I got asked out by someone who later admitted to trying to mess with my feelings. I didn't even like her and I wasn't very popular so I said yes just to be nice. The look on her face when I didn't care that she broke up with me in front of her friends was priceless. I went right back to looking at something on youtube while she started getting angry with me. Those were some good times...
My version was that and "too busy reading." Tbf, Tim's pool party could NOT have been as interesting as that dinosaur book that I still think about 20 years later.
For the last 2 years at my primary school it was common for everyone at some point to come up and do the "I like you" prank luckily 5-6th grade me was smart enough to know they were messing with me, that shit really messed with me and ruined my self-esteem for years. One of the pranks ended up with me gaining 4 stalkers who would follow me when I'd walk home everyday and throw rocks at my animals. I gotta love how the teachers handled it with and I quote them on this "boys will be boys"
I feel like the "dating prank" is one of the most hurtful things someone can pull. At the same time, some people will push it away and not get hurt but those who do have issues coming back.
@@Mia-yx5gf I will be completely honest I physically can't relate because I've never liked anyone in my school I only thought of the few normal class mates as normal, who weren't as terrible as most of my class mates who were friends with people on higher classes who were even worse I once had those kids enter the room saying things that would make them look cool and then when they said something racist I was just done after years of my voice being quiet I lashed out screaming on top of my lungs about how many racist idiots were in this school the second I stopped and looked up they were gone good thing I went to theatre as a kid I think that helped out a little
Yeah. When someone gets hit or hurting them some other fisicall way then that healls in a few hours, but emotional pain takes a long long time to go away. Even worse if it was really embarasing the its will (at least by me) more than 5 years od not reminding myself or being reminded to forget it, but even then the memory can be called back in a second.
"You're a loser if you treat others like losers" A LEGEND: that's what my teacher said then I made bullying a career Also is a it a glitch because I see no replys
Well, you are a loser too then. You said "you're a loser if you treat others like losers." Meaning that you are calling the person that treats others like losers, a loser.
I got asked out a couple times only to be told “Psyche!” And laughed at. It was mostly boys being jerks and yeah, it did tear my self esteem down to the point that if someone says that another person has a crush on me, I have to say “Are they sure” and I go on a whole thing about it. But yeah, dating pranks stank and I’m glad you didn’t fall for it, good on you for seeing the warning signs
I got asked out as a dare or bet I didn’t know so when they asked I just tried to ignore them but they told me to just say no already so I did middle school is weird
2 girls walked up to me in passing period. Plans to get attention, PLAN A: She had walked up to me and tap me on the shoulder, ME: Shrugs, turns around, Give a confused and annoyed glare, Girl #1: “My friend w-“, turn around and walk away. PLAN B: Run up to me and bump me, Girl #1 “HEY!!my friend-“ ME: “What the FUCK dude, buzz off” and push her back into her friend. PLAN C: Absolutely knows this is gonna work and tells her friend to get her girly gang here and goes in to physically turn me around ME: “WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?!” Girl #1 “Uh, my friend here wants to date you, she’s really into you ya know” GIRL #2 “Yeah, you want me don’t you?” Girly gang shows up but try to act normal ME: man… some weird ahh 6th graders… I have never seen them in my life and… oh I know what happening “NO” and I speed up. Girl gang yell “DAYAAANG just got rejected”
umm that's pronounced siekey Psyche is the human soul, mind, or spirit. and is not psych just take the e off. thank you!!!😄interesting story btw, have a good one!
I swear someone tried to ask me out as a joke by interrupting me while I was talking to friends. I promptly said no and continued what I was saying without any further thought. I was so blunt that it was probably more embarrassing for her than anyone.
Me in 6th grade: Listening to the girls talk about how cute T is (the new boy) The girls: Ask me who I have a crush on Me: "Oh, well I guess I like S (boy I had chosen as my crush)!" The girls: "Ew, really?" Me: "Well I actually like T more" The girls: "Okay" And thus a people pleaser was born
Yeah the only time I had crushes was maybe in late preschool or early elementary school. Other than that, I never had a crush since. Too young love is kinda low-key pressure onto some of us.
The people who do this are cruel. Especially if you do it to someone like the quiet kid, who probably already has a hard time opening up about their feelings but really want to, only for someone to give them false hope.
that might even make someone suicidal I remember the time when I felt terrible about my hope of something happening being fake and remembering I never had a choice nor control I haven't been bullied that way obviously but such a thing still hurts
My self esteem/worth is low, but it sure as peck isnt bc of social status. "Is it even bullying if it doesn't work?" is now one of my life mottos thanks for that quote 😂
I honestly don't know what to say. The way you humorise certain people's stupidity is so astonishing and unique to me- but you still manage to make it so relatable, this hit very close to home, almost as much as your 'draw my life' videos. You're an amazing storyteller! And im really glad you realized your self worth and try to make others do the same too! Keep up!
