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.

This, when I got out of the you need to chase phase I started having much more success on the dating aspect of social life.

Shooting your shot early works best, if they're not interested no harm no foul. I've even had one become my wingman basically and introduced me to her friends. And let me tell you my dudes, girls make the best wingman.

Shooting your shot early is functionally the definition of creepy.

EDIT: As of when I'm typing this, 18 creepy neckbeards were very upset I said the truth out loud like that.

Communicating your intentions in a decent way is not creepy

Not sure what you mean by "in a decent way", but too early is how you get called a creep.

As always it matters how you convey your message. if you're too blunt you're obv gonna be called out for it. Learn to be smooth and noone will call you out besides assholes.

If you're ugly or beautiful af (by social standards) it doesn't affect the outcome as much tho, because beauty privilege.
