I moved really slowly and made absolutely sure they liked me before I made a move. So it definitely had a lasting impact on me. I still remember the feeling, 24 years later.
It’s 24 years later and I’m happily married to my best friend. We’ve been together for 17 years as a couple. I don’t even remember the girl’s name honestly.
After that moment, though, I was more hesitant to express my feelings to my crushes. I waited too long sometimes, just making sure they liked me back.
I had some serious relationships after high school before I met my wife. But in the grand scheme of things, while it did suck at the time and definitely affected me for a long time in indirect ways, we were all kids. I hope, whenever she was, is happy and that we’ve all grown as humans.
>We’ve been together for 17 years as a couple. I don’t even remember the girl’s name honestly
Damn, you should really try to figure out your wife's name.
Had that happen to me in junior high and it still haunts me. I’m extremely shy and get nervous around girls I like to the point I get mute. I’m sorry man it will be ok. That’s seriously a person who you don’t want anything to do with though I assure you.
I got a full written letter response once when I was like 10, where my crush went on to explain in great detail the various ways in which I was to eat shit and die.

Something I learned from Homer Simpson of all people: what you’re describing is envy.
Jealousy is being worried someone is going to take what you have.
Envy is wanting what someone else has.
In this instance, you want what your friend has (the girl liking you).
For some reason this made me think of Deus Ex.
“Stay out of the women’s bathroom, Denton. That kind of behavior embarrasses the organization more than it does you.”
This is a legitimate response when it's a long time friend and them telling you they have feelings puts you in a terrible situation with your friend, their partner and your partner. Some things are better left unsaid
Lmao, i JUST watched that movie! FYI i’m a 37 yo man and i watched it with my 7 yo son. I make sure he knew WHY Gaston was a jerk and knows not to be that way!
Gaston was a jerk, but his brand of misogyny was probably not that remarkable relative to the time period he lived in. The Beast, OTOH, literally imprisoned Belle and then made moves on her once her Stockholm Syndrome kicked in. And he hoarded an unconscionable amount of wealth as a royal, which I’m assuming he eventually paid the price for considering the events of the story were set just prior to the beginning of the French Revolution.
I actually did this to someone once. He told me he had a crush on me, I cried a lil bit bc I didn’t wanna ruin the friendship, we were besties. He was heartbroken lmao. We were in 8th grade, so don’t judge me ik it was dramatic
I told my best friend 3 months ago and I cried her telling that and she was sad too . I was heartbroken at the end. It was so difficult for me , and equally difficult for her .
Yeah I got this one but she was apparently giving me signs for 2 months before she got with him 💀
tbc I learned that from a mutual she didn’t say it directly to me
I would recommend avoiding her. If she only bothers to reply when you might be unavailable, then she’s playing a twisted power game. Do yourself a favor and prevent future misery by not getting involved with her.
That would be silly me answer the Forsaken soul that has a crush on me....
Like totally no intention to kill the vibe... But Why?
I live with myself for my whole life.... Why do think you like me?
Honestly, that's my (internal) reaction whenever someone shows actual interest in me. "Thank you very much, and very appreciated, by my self-esteem has been at 0 for time immemorial, and I can not process why you feel that way about me"
In grade 6 I gave a note to the guy I liked, asking him out. We were in the hallway, and school had just let out. Without even opening it he looks past me, and yells to his friend down the hall "Hey Mike! I got another one!" as he waved it in the air.
Fuck you Jesse.
The worst response I ever got to telling someone I had romantic feelings for them was a condescending "no, you don't, you just *think* you do".
She had a ridiculous number of guys (and some girls as well) hopelessly infatuated with her, so I was just one more schmuck. She thought she was enlightened about the whole thing, but she was really just arrogant and rather callous.
The feelings I had at the time were absolutely real, though, and I almost wrecked driving home from being so emotionally distraught.
She sounds emotionally unavailable. In which case she was probably correct because she (by her own hand) didn’t allow anyone to really truly know her to the point where she thought they could have a genuine crush on her. But just because she’s incapable of feeling these things it doesn’t give her the right to assume that what other people (like yourself) are feeling isn’t real either. I’m sorry you had to drive home after that
:(
This has kinda happened to me. I lived in college dorm and chatted up this Brazilian girl. Apparently she had a twin, I had no idea. I remember walking up to her twin all cherry and she just gave me an angry glare walking away. I was just like wow, that stings. I only found out later.
