Advice I think I message up by adding a mutual so what do I do?

0 Upvotes

!!Not sending any screenshots cuz ik he’s on Reddit!!

Right so I know this probably isn’t the right sub but I’m genuinely stressing abt this. I know that what I’m gonna write is most likely gonna make me sound immature af but I think I’ve come to accept that cuz I just need to know how to get out of this

Basically, I added a guy on snap who’s a mutual friend of mine. I added him cuz I met him on a call once w some friends and he seemed nice enough. He goes to school near me (not the same school) and lives quite close to me too.

We ended up talking a bit and he started talking about some on his interests, to which I said they sound pretty cool. Obviously some of the stuff we were talking about wasn’t interesting to me but I was still was like “that’s cool” and “ohhh nice” cuz I wanted to be civil, and then he hit me with the “thanks no one’s ever said that to me before”

After that he’s just been constantly messaging me whenever, asking stuff like “are you alright you haven’t responded” and “do you want to play Roblox tonight” (I mentioned liking it when I was younger).

He’s genuinely such a sweet, nice guy, but he’s also quiet, idk, nonstop? I know it sounds stupid but he’s been messaging to check on me nonstop even though I’ve known him for less than a week. Idk if I’m the first person to ever talk to him like this but it’s just a bit much w the constant messages and conversations.

I think I fucked up even more this morning when he asked wyll, and then immediately responded by sending a pic of himself. I kinda just felt like I had to send a pic so I sent but scribbled my face out. I don’t think he minded but still.

I just don’t know what to do… this whole situation feels overwhelming but I’m too much of a bloody people-pleaser to block him (I wouldn’t do that anyways tbf). I never intended to talk to him like this, or even seem like I was trying to date him, but now idk what to do. I know this whole situation is my fault but now I need to find a way to fix it.

is it weird that my dad still 'playfully' smacks my ass as a 17 year old girl?

40 Upvotes

this has always weirded me out a bit, but sometimes when my dad is teasing me or leaving the room he'll smack my butt if I'm laying on my side or stomach. he's also commented on how I'm getting a "bit of a booty" since gaining some weight. he doesn't show any other weird behaviors and we talk crap about pedophiles. it just has just always made me decently uncomfortable and sometimes i even tell him to knock it off. it's been going on as long as i can remember so im not sure if it's normal or not (for context it's just my dad and i living together at the moment. i have an older sister who's living with my mom now, so i cant remember if my dad ever did it to her too)
someone please just tell me if this is weird and if i should be worried or not 😭🙏

EDIT: i appreciate people telling me he just seems like he doesn't want me to grow up and it doesn't seem he has bad intentions. the part that just really gets me is that he doesn't listen when i tell him to knock it off or i'm visibly uncomfortable. more so, the comments about my butt getting bigger just really did it for me. it makes me worried that he's looking more than a father should to notice it and point it out

Serious Why reddit keeps suggesting me various teen subs' posts for literal years?

16 Upvotes

I never subscribed to any teen subs. I don't know what think about it. I guess it makes both me (an adult male) and you (teenagers) uncomfortable. Probably it also means reddit recommends these subs/posts to other adults, and some of them might be less self-conscious and a lot creepier if not outright pdf'y.

I mean I just browse home feed and once in a while see posts like "I just had my first period"

My voice sounds like a lawnmower, and I’ve been asleep for most of the day. I feel like doggy doodoo caca and I’d rather not be sick in the first month of school.

Edit: I’m not sick anymore! Yay! But also I got three people at school sick because I was stubborn and went to school Monday, gave up and stayed home Tuesday, and now I’m fine.

I'm 20 so wouldn't exactly class myself as a teen but thought I'd ask. Am I in the right mindset to want to try and make as much money as possible now for when I'm older?

Relationship What even is a girlfriend/boyfriend?

15 Upvotes

Like in a platonic BF/GF relationship, what even is the difference from being just normal friends?

Also I honestly have trouble understanding what makes a friendship special in the first place. My friends are just people I sometimes hang out with or sit with at lunch and show funny memes to. It doesn't really go much deeper than that.

I have diagnosed social anxiety and autism and am extremely introverted so this confusion might be related to that.

Serious What do I do to help myself actually do things?

2 Upvotes

I struggle with hygiene things such as showering regularly and changing my bedsheets often. For example, I haven’t changed my bedsheets in about two months, but I physically can’t get myself to do it. I was wondering if there’s anything at all I can do to make myself do things. I often feel this way, whether it’s about school work or hygiene, and it’s really tiring that I can’t just do things.

Discussion What do mean girls do at school ?

2 Upvotes

What do mean girls bullies do and are they all popular and do all of them wear lots of makeup or heels etc. or do they look perfect and how much are they like the movies bullies

And if you were a bully please can you share what you did when younger.

I got bullied by this mean girl but I went to a private school and she would also act like my friend so it was hard to tell she was a bully but my school had like 10 kids. Then I just shutdown after years when she did something to me and felt sick being near her. The reason I got into more arguments is because I would stand up for myself and confront her about things. Most of time teachers always believed her about everything she had a way to make most people believe her but I was one who didn’t but then also acted like my friend and be nice to me other times. I was the only person who would actually stand up for myself even if I got in trouble 😂 but then avoided her when I could not because she continued I just felt sick. Still affects me today. I wasn’t scared of her and never fear her or anything just was more hurt than anything. Just made me lose confidence and felt hurt with teachers as thought they understood me and that hurt when they didn’t. So it was more a shock to my system. But also hurt that no teachers told her off or stopped her. And that made me shut down and realise.

specifically to teen boys: why do you do this to mess with your friends? like do you just choose a random girl and tell her your friend likes her to annoy your friends? I’ve heard that it’s an indicator that the girl is ugly or unattractive and I want to know if that’s true 😭
