This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

For anyone legitimately confused, there's potentially two different things going on here:
There is a very small chance that she is now more attracted to him, since he's been "screened" by someone else as an acceptable boyfriend.
What's infinitely more likely is that now she's more comfortable interacting with him because she feels he's not as likely to take friendly interaction as anything more, now that he has a girlfriend.
Lmfao. “Very small chance” my fucking ass. This is incredibly common.
Whole-heartedly agree. Sometimes this site makes me feel like I'm dealing with a bunch of fat, young virgins. Yes, you've been screened.
My wife is mad jealous, of every woman. (Her only fault, I can deal.) Wants me to wear my ring more often.
"You know that'll only get me more attraction?"
Yeah, the overall stance of Lemmings is that women are perfect creatures that men shouldn't even breathe in the direction of because we're all just disgusting pigs and everything we do is wrong and women absolutely NEVER EVER EVER give men signals. Ever. They are not attracted to men, at all. All women want to live in a society without men and be lesbians.
Or at least that's the impression I've gotten from thread after thread on Lemmy.
Only a very minor recontrextualization, it’s largely men who date nearly exclusively through apps. From what little I’ve seen, every app appears antagonistic toward (straight) men looking to date seriously, so they believe that is the way things are irl.