@@shgurr Wait. You were in 6th grade but you were still in elementary school? I guess that this is something that differs by state, but in Georgia, elementary school = kindergarten-5th grade, middle school(AKA junior high school) = 6th grade-8th grade, and high school = 9th grade-12th grade.
@@Optimegatrongodzilla huh, that's cool to hear. I was still in Elementary when going to 6th Grade. I think it's cool to hear how the system may work in different states (I'm in Utah btw lol)
I’ve been asked out as a prank, and I said no. The guy walked back to his group of friends and they all started laughing at him instead of at me because he got rejected by the weird, ugly girl haha
This is basically the exact situation I went through in 8th grade, though it was at lunch. It was the same day I got my period & people were murmuring at the lunch table instead of saying anything to me -.-
Sadly, most dudes are driven by how a girl look. Especially, from highschool. Nothing to feel bad about, I feel sorry for girls who have to date those a****** who doesn't know those dudes just date them for shallow reasons. For me, I rather not date someone like that.
I was asked out casually as a joke, SEVERAL times. Despite the fact that I am hella sapphic and am also super picky about the men I am attracted to. But this ONE GUY.... He harassed me as a joke or sum, idk his motive. But this traumatized me and the harassment lasted about a week and a half. He did this in front of my entire Algebra class. It started as just a couple compliments, but he then continued addressing me and it got worse and worse. He literally tried to take a pic of my face one time. He asked me to be his gf multiple times. His friend even said "couldn't I make an exception" when I said I didn't like men. He even said "Kiss me! Kiss me!" while we were IN MATH CLASS. IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY. Then I reported this to the guidance counselor and he didnt believe me.
I heavily relate to finding a spot where no one is commonly found, making it comfortable enough, then disassociating while listening to music. 😂 I did that all the time in high school. It was a lot better than trying to talk about my music interests to my Jazz elitist classmates. They bullied me all the time because I listened to metal. So naturally I asked the teacher if I could perform a song for the class one day, and played the bass line for Korn's "Shoots and Ladders." 🥰
My story was pretty simple, back in like 5th grade there was "the popular girl" who everyone seemed to like, but she was just kinda mean to everyone. So one day, she came up to me ("the weird kid"), and said she liked me and wanted to go out. So I just said "ha no" immediately, and the shock and confusion from her and her friends was priceless.
"Does bullying even count if it doesn't work?" Yes. I think yes. I was also a target of these childish fake date pranks in middle and high school. Though they tended to do the 'fake love letter' version. They'd leave a fake letter in my locker (of which I never used, goes to show how stupid these bullies were, and how little they know people like us), of a boy proclaiming to love me, and to meet up after school. One time, I saw my classmates giggling and loitering around my locker, waiting for me to go and spring a bullying attack on me. I noped my way out of that one. Unfortunately, they found many, many ways of tormenting me. Ignoring them never worked. Even to this day, as an adult, I'm still disrespected and harassed by my adult peers who like to target me. Things suck.
@@mariomations5800 I'm a lot older than 16. In high school, having some friends helped. But once high school ended, things didn't get better. I'm probably older than Shannon/Shgurr is, and I still struggle with people (strangers and not) finding it okay to insult, embarrass, or outright abuse me. I've tried everything, and I do mean everything to cope with it. Now I've just resigned myself to my misery and depression.
Honestly, same. "Oh, children are so cute and innocent!" No. No, they are Monsters. I dont really remember, but i have a feeling that something like that did happen to me. I know one time the *cool kids* invited me to hang out with them. I knew it a trap, so i never showed up. Sure enough on monday they came to me and said how sorry they were for standing me up and maybe next Time? They froze when i told them that i didnt show up either and went to see a movie with my friends. They seriously never expected that i did have friends, they just went to a diffirent School.
@@averageunitydev7089maybe he changed school bc i have no friend in my new school i am a loner but i have like 50 real life friends in my old neighborhood
A lot of people did the “this guy likes you” routine to me in junior high. My answer (when I was single) was always the same: “if he wants to date me, he can ask me himself.” And they never did. Not that it matters, since I would’ve said no anyways because I didn’t even know their names or anything about them. Granted, at the time, I didn’t realize I was being made fun of, so I just thought all these boys were lovesick cowards who clearly didn’t deserve my attention since they couldn’t even respect me enough to ask me out directly. Not to mention, sometimes they would ask me this while I had a boyfriend already, which only lowered my opinion of them even further.
