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.

Nah but for real if some random stranger at a bar overheard me saying I'm single and then came up to me and my friends like that I would be a little creeped out too.

I wouldn't be mean about it, but I definitely wouldn't say yes.

I can't imagine why no one would want her with that shining personality

Fake: Anon left the house

Gay: Anon was a girl this whole time

[–] ivanovsky@lemmy.world 1 points 50 minutes ago

The picture made me assume anon was a girl, so I was thinking that if you, a girl, hear another girl say she wants a man, and you offer your womanly services, it shouldn't come as a big shock to be rejected and laughed out of the room... Then I read the comments and thought "oh. Yeah. That makes more sense."

Assumptions ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

Reminds me of the guy who dmed me that he wanted to touch my boobs in broken english. I made fun of him so hard that he started calling me "mean" and stopped texting me

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 0 points 43 minutes ago

In what ways did you make fun of him?

The comments on here make me glad I'm aromantic.

Hey, thanks… I didn’t know that was a thing that’s separate from asexual. I thought I was just Ace, but Aro-Ace is more accurate.

Not sure it matters a whole lot. Haven’t given it much thought.

I misread that as aromatic and was quite confused.

They reproduce by spreading spores like Rob Lowe's character on The Orville

[–] Leomas@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago

Look, I might be a bit aromatic sometimes, but no, that's not what I meant.

As a lesbian leaning pansexual, I keep asking the question "are straights okay"

[–] frog_brawler@lemmy.world 2 points 58 minutes ago* (last edited 57 minutes ago)

Nope.

I was straight for a long time (until I was 35). I think my brain chemistry changed through relationship and dating trauma. Seven years later and I continue to no longer feel attraction to anyone at all, ever.

[–] Leomas@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

No, they are not. (As a straight person by most definitions probably)

[–] damnedfurry@lemmy.world -1 points 59 minutes ago* (last edited 58 minutes ago)

If I linked to the data showing that f/f couples have higher domestic violence than either m/f or m/m couples and then said 'I keep asking "are lesbians okay"', would you not think that a callous and insensitive thing to say, implying that it's majority or typical behavior for lesbians?

[–] TonyOstrich@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I enjoy working and making things. I find being intellectually stimulated almost as satisfying as being happy or anything else. You have absolutely no idea how much of a super power being an aromatic asexual would be for me. I'd be unstoppable, lol.

[–] Leomas@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

I think I know what you're getting at, I wouldn't necessarily call myself asexual though, as I do watch... naughty things (I'm too lazy to look up rules, I'm not shy in that respect) I just waste a lot of time getting informed on politics instead, so no guarantees for more free time😉

Thats why she cant find a man! Lesson here dont approach women that say “they cant find a man” there is a reason they cant find a man and you should believe her. What you did was courageous and this shouldn’t stop you from trying in the future.

Thats why she cant find a man!

I read about a guy on a website who just trolled bars for hours at a time, eavesdropping on every conversation between anyone he considered remotely attractive. At the slightest hint of desperation, he would run up to a table and announce "I am a single man! Please date me! I will feed you dinner and then we can be together!"

He is the most successful anon in history. Goes on dates every single day of his life. Little black book contains hundreds of phone numbers from women desperate for a second chance at him. But he doesn't stop. One Date Only, that's his policy. He's just too much of a hot commodity to deprive the rest of the Femoid Race of his charms.

This is the real reason OP's story is about a woman who is single.

[–] Darkness343@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Is he called Ataru Moroboshi by any chance? Xd

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

Lesson here: definitely take away life lessons from a greentext

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 54 points 10 hours ago

Fake: anon approached a girl

Gay: anon was daydreaming for 3 hours about getting engaged
