That guy is hardly a Darfur war orphan or anything and he has clearly never been robbed at gunpoint but I dunno how I'd react to someone that close to me having a property-destroying tantrum followed by pounding on my door yelling and crying for several minutes either  Pvt.Scott posted:I was sixteen, you monster! Yeah I dunno if we can really blame a sixteen-year-old for not knowing how to react smoothly to a non sequitur sexual come-on If a teenaged boy engineered a situation where he was alone with a girl and then said "you know I just LOVE eating pussy" or something he'd strike out hard, and that's without even making awkward allusions to the girl's bodily insecurities e: "they say chubby girls are better in bed because they want it more"

I interpreted him as being scared in a "oh poo poo I broke her mind, what happens now?" way rather than an "I am personally in danger" way. But he has still obviously lived a very sheltered life if he hasn't ever had to deal with someone getting messily emotional.

Yeah I don't think he was scared of her kicking his rear end (or I hope not, heh), I think he was scared of the implication. Like, now he's got to spend the next few weeks looking over his shoulder, wondering if she's gonna a) lie to everyone he knows about how he cheated on her, b) fake a pregnancy, c) actually be pregnant, or d) straight up lose it and burn his house down. Seeing somebody have a meltdown isn't terrifying because you're worried about what they'll do in that moment; it's terrifying because you're realizing you thought you knew this person but you have no idea what they're capable of.

HardDiskD posted:My [25/F] fiancé's [28/M] brother [25/M] drunk dialed me saying he's in love with me. This is a bad idea but a legitimate post: poo poo your pants before you talk to him. The smell will shatter his "she's perfect" view of you. If he asks, tell him that you have food poisoning. I imagine he's obsessed and not "in love" and this will take care of that. He'll justify it as normal in his head to avoid seeing his sister-in-law that way but the damage to his feelings will be done.

I was thinking that he could just be rattled by the display rather than the implications. Some people get really jacked up by extreme emotions or things like 'mental health emergencies', either because they have been sheltered from such things and panic when unsure how to respond, or sometimes the opposite where they've experienced a bunch of trauma and get triggered by anything that seems like it could lead to more. Some people also have a sort of over-reactive empathy response where if they see someone freaking out they can't prevent themselves from also freaking out rather than doing something to help the situation.

If there was an "most awkward ways I hosed up with the opposite gender in high school" thread, 99% of the stories would be much worse than Pvt.Scott's painfully ordinary post.

What kind of person makes racist jokes to people they don't know in real life settings? What kind of person makes racist jokes period? It's amusing how she tries to justify how she didn't gently caress up after the fact too.

The most scared you've been in your life is overstating it, but being very concerned that your ex is having a breakdown outside of your door seems pretty reasonable. On another note, 95% of the redditors that portray themselves as the level headed ones in arguments probably come across as petulant children in real life.

Yeah, I don't know why a man would be scared of his recent insane ex pounding on his door. It's a well-documented fact that women can't use weapons. They have such dainty little hands, they could never pull a trigger, or do any real damage with a knife.

I dunno if it was good enough reasoning to breakup with her without the OP's insecurity filter, but his insecurity doesn't excuse her reaction or lessen it imo.