I was the Autistic Kid who was casted out as the "Weird Gross Quiet Kid" so I was quite literally a huge target for most types of bullying including constant dating pranks. It sucked and still now sucks a lot. I actually feel kinda bad because 1 or 2 guys actually seemed a bit genuine and I just stood their silent not knowing what to say and just wanting to go back to my drawings. And I feel bad for not being able to tell with them. Tho there was a time a guy nearly got beat up by some girl for trying to start a dating prank like joke on me so uh that was pretty funny.
@@samjustsamok8837 I think this person is referring to how it's not fun to watch someone get beat up Even though the guy was wrong to make the "prank", it's pretty disturbing that someone finds that funny I'm not insulting or anything, just that the last thing was something I didn't expect
The dating prank was weird for me personally. There’s also the sister prank, the friend prank, where someone says “omg hi best friend” when I don’t even know the person. I was shown these two pranks in many ways. Of course there’s the classic “my friend likes you” but I also got some girl who just held my hand and told me she loved me which was weird, and some other girl insisting that we were already dating. I wasn’t hurt by these people trying to “date” or “befriend” me, but I did have the premptive assumption that people who I wasn’t already acquainted with showing affection to me were doing it as a ploy. I rejected everyone, genuine or not until I started dating my current bf, I was loyal before we even started dating.
Lmao when people done that to me i just start telling them their ugly af while having a look of disgust and they look suprised and have a laugh at out it later
I’ve had many people come up to me and say “hey best friend!” I was so confused but I went with it. I never took it as bullying though, maybe I was just oblivious 😂 I didn’t care anyways so?? Eh???
My cousin and his friends played that prank on me while I was a freshman in highschool, im still having major mental health issues from it while a sophomore in highschool
I was constantly asked out by three boys in middle school. Every time I grew happy they would ridicule me that no one would ever want me. Needless to say, it bore significant impact on me. I saw them again in Highschool and had the same classes with them. They wondered why I carried such a distance from them. I told them why in an honest and brutal way. They tried to apologize, but I wasn’t having it. Those things they said no longer bare any weight. As I have moved on, and if anyone comments on my lack of a spouse. It doesn’t bother me at all.
I have been prank dated multible times years ago...... and sadly my self esteem and confidence has not recovered to this day...... and i think for many more days to come...
I was asked out as a joke at an old friends house by someone who had joined in bullying me for 2 years and I got so pissed off and scared. The night ended up with me barricading myself in a room, pushing myself up against the door to stop them all getting into the room. I was later blamed for someone’s finger getting stuck in the door when they tried to get in and got yelled at by the parents. I felt so bad even though I knew I was defending myself.
I'm so sorry you went through this TWICE. Getting asked out as a prank once ruined getting asked out for me for so long. Thank you for sharing your story and insight!!
I get these pranks so many times that I actually started writing down scenarios of what to say during these stupid encounters. 1. Ask what the friend looks like, and then scream and run away at the sight of them 2. Tell the person trying to prank you that you like them more, and then lead them on instead. 3. Tell the person that's trying to prank you that their friend told you personally that they're gay. LOOK SINCERE AND SAD. homophobia is common in bullies and they won't expect someone like you to lie about their friend like that. (I should know, I almost ruined a kid's life by doing that) (Edit: uhhh looking back I think this is horrible advice just read my reply to this)
@ actually looking back at this, this is horrible advice 😭 they might laugh at you more. Instead just say “haha very funny I LOVE this joke” or “okay i get it haha” acknowledge that it’s a joke.
@@kitbunz3441 dismiss my old advice, you might get made fun of more if you give a snarky reaction. if you want the perfect response, just say “haha so funny! anyways-.” or say “Okay”
Being asked out as a prank was something that I would experience frequently in middle school, as I was already severely bullied for being ugly and poor. It was usually guys who were telling me "my friend has a huge crush on you, he thinks you're a bombshell, he wants to date you" as they were laughing uncontrollably with their group, or a single boy who would tell me he was in love with me, taht I was pretty, blah blah blah. The only thing I could do was telling them to stfu, I couldn't say or do anything that would make them stop this stupid ass prank that made me feel so bad about myself. Thank god this period is long over!

I've had boys ask me out as a joke a few times. I was really stupid in my primary school years and didn't correlate crush = romance and thought they actually...wanted to crush me. And I didn't like the idea of getting beaten up by offending someone accidentally, so I'd always panic and apologize over and over, and they'd just be super confused. I'm just genuinely incapable of feeling love. Romantic, intimate, platonic, family, or otherwise. And that's valid.