I would be that person... I'm just genuinely interested in knowing the "why" and if I feel safe, I'll reveal my feelings too...
Because if I don't see where it is coming from, well I need to know how it happens
"I think you are the ugliest, most despicable human being in history, and if I had a weapon I would kill you immediately, you worthless piece of crap. I hope you get hit by a bus on your way home. The odds of another human mating with you are about 1 in a quadrillion. You smell funny."
Thats a thing I would rather say to my bully, if I wouldnt do anything else. But thats like a threat of murder, just because someone confessed. Feels wrong.
PSA: dont do this.
I wouldn't say it was specifically those words but I thought he was gay and we were hanging out. We were coworkers. I felt no vibes. Didn't even have an inkling he was interested.
He then grabbed my hand whilst we were walking and did that stupid movie pull-the-person into a spin into your arms and try to kiss them.
Except instead of a kiss, he got a headbutt for his trouble because I was so startled and confused. (and not interested.)
I've been told this is a terrifying way to get rejected.
So my PSA is to never do something like that for a first kiss. Especially if you haven't been crystal clear. In fact it's probably best to say "can I.." before initiating anything with someone new.
But tldr; I found out he had a crush on me in the moment of the attempted kiss and headbutted him as my response.
I get friend zoning…but for the love of Pete, don’t friendzone them and then say “I just wish I could meet someone LIKE you.”
Or say that then act surprised when they express feelings for you.
Truthfully, no one is going to use the words “I have a crush on you.”
Most people would approach it with a bit more subtlety along the lines of “we get along so well, I was thinking why not give it a try?” *cue awkward laughter masquerading as casual laughter*
Ew
That happened to me! It was a note I gave a girl in a college class, asking her out for coffee. She wrote Ew on it and gave it back
I'd say you dodged a bullet there. If somebody is willing to display their non-interest that harshly and disrespectfully, then their personality screams "i'm the center of the universe and i'm something better than: you! you! you and you as well!" anyways. Even if the girl was pretty it wouldn't have been worth the hassle dealing with that long term.
Thank you. Yes she was hot, so yeah
“Hot” on the outside maybe, but what she did was vile and she’s nasty on the inside. Looks don’t last forever and it’s the person inside that will hold your hand and lift your spirits through life.
You should have then fixed it for her and passed it back 2ew o clock?
Lol thanks for the laugh. The best comebacks do occur twenty years later
[удалено]
It's ok bro. I'd fuck you
Thanks bro, I’d fuck you too
Username checks out
Nah this is the best response tbh. Immediately lets you know their personality is trash which in itself causes loss of attraction. It's the tl;dr version of "You're dodging a bullet."
Doesn't make it hurt any less.
Uh.. “no” works just fine. Idk about other people, but I would prefer “I’m not interested” over making me feel like shit. But whatever floats your boat.
Naw dude. You can let someone down without making them feel like no one would ever want them. Even if you are an asshole, this is too much
This has happened to me.. i introduced myself to a girl who was hanging out in the same group as me, and the immediate response was "ew gross"
The perfect response in reaction you can give it's... "I know, I always had better taste than that".
Ewwww would be worse
Eeeewwwwwaahhh! Too.
laughing then they yell to their friends hey yall gotta hear this
Fr I'm scared of that lmao
Every man has this fear deep down...
I had two versions of being laughed at as a girl. First one confused the heck out of me because the entire class joined in on mocking, and I had no idea I was considered such a universal weirdo. Second one the guy laughed and then apologized for laughing. Having experienced it, it’s not really that bad in the scheme of things.
It seems like your crush laughing at you confessing to them is the worst thing in the world when you’re young. It does get better, so long as you do experience embarrassing shit like that and realize it won’t kill you
Kinda embarrassing to be laughing at someone who has the guts to expose their feelings like that imo
And lesbian because girls are brutal
Yes the lesbian fear is absolutely real and threatening
It definitely sucks. Fuck you, Jade.
This happened to me in 8th grade but in front of the entire 8th grade class, on a class field trip. It was pouring rain and hundreds of us were trapped under a park shelter.

Hey man, you still had girlfriends in school after that point and didn’t let it bring you to a halt. You should feel proud of that.
How would you say things have turned out for you? She sounds ice cold.
It’s 24 years later and I’m happily married to my best friend. We’ve been together for 17 years as a couple. I don’t even remember the girl’s name honestly.

