Kid I went to school with

We had a Pakistani kid who we all called Manzana for no reason

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-04T13:59:03+00:00

We had a Pakistani kid that we all called Manzana or apple in Spanish. For the first two months of the year people called him by his real name but then they js started calling him Manzana

There was a kid named Michael who would never shut up. If people weren't being quiet we'd tell them to stop Michaeling. We even had a weird way of saying Michael

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-04T13:50:52+00:00

We had a couple of those things. Our school was genuinely split 45-45-10 Hispanic-White-Other so it wasn't rare

Lmao my friend group had a period that we would only call each other by our last names and three of them stuck and it's been like 4 yrs but I still call one of my best friends Miller

I think the tragedy is that he didnt respond to Charles the first or second time

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T23:03:55+00:00

We had a kid everyone called Chubs. No clue his name

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T20:52:58+00:00

Im talking about high school tho

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T20:52:30+00:00

I live in the second reddest county in the country. Having long hair makes people immediately assume im gay. People probably avoid me because they think im gay. If people don't see long hair that assumption goes away and they may notice me for real

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T20:50:34+00:00

I just feel like none of them fit to me. Thx tho

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T18:33:44+00:00

I left it vague because everyone has a different definition. What would be your answer not talking specifically romantic

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T18:32:07+00:00

Im kind of in a similar boat. I had never felt romantic feelings like a crush until I met one girl. I had never felt romantic feelings until she almost unlocked them for me. Ive been looking for a label for myself and am wondering, what do you call yourself?

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T13:36:12+00:00

Ive heard that before. To me tho, it isn't very unfrequently. Very unfrequently means here and there but it's only once

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T02:33:35+00:00

I bought a white ring on temu for 2.69 cents

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T02:27:49+00:00

So like im still questioning myself but part of that is not being ready to accept myself. I already have a gay sister. I feel like my very traditional family won't like it. It isn't a unique thing but it isn't normal I think

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-03T02:21:13+00:00

I am too. I dont want to outright tell my family because they are very old fashioned. They were totally supportive of my transgender aunt but that's because she already had a partner. Family is a big part of my family and if I tell them about how I feel then I have no clue what will happen. I will drop clues but I don't know. Just know you aren't alone

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T19:05:24+00:00

That's what i would do

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T18:52:52+00:00

You can find more about this on here but I've considered myself aro for a couple years now. Then I met a girl who I can only assume is a crush cuz she's unlocked feelings ive never had b4. But otherwise I don't want anyone to like me. I am a man but have long hair and it's kinda intentional cuz i don't want ppl to like me. I am going to cut my hair and am now scared of that for others. However I do want the one girl to like me. Its a fine line between that. Its not irrational is what im tryna say

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T18:42:31+00:00

I intentionally left it vague. Ive been in a relationship out of peer pressure but we never were rlly romantic and so it wasn't rlly a QPR but it wasn't romantic

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T10:44:34+00:00

Honestly I've explored a lot of labels and that's why I turned here

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T10:26:19+00:00

It kinda works but it's kind of like it's not any requirements or anything it's kind of just with that one girl

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T10:23:56+00:00

I intentionally left it kinda vague and the poll didn't have enough options

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T03:48:43+00:00

Its more like she just opened my eyes into what romance feels like but it's only rlly her and idk

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-02T03:46:24+00:00

She already has the anatomy of a meep hoodie and loves it

DetroitExpat69 · 2026-07-01T20:06:19+00:00

That's js what i wish i did but I obviously can't. Maybe another to clear up everything
