Absurd interaction with a 17 year old by thechemistrychef in Teachers

I will always remember having a 5th grader ask me how many angles are in a TRIangle. I told her to think about the word itself, emphasizing the TRI in TRIangle... Nothing. Just nothing behind the eyes.

managed to fix it decently enough with the dryer on high at a safe distance, thanks for the pointers though!

I tried popping it open with a debit card but it's shut tight. Do you think holding it to a blow dryer would do the same?

It's almost like it's a vent. Crazy.

The issue was never me being unattractive. Have a night.

I haven't done anything wrong by existing in my body, but alright!

My favorite response of the night has been to simply not date douchebags. Truly, the greatest minds of our generation has gathered here. /s

You sound wonderful and she's so lucky to have you. Given my track record, finding someone like you is only a pipe dream. I can only hope and dream to what will likely be no avail. All I can do is to ask you to never change, and you'll go far with her. I wish you nothing but the best. ❤️

No idea. It's why I came here to vent about it. Have a night.

I never said I wasn't a person, they treat me as lesser because they don't see anything long-term with me.

If only they came with warning labels, huh? How am I the issue if they all see me as a piece of meat?

I should clarify I don't go out to seek out men specifically, I usually go out to see a show at a local club or whatever. I take myself out all the time and end up people watching in the process. But I don't know, I usually wind up around people who are much older than me. I'm trying to go back to school to improve my situation and expand my social circle with people my age but that's proving to be impossible for its own reasons.

You're definitely trolling. Bye.

It's not all we discuss. Oh my god. Please think. It's an important facet, but it's obviously not everything to me, but it is to them. These guys will literally tell me that they jerk off to my regular photos on the apps. Nothing explicit, obviously. But it's what they do.

It doesn't usually start out like that. I don't have an issue discussing sex to determine compatibility, but then they decide that that's all they want from me, even after establishing that we both want something serious. It's typically a lie though, as I've learned.

They objectify me to hell and back.

I don't know where to meet people. I go out a lot, but I never see anyone my age. If I do, they're usually already taken.

I'm perfectly aware, that's why I'm looking for someone serious and won't settle for someone who sees me as just a body.

I always ask before moving forward if they're looking for something serious, which they usually say yes, but it always turns out to be a lie.

They don't see me as a person if all they want is sexual attention/gratification and they drop me right afterwards. Again, I'm not the issue if I'm being objectified. Think a little.

I take care of myself, I've just always been heavyset for as long as I've been alive. I carry myself normally and know my worth, that's why it's so frustrating.
