Fact or Fact: there's no point in calling out red flags in a relationship when the person is whipped.

@SW-User it pisses me off to this day that the red flags to look out for are not taught to teenage girls in the later years of ELEMENTARY school when they actually tend to START dating.

We did at that age. Nothing terribly serious but that's when it started with my class mates. Two whole generations that found out what an abusive relationship was from Google now when they should have from Caring Adult Teachers.

@BetweenKittensandRiots yeah if anything it’s all condoned because “boys will be boys” or if they’re mean “it means they like you”

@SW-User I'm so sorry that happened to you.

@SW-User I WAS BORN MALE and IF I'm into somebody I will treat them like they are Fucking ROYALTY, not mean.

@BetweenKittensandRiots and that’s good, I’m glad you do. But I just meant in terms of when I was young and first learning about stuff like that, most adults told me that if a boy was mean that meant he liked me.

@SW-User okay, that's bullshit. There's a difference between being mean and being abusive. Also, boys can be boys all they like but boys will still have consequences. Or at the very least, they should.

@GohantheThird I agree. They should.

@SW-User I want to go back in time sometimes and punch the adults who did that to every girl i've ever liked. Like HARD. VERY HARD and tell them to shut the hell up.

You know who being Mean to girls you like is for? Cowards. Fucking emotional sniveling cowards who are too Chickenshit to fess to their crushes face that they like her.

These people lack a certain kind of courage that means they should be avoided even if they aren't abusive.

it's completlely overrated not saying how you feel anyways.

@SW-User Seriously it infuriates me.... because honestly romantic attraction is one of the most universal feelings in the world and totally normal and unfortunately the mentality basically suggest that it's something to be ashamed of and aside from simply BRAINWASHING women to accept abuse there are OTHER knockoff effects to it, such as the implicit message that having a crush is something embarrassing or to be ashamed of. and for me it's sort of effected things like nearly having to provide explaination or justification for feeling the way I did about them which is something that I can sort of see as an opportunity to flirt with them but something that really should have to have excuses made for.

I'm TIRED of being made to feel like I should Apologize for having feelings for someone. Cause if there's one thing I'm Not remotely sorry for it's that.