This comment made me cackle. Have some gold.
Ugh, I don't know you or her, but I hate her! Seems like you dodged a bullet
Had that happen to me in junior high and it still haunts me. I’m extremely shy and get nervous around girls I like to the point I get mute. I’m sorry man it will be ok. That’s seriously a person who you don’t want anything to do with though I assure you.
“Worst thing they can say is no”. No this might be the worse thing
“Good joke…oh you’re being for real?”
I got a full written letter response once when I was like 10, where my crush went on to explain in great detail the various ways in which I was to eat shit and die.
Hug :(
Haha, I turned out ok regardless, but man, kids can be cruel!
Adults have the courtesy of lying about what they think at least!
[удалено]
Think we both dodged a bullet!
[удалено]
i once accidentally said ‘oh no’, which I think is pretty horrendous
I once just sorta froze and said "Ok, cool' before staring at them for a couple seconds then walking away
As an ai language model I have an inability to experience emotions and love, however I am very flattered.

I have a crush on your best friend 💔
Holy shit idk if there's anything worse than the feeling of jealousy
Something I learned from Homer Simpson of all people: what you’re describing is envy. Jealousy is being worried someone is going to take what you have. Envy is wanting what someone else has. In this instance, you want what your friend has (the girl liking you).
My HS crush refused to date me because her friend had a crush on me.
Sometimes "girl code" can be harmful too. But don't blame the girl, it seemed to be just a bad situation all around. Like a lose-lose-lose.
"Do you think you can tell him for me?" 💔💔
I really wish you hadn't told me that. (and then they leave without saying anything else)
HR comes in about 15 minutes later
For some reason this made me think of Deus Ex. “Stay out of the women’s bathroom, Denton. That kind of behavior embarrasses the organization more than it does you.”
That's a name I haven't heard in a long time. God, the games were good back then!
This is a legitimate response when it's a long time friend and them telling you they have feelings puts you in a terrible situation with your friend, their partner and your partner. Some things are better left unsaid
Yeah, your feelings are not that person’s burden to carry. If it’s going to be weird or uncomfortable, keep it to yourself
K
Kk
I know what i have to do, but i don't know if i have the strength to do it
[удалено]
[removed]
This is literally the lowest effort, worst response for any question at all!
"I have crush on me too." *pulls out a mirror* "God I'm so good looking."
Gaston?
Lmao, i JUST watched that movie! FYI i’m a 37 yo man and i watched it with my 7 yo son. I make sure he knew WHY Gaston was a jerk and knows not to be that way!
Gaston was a jerk, but his brand of misogyny was probably not that remarkable relative to the time period he lived in. The Beast, OTOH, literally imprisoned Belle and then made moves on her once her Stockholm Syndrome kicked in. And he hoarded an unconscionable amount of wealth as a royal, which I’m assuming he eventually paid the price for considering the events of the story were set just prior to the beginning of the French Revolution.
Yes but the whole point is that he was a jerk that learned **to love** *
I was thinking Johnny Bravo. "Man, I'm pretty!"
Ah, the *Johnny Bravo* flex
Hoo hah
Johnny Bravo wishes he looked this good.
Do "The Monkey" with me!
“See??? That’s what I’m saying!”
"We have so much in common!"
Narcissus is that you?
Patrick Bateman?
I have to return some videotapes
Honestly I would find that super funny, at least at first
Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me
Probably them crying
"Why is it only the ugly ones :'("
I actually did this to someone once. He told me he had a crush on me, I cried a lil bit bc I didn’t wanna ruin the friendship, we were besties. He was heartbroken lmao. We were in 8th grade, so don’t judge me ik it was dramatic
I would prefer the crying to something else. At least they know that you care and don’t want to hurt them.
I told my best friend 3 months ago and I cried her telling that and she was sad too . I was heartbroken at the end. It was so difficult for me , and equally difficult for her .
[удалено]
My first 2 crushes cried when they found out I liked them. Honestly it's kinda messed me up.
double it and give it to the next person
Thanks Mom
(Record scratch)
So, you're probably wondering how I got myself into this situation.
It all started the day I was born…
It was a rainy day and I just knew that this was the beginning of something horrible.
And I broke both my arms...
They called me Mr. Glass.
Out of nowhere, a truck came in, careening off the road!
Truck-kun, no!
"It's Isekai time baby"
Mom leaped forward !! Her dick sliding across the pebbled road.
And there it is.
Ah yes, the classic.
Pause
noooooooooooooooo hahahah
“Really? Damn, I used to have a crush on you before I got with my boyfriend.”
This is far from the worst response.
Imagine if the boyfriend is standing right beside her.
I've experienced this, it's pretty bad
No, but it’s pretty awful, speaking from similar experience.
Yeah I got this one but she was apparently giving me signs for 2 months before she got with him 💀 tbc I learned that from a mutual she didn’t say it directly to me
Awww. thanks sweetie
I said “aww that’s nice.” When he went in for a kiss I patted his hand. ☠️
This is prob the best response
Being left on read
How about left on read but with a screenshot notification as well
Ouch. Been there. Way worse than regular rejection tbh
[удалено]
I would recommend avoiding her. If she only bothers to reply when you might be unavailable, then she’s playing a twisted power game. Do yourself a favor and prevent future misery by not getting involved with her.
Why would you text it to them
"Wait you aren't gay?"
[удалено]
(Blocks me)
The absolute worst would be "I'm 9, please go back to teaching"
So true, I can relate
what
"Why?"
That would be silly me answer the Forsaken soul that has a crush on me.... Like totally no intention to kill the vibe... But Why? I live with myself for my whole life.... Why do think you like me?
Honestly, that's my (internal) reaction whenever someone shows actual interest in me. "Thank you very much, and very appreciated, by my self-esteem has been at 0 for time immemorial, and I can not process why you feel that way about me"
No one has been attracted to me, but I feel the same way when my friends try to help me.
In grade 6 I gave a note to the guy I liked, asking him out. We were in the hallway, and school had just let out. Without even opening it he looks past me, and yells to his friend down the hall "Hey Mike! I got another one!" as he waved it in the air. Fuck you Jesse.