You don’t have to understand love just feel it not try to. That’s why people say they can’t fall in love, just umm let it happen and if it doesn’t then oof and also yay cause love is the best and worst thing ever
Yesterday afternoon, I cut my hair super short and I was scared people would think it looked bad when I went to school today, I got alot of good comments on my hair but there was these group of year 9ns walking past me and they said “her hair looks really bad” and where snickering at me, and that broke my self confidence completely and I hid in my classroom for the rest of my day, but your message at the end of this video really made me happy and feel much better❤❤
I was asked out twice as a joke when I was younger, and one of those times was with a fake note where a group of guys used it to have me meet my "secret admirer" in a place and beat the shit out of me. In college, a girl genuinely asked me out with a note, and I thought it was another prank. Thankfully, I thought it over and realized that was actually unlikely given the circumstances. Those experiences really threw off a moment when someone had genuine interest, and there was an entire relationship I could have missed out on had I been in a worse headspace at the time.
Man I got something similar on a vacation from a random person I didn't know and just ignored it being too stupid to understand what it meant, but it was propably the same one as your first one described
I got asked out one time in the lunch room in high school as a prank, and I could very clearly tell it was a prank cuz it was one guy's friend in a group of boys and it always pissed me off every time, but I never did anything about it until that day. Where I just, removed my headphones, and just said "leave me the fuck alone, I know your friend doesn't actually fucking like me, just let me eat in peace." Never got bothered during lunch again after that and what a blissful time it was. I enjoyed watching cartoons and eating alone at lunch. It was my time of solace, of comfort, me time. I was so damn proud of myself for finally standing up for myself. I wish I could do that more often tbh ngl.
Yes, I was asked out as a prank. The first time was when some kids played "OREO" (the loser has to ask someone out). It was in the sixth grade. The kid, who probably was scared of rejection (or me saying yes, even), told me about the game before asking me out. So of course I said no. The second time was in the middle of science class in the seventh grade when a girl went up to me and asked if I would like to go out with some kid named Luke. I said no, because I was already skeptical. Then for some reason the group of kids persisted and Luke asked me out face-to-face (with the others watching). I said no again because I still thought it was a prank. He might not have been pranking me. I don't think that's the case. He was rather sociable, and I was a scraggly-haired kid autistic girl who wore T-shirts with bad puns and who used primarily memes to interact with people. I was painfully awkward.
I was a victim of OREO twice, too, both in 7th grade. First time it was just some dude that I hadn't spoken to and was incredibly popular, but I was so socially anxious at that point I literally just walked away without a word and hid in the girls bathroom. He didn't share any classes with me even. His friend group harassed me for abt a month after. Second time was a weird kid like me. I said yes bc I was really into the idea of dating at the time, but we only "dated" (didn't even see each other at all during that time, btw) for a week before he sent me a VERY long and elaborated letter that went something like: "My love, I feel you have found someone else who sparks the flame of passion within you; I pray he keeps your heart warm where I could not" (i had spoken to another guy briefly and apparently in his eyes that was cheating) Anyway the dating prank is The Worst Prank you can get pulled on you, at least socially. The damage is so deep and so lasting... Kids are cruel.
As a person in school, I can assure you everything has gotten so much worse. I mean this happened to multiple of my friends. One of the "victims" was even a slightly popular kid.
One time I got asked out in high school. This girl walked up to me, handed me a piece of paper, and said “hey… here are my socials and my phone number. we should ‘talk’ sometime.” Me, being me, told her “oh sorry, I’m not going to use that.” Then the period ended and the bell rang, and she ran out crying. I realized a while later she was actually trying to ask me out… still feel pretty bad about that one
In elementary school, there was this girl that I disliked. She would tap my shoulder and say it was her friend that did it. One day, she told me that a guy in our class had a crush on me. I remember asking the guy if this was true, not that I cared if he liked me or not. I wanted to know if the girl was telling the truth. I think I asked something like _Do u like me?_ he said something like _Yeah, like friends._ Several years later, the guy confessed and asked me on a date (I didn't go). I still don't know if the girl was telling the truth or it was all just a coincidence.
