From my personal experience, 99% of the time a man shouts a at a girl it really is obscenities. I don't even remember when a man I don't know shouted anything else but I can imagine the situation, I guess. If it's anything else, obviously I'll listen and so will any rational person.

I see. I'm only vaguely familiar with the greentext format so excuse me for that. In that case I agree that the text implied something which is not true. I still think it's hard to keep your calm in a situation like this, especially when you're a girl who's on average physically weaker than a guy because of differences in metabolism, and a group of older, taller, heavier, and probably stronger guys start shouting obscenities at you, but in any case that's a situation you'll hopefully never get into, creepy staring and catcalling is almost an everyday thing for me but I wouldn't want anyone else to go through it cause it's creepy and gross.
I do indeed. I didn't know funsubstance could do that.

Garlog, I know that you think you wouldn't be scared because everyone believes they are invincible until they actually face the situation, but I'm telling you, if this happened to you, I doubt you would just walk past not giving a shit. You're usually quite reasonable so I don't understand how can you just dismiss this as "I wouldn't be scared because I'm not a coward, unlike all women."
As to what concerns the story, it's true whether you like it or not.

I call bs on that. I bet you'd be scared shitless. I do martial arts and even I get nervous when a group of drunk guys starts shouting "eyy hot cheeks c'mere let's fuck" at me. They're mostly harmless but never underestimate the strenght of a drunk group of people, crowd mentality mixed with alcohol is a dangerous thing, and I say this as someone who's friends with a girl who got raped by a group of drunk guys while walking home from a concert. Sure when they yell "you're pretty" I take it as a compliment and keep walking, but if you say you totally would not be nervous around a group of people who yell gross shit at you, you're a liar or maybe just don't realize how creepy the situation is cause you never had it happen to you.

Good point, I haven't watched this series/movie so I'm oblivious about the context.
Still, 95% of the time I see "boo hoo she friendzoned me" posts, it's the situation I've described above. And even yet, is being friends with someone "witty and bright" so bad, even if she doesn't want to have a relationship with you? My current relationship is a result of 8 years of friendship, I feel like seeking only a relationship without becoming friends first (or just getting to know each other well without having ulterior motives) may get you a relationship faster, but it will also end faster. Then again this is a kids situation so my adolescent advice is probably not very valuable anyway.

Exactly, I had a crush on a friend but he rejected me, we're still friends because I can get past that. I really don't see what the big deal is. Sure it was hard when he told me about other girls he liked, but I got over it and we're still good friends. I don't see why is it so hard for guys to stay friends with a girl. Maybe stop looking only at her body and start noticing she has a personality too? Honestly, if someone's shallow to the point they fuck up a few years long friendship despite the other person having a likeable personality just because they got rejected by them, they don't deserve a relationship. A relationship is a form of friendship in terms of emotional support and so on. If you just wanna fuck, find a hooker.

Thanks. I'm glad for it myself, clear nail polish helps a lot because it tastes like hell.

^ can confirm, I used to bite my nails and this is pretty much what it looks like.

Maybe it's his parents' money. That would explain why he wasted it on this dick move.

Yeah but the point is to have as many people on it as possible to reduce emissions and pollution, if they make it so everyone has their own bench, that means they send out twice as many buses as people need, and that kind of takes the point.
Then again I think Scandinavian countries can afford to do this since Scandinavia is probably the most eco-friendly place in the world, but still...

I understand, but this kind of nullifies the point of public transport, doesn't it?