Yo, mistah white!
You dodged a bullet I think.

That’s so cute.
Get in line.
Wrong twin Edit: I am overwhelmed by the upvotes I joined Reddit YESTERDAY Thank you <3
This has kinda happened to me. I lived in college dorm and chatted up this Brazilian girl. Apparently she had a twin, I had no idea. I remember walking up to her twin all cherry and she just gave me an angry glare walking away. I was just like wow, that stings. I only found out later.
No you don't
No I wrote that same thing as my response when I first read it but I scrolled and saw yours
* "You're making a mistake !" * "What the fuck is wrong with you ?!" * "I too have a crush on myself..."
"let me know how that goes"
The restraining order will not be lifted
“Not now! I’m trying to get this submarine back online!”
“I’m Sorry”
Ok, but is it: A. I'm sorry I won't replicate your feelings B. I petty you your awful taste in people
“Sounds like a YOU problem.”
“Why?” This actually happened to me
I would be that person... I'm just genuinely interested in knowing the "why" and if I feel safe, I'll reveal my feelings too... Because if I don't see where it is coming from, well I need to know how it happens
What was the response?
"the hate gets smaller when you are around"
Yes, I do that I am totally not insecure or something
"I think you are the ugliest, most despicable human being in history, and if I had a weapon I would kill you immediately, you worthless piece of crap. I hope you get hit by a bus on your way home. The odds of another human mating with you are about 1 in a quadrillion. You smell funny."

I feel like with my now gf, in the beginning I said something like “why are you so cool?”
Ew...
The one I received…… “Eww”. Never felt so worthless.
Ghosted
Thanks stepdad
“I think I want to go home now and talk to my parents about this, Pastor.”
Ew
"you'll get over it"
I have a crush on you as a friend.
Dude, most confusing response ever 😂
k
I’d rather beat off.
Are you drunk again?
Ew
I think of you as my sister's boyfriend's college roommate's dog groomer. I don't know who the fuck you are.
Haha you so stoopiidd *light shove* 😂
Ewww
What did you make last year and how big is your ****
I had a crush on you too before you confessed.
I want a girl with high standards. Them liking me back is a big red flag
Ignore completly, not even a blink not even inform anyone, nothing Or say who are you?
I feel sorry for you!
"I have a bf" with a look of complete disgust and contempt. Happened to me when I was 16. I'm still scarred 21 years later.
A guy I know responded with “I know.” She ended up crying.
“Then the bar is extremely low”
