I feel like it’s been so long since I’ve been on here, but I’m gonna take you on a ride on the story boat... promise it won’t take long ;)
So there’s an app that you can use that connects to your Snapchat, and people that use it have to upload a profile picture, and if each person agrees then it will connect to you to Snapchat to talk on there. So I met this guy, Jack, and he actually messaged me first, and I was like “well he seems legit” and I added him.
so I snapped him a picture of my face saying hi per usual, but instead of snapping back he just messages me, but I don’t think anything of it and we just keep talking, and then the next day I’m like “hey why are you not snapping me back”, and he was like “ I don’t usually use snaps, because I don’t like it“ And in my mind I was like ‘huh that’s weird, but not really a big deal, it’s his thing’., So I keep messaging, And me and him talk all the way to the next day and then I ask “ Hey do you want to FaceTime sometime tonight“ and I wasn’t necessarily looking to date him or anything, but I was just making friends, and if it lead to something else then it leads to something else. And he was like “ I’m just not that comfortable still, I like my privacy, I know it might seem sketchy but I just want to keep messaging“ and he brings up that he had this thing happen with his mom and this other thing that happened with his ex-girlfriend, so I’m trying to be sensitive, and I compromise and say “ Oh do you want to like do it in a week then“ mind you I’ve only ever seen this dude’s profile pictures, and when I asked him to send me more pictures of myself since he didn’t snap he sent me the same pictures, but I was too blind to even notice.
so I keep talking to him, and we talk every single night, texting I mean, for about another week. And then yesterday I said “ Do you think we can call or FaceTime or something“ at this point me and this boy flirting and everything so I figured he’d be super chill with it, but then he says again that he’s not interested in doing anything else than messaging, and I start getting super red flags in my head, this guy doesn’t have a massive online presence, like a regular 18-year-old I would imagine he would have, he has A super low snap score, which is weird since he told me he only uses snap, and he only has one picture on Instagram that’s pretty blurry with only two followers on his page. So I start to feel a bit sketchy, and I’m confronting him about why he doesn’t want to see my face if we’re flirting all the time and every single time he keeps avoiding it and giving me shit answers, and I want to compromise with him, because I don’t wanna push him out of his comfort zone but I also need to feel comfortable and make sure I know who I’m talking to, and I shouldn’t have let it gotten that far but I did. Then he started saying things that were really manipulative and trying to make me feel guilty and bad about wanting to push him, and I was trying to be as sympathetic and sensitive to him as I could, it was becoming obvious that he wasn’t to me, and then he started sort of victimizing himself. And saying that because his mom was this way that he just has a really hard time trusting, and he already told me this whole story about his mom Annabelle his ex-girlfriend, which I see really no relation to why he wouldn’t wanna call the girl that he’s been talking to, and he began wanting to just completely stop the argument and trying to see things to distract me from the argument, at that point I was like we should stay on topic and like handle a situation like adults, because I was literally trying to give him a fighting chance, and give him every opportunity, but then last night he laugh by saying “ I just need some distance from it“ and I HATE HAT HATE. Going to bed with an active argument happening, I’m all for working it out then and there if it can be, but he was just giving up, and then today he never texted me at all, because I was gonna text him after he did that, so I sent him this whole long message saying that I was just done
so maybe I was catfish because the whole thing was just a little bit sketchy that he didn’t even want to see pictures of his face normally, and he avoided every time, but even if he was who he said he was high think I would have a hard time trusting him now anyway, so yeah that’s where I am right now
Thanks for coming to my ted talk :))
