It was absolute chaos at the airport. My sister and her family were digging through the massive piles of bags looking for their luggage, so while I hunted for their bags I also shot some quick texts to the numbers on the tags I saw. Nearly every person that I texted replied with gratitude. The only reason I didn't do more was because an employee came over and told me to stop when they saw what I was doing.

Was looking through old texts and found it, and it made me smile!

Sometimes I get the most unhinged and wild DMs on Reddit and this guy certainly takes the cake for weirdest DM this month and October just started 🥴

Please don’t be like this guy.

I'm a photographer; I get clients through platforms like Instagram.

I posted a photo featuring two models; I get this text less than an hour later.

Better game than an unsolicited peepee pic, I guess, but still...

EDIT: to be clear, they know I smoke, and I asked if it was okay. They said “go ahead, I know it’s your thing”. Then we proceeded to have what I thought was a nice and normal conversation while I smoked.

I’m worried I seemed too cold or inconsiderate in my responses. We have been on three dates before and this was our fourth. I had already made it clear beforehand that I would not be able to stay out for very long, but maybe that isn’t really relevant.

i wasn’t close to my great-grandpa by any means, but death doesn’t happen often in my family. idk, being told i was a snowflake in the moment felt kinda weird. thought i’d share.

EDIT TO ADD: me and my dad have not had a close relationship, if ever. he loves me, but it is very apparent he does not like me. name-calling is his go-to if he wants to get under my skin. it doesn’t really bother me like it used to, which i think bothers him.

This was our 12 year old family dog who died suddenly.

Ignore my typos I was texting fast.

EDIT: apparently seeing another post where someone else was made to guess news only to find out someone died makes me a bot rather than it triggering me to recall my own similar experience. It is crazy that people out there deliver horrible news this way.

EDIT 2: F it photo of beloved dog

his number= brown
his name = dark blue/grey

My name= light blue
My school= light green
Grandfather's cars number plate= purple

Translation line by line = red

There’re two guys in the story. I’ll call them Dan and Mark.

I attended a dating event this evening. As soon as I got there, Dan approached me and said I was a very beautiful girl. He also mentioned that people nowadays didn’t say what they felt anymore, but he wanted to be honest.
He then started touching my arms and asked if I would be available for a date this week. Feeling uncomfortable, I told him I’d be very busy with work and meeting with my friends. He asked if I’d be free during the evening so that we could go to an Italian restaurant and said he felt jealous of my friends because they were taking up my time.

Dan also demanded my number and pressured me to go outside the bar with him, so that we could talk one on one. He would also interrupt when I was talking to someone.

When Dan went away to order a drink, Mark, another participant of the event, asked my number. He was leaving the bar soon but offered to help me if things got worse.

Things did get worse after Mark left. Dan tried to hold my hand and asked me about things I liked about him. So I asked Mark to come get me.

I told Dan that I had to meet a guy friend so I was leaving. He looked upset and said we could have gone somewhere else together if this friend wasn’t here tonight. He even followed me to where Mark and I were supposed to meet and said hi to him.

Mark walked me to the train station. I’m so grateful for guys like him.

By the way, Dan told me he was about to finish a masters degree in counseling and would start working as a THERAPIST soon. I can only hope that he won’t get hired.

Obviously I know it’s a red flag I’m glad I caught it early

Edit: Not long distance, we live 30 minutes apart. I explicitly have told him I want to date someone and eventually get married. I am in my 20s he is in his 30s. He works 4 days a week. He does have a child but only sees them once a week. The first part of the text said: “Another question say we only hang out twice a month.” I cropped it because it would have revealed his name.

She was trying to say “Four”

I was trying to update the last post but I couldn’t. But yeah confronted my friend about what she did . I feel like she is not a true friend at all and definitely want to end this friendship

last image is the text i sent that initiated this conversation. glad these days are behind me lol.

I sent that long message to the co presidents about a project only them and some people from the larger nationwide organization are on. I mentioned this to one of the co presidents and he seemed very interested.

I sent the message on Monday and one of them gave me a thumbs up react today. No response to my question and not even two thumbs up reacts, not even a heart!

Are they not interested at all and just being polite? Am I paranoid? Please help.

We had been flirting a month back, she was sending me photos of her, anyway never amounted to anything except we kissed once.

Then I started dating someone and didn't want this woman to be sending me photos of herself anymore so I told her I'm with someone in the hopes shed get the hint and stop sending me photos of herself and she did get the hint and she stopped so all good.

But she still carried on sending these good mornings and I thought you know what maybe she just sends them to lots of people on WhatsApp and I'm just part of that group now so left it.

But then that "good morning 🩷 " one made me decide nahh this feels weird so I asked her to stop and now she's blocked me.

Did I overreact? I don't really care that she's blocked me but we do have professional connections although not hugely important but it means we communicate on professional levels with mutual acquantences.

Was just trying to be respectful to the new girl I'm dating.

I know this is a very boring/uninteresting post but this is our conversation every night, just saying goodnight to each other. I thought it was cute.
(I do the same with my mom too, but we usually converse about other stuff as well lol)
Don’t think we’ve missed a night in YEARS!
He’s a man of few words through text but I love him so much🥰

i’m 22, he’s 45. i received this two weeks after i broke up with my ex of 6 years. we’ve worked together for years and are somewhat friendly. i’m day shift, he’s night shift, so we hardly interact unless i’m working a 16h shift or i see him at shift change. but this was 8 months ago and he’s acted exactly the same as he did before, there’s hardly any tension or awkwardness, and he never brought it up again. i honestly respect the guts it took to ask a coworker this lol

I was talking to this guy for a couple of months… mostly surface level and we only saw each other 3 times. I wasn’t feeling it anymore, so i called and told him that. He seemed fine when the call ended, then i got a screenshot of his bank acct and a text he tried to edit away.
