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:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Nothing at all, but that last line, "When is my turn to have fun?" Is a bit transactional, like there's an expectation and that's the problematic part.

like there’s an expectation

you can have expectations from relationships. you don't have to, and not every relationship has them, but it's perfectly fine to have them, as long as the other person's fine with that.

From yes. Of no.

Exactly, but also immediately assuming you'd be the "backup" on this and it of course cannot be genuine love.

Anon grows and changes in a 5 year span, and his romantic interests change.

Girls opinion on romance is different in 5 years.

"I don't want to be the backup."

Men can grow and change over 5 years. Women? Nah. She just wanted to fuck around and now she's settling.

This train of thought is some terminally online shit. Then again, complaining that green text is some terminally online shit is insane in its own account.
