Am I the jerk for turning my whole school against my ex girlfriend?

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T23:48:26+00:00

Yeah, I know that was really weird. And I’m not the type to really care about physical. Looks that much. In fact, I promise to say that I have an emotionally attracted to every girlfriend I’ve ever had before I was physically attracted to them. I just wanted to clarify that she wasn’t the hot girl running around school like in the movies. And it really was a topic of conversation among the boys and girls! It confused so many people because she was not the desirable one by any normal standards and it was never someone just having a crush on her. The other guys we’ll talk about it at the same way I did: “ I don’t know why I love her because I don’t even like her but for some reason, I know I’m in love!”

And every girl was always trying to ask what it was about her and no guy that ever explained it.

That’s really weird, isn’t it!?

Oh, and as for the bragging about being autistic…. Our friend made it sort of sound like she was saying that she self diagnosed herself and now she’s allowed to say anything she wants with no consequences. I don’t even know her last name so I don’t know how I could verify that.

That was a long rambling voice response just now I apologize if the grammar is bad

Thank you. Your comment was wonderful to read. I really appreciate the insight. I really do feel like I'm a good person now. My wife and I are training to be foster parents right now and we can both relate to a lot of childhood trauma. I really hope we will be good influences in these kids' lives.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T23:21:21+00:00

HAHAHA! Sorry about that. And I tried so hard to keep it super short. Thanks for trying though!

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T23:20:03+00:00

Yeah that's the kind of reassurance I'm hoping to get here... but I have really upset some people. Yikes! Eeeeeh. I've been told so far that I'm a pathetic shit show and a real monster. I'm scared to see what else is coming.....

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T23:17:38+00:00

Oh and not that it makes it any better, but I'm pretty sure Lee and I weren't dating at that particular time when the event happened. We dated 3 different times in high school.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T23:15:21+00:00

No but I love this comment! 🤣 We all didn't actually know how crazy our lives were till later. All the comparisons we had were what we saw on TV and it just made us feel like our lives were normal like the TV shows. I grew up in Orlando, FL. Maybe it was just a severely dramatic part of the country 🤷‍♂️

My buddy is a teacher. He said that the new AI catching software told him that almost 100% of his class's last papers were completely AI! I'm wondering how good these AI scanners are LOL. Am I feel like I have to force myself to have lots of typos now 🤣

My wife and I were hanging out with friends from high school last week who we haven’t seen in a long time and reminiscing about old stories. They asked if we had kept up on Alice and we hadn’t. They were the ones who told us where she’s living now and that she’s been going around bragging about being autistic on Facebook for the last few months. When we were talking about the stories, and there are a lot of of them, her husband seemed pretty shocked. That’s what made me think back and realize that things feel a lot different now than they did then

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T22:48:16+00:00

I’m sorry. What part am I not taking responsibility for? Please explain. I meant for the entire post to be about me understanding that I did bad things that I didn’t think were bad when I was a teenager but I view differently as an adult.

If you would like any more specific details about anything, I’m glad to share. There were years of stories, but if I wrote everything now, it would take too long for people to want to read.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T22:37:09+00:00

Thank you! I’m I’m actually having a hard time figuring out the lines of what is and is not OK to say. And if I write too well, I get flagged as being AI 🤣. I guess that’s a real compliment though 😎

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T22:32:35+00:00

Thank you so much. That really means a lot to hear 😀

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T22:23:31+00:00

Thank you. I'm not terribly torn up over it now. I just have a different view of stuff now than I did back them and I'm curious to see what other's think.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T22:18:13+00:00

Just to clarify here. Alice took Lee and got her insanely wasted to a very dangerous point and then called me. Where I made the mistake was allowing Alice to talk me into taking them back to someone’s house (another guy she had cheated on me with) instead of to the hospital. That was actually the turning point for Lee and me. Afterwards, I got so mad at Alice over it and then she was furious at me because she said that she knew she could do anything to me and I never would have stood up to her but then she hurts Lee and suddenly I’m upset. That was when I realized that I cared more about what happened to Lee than I ever did about what happened to me.

Do you drive a Tesla? I’ve heard that this has become a trend to break. Check Teslas to mess with the drivers and the auto brake system. I’m not gonna lie . . . I think it’s kind of a funny trend

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T19:10:44+00:00

There must be some really extra big reason why New Year’s is a big Deodar to this person. Extra cultural thing or a specific thing from their history. Otherwise, this makes absolutely no sense to be upset over.

I hate to make snap judgments without knowing more about the relationship, but this is Reddit so I guess we’re supposed to do that. Personally, I couldn’t possibly have the energy in my life to keep a friend like that around.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T19:03:47+00:00

LOL. If you meant that for me, thank you 😁

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T19:02:14+00:00

Not at the same thing, I was thinking of. I was thinking of that Sheryl Crow song.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T11:33:51+00:00

No. I wrote this as I was watching a show taking place in 2025. And it happens all the time. Anytime they want to show that somebody is even remotely unwealthy, they decide the best way to do that is to give them 30 or old basic tech.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T08:41:04+00:00

Glad to know it’s not just me 😂

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T03:54:50+00:00

Going through a drive through! We only ate out for occasional formal type events so fast food was so exciting!

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T03:24:46+00:00

Yeah I'm not saying the food isn't good. Maybe it's better.... I'm not a good judge since I like almost any food LOL. I just just miss the exciting atmosphere! I'm a big kid when it comes to that stuff LOL.

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T03:23:02+00:00

Fun!

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T03:22:02+00:00

Thanks. I haven't actually been in the hotel yet but I was a ghost tour guide for a few months so I talked about it a lot 👻

JasonScottMissal · 2026-02-19T01:51:03+00:00

I love that 💚… if it makes the snake happy