It’s actually a nice surprise to hear others see through the attempts of lesser people bothering or trying to toy with innocent peoples minds, can’t relate to being asked out as a joke…or in general across my entire life ;-; but pity aside I always had to deal with irritating crap and mostly reflected with an edgy egotistical loner persona cuz it’s all I could think of, the point I’m getting at is hoping others who suffer at the hands of messy people know to be firm in who they are and own it you can’t lose if you make it clear you don’t care about them or something along those lines idk, great vid as usual shgurr
I've been asked out as a prank. I never had the girl come up to me to say a popular boy has a crush on me, but I have had boys come up to me being like "Do you wanna be my girl friend???" or "Wanna go to homecoming with me???" not because they actually wanted to but because it was "funny to ask the weird girl out and see her reaction" It was clear on their intentions because either they would ignore everything I had to say or their friends would be giggling in the background. Let's just say these interactions gave me great insecurities
This happened to me multiple times in elementary and middle school, I kind of thought I was the only one. A girl also tried to play the “we’re suddenly best friends even though you barely know me” prank on me, but I didn’t fall for it because I had no interest in being friends with her.
Don’t you love it when someone you hate tries to be your friend without stopping their mean actions or even apologizing for them? Or when you’re really small, and someone asks a favor of you in exchange for “being your best friend”. Thank you, I would hate that, now leave me alone I’m thinking about crows.
Dude I have this experience atleast 5 times every month. A girl, and it’s always girls, comes up to me trying to be “a friend” and immediately try to get something out of me. Guys sometimes does this but they give up easily,
In my school there was a trend among the students. They would ask out the unpopular kids, like loners, weirdos, shy, nerds, etc... And then they would "confess" and if they felt the slightest amount of embarrassment or hope and reacted positively, then their friends would come out and laugh at the guys. Some would even pay to the confirmed crushes of said students to do the prank just to make it more painful. I was never affected since I'm both insecure and dense as a brick, but my best friend was targeted once, not a good memory I must say.
why do I continue reading these, it's like an all you can eat buffet but for anger I don't go through those kinds of things but that only makes it worse because I think of the worst possible feeling which makes my heart feel heavy the fact that even my classmates aren't doing this says a lot... or maybe they never got the idea because their brain space was already occupied by all the things they'd do that would piss me off I still don't know why adults think it's because "they're kids" I'm almost the same age and look at me, I'm not a maniac like them I'm a psychopath... but only in my imagination... because of people like them
I feel like I have the similar situation happen to me in my 1st year of high-school. It was druing snack time, I was drawing in the classroom and two guys come to the classroom one is sitting next to me the other was holding his guitar. The guy started playing a love song feels like a confession to a girl but he went to my direction and goes near to the guy who sit next to me and just jokingly confess to the guys. They laugh, my classmates laugh to one of my classmates ask me in a joking manner (from what I could remember cause not sure) " how you feel? Feeling g heartbroken?(again I'm not sure she said that but it's what I interpreted) I was confused and just laugh saying "hah bitch I got no feeling". Tbh expect them to pull a prank on me the moment the other was sitting next to me. weird experince.
I didn’t really… speak… when I was younger- this lead to a lot of bullying for me. People would do anything they could to get me to speak. One of the reasons for this is that I had an unusually high pitched voice and they found this really funny. They would often make horrible inappropriate jokes directed at me or do those “fake asking out” pranks because they knew I wouldn’t respond (I would literally just shut down from the stress of it). They would talk about me right in front of me like I wasn’t there because they knew I wouldn’t say anything. Every time I answered the register they would laugh and imitate my voice, making me even more reluctant to speak. In the end it was pretty bad, with people putting there arms around me to force me to take pictures with them or following me home from school throwing stones at me. Others around me telling me to “ignore them and they will get board”… that advice was so damaging to me, when I actually needed them to step in and do something about it. Lucky my mum was awesome and did everything in her power to fight the school. In the end, when the school were doing nothing els and I was school refusing regularly, she listened to me and what I needed, she taught me from home on the days I couldn’t go in from autistic burn out or anxiety and in the end she needed up taking my school to court. Now I have finally finished secondary school and I’m starting college in September. Even though it was hell (for so many reasons) it’s over now and I’m doing alot better and I can begin to heal from that.
God some people just love to belittle people so much don’t they? I mean I was pretty bad in elementary school but I wouldn’t make fun of people because they sounded funny or were smaller than me. Mostly it was just me not being able to deal with my autism at such a young age, but I made up for it by late elementary school.
I told my bullies that this prank wouldn’t work until they find out what my type was. They tried for five years, getting more and more frustrated with each failure, until they finally completely gave up. I’m Aroace
This happened to me a lot in middle school and it hurt me so much i stopped eating at school and my body became malnourished looking. Which made me even more self conscious. Both girls and guys played this prank on me so i didnt feel loved my either gender and now i struggle to make a connection with the partner i have since it never feels genuine to me. This prank can really fuck someone up and im tired of adults not taking teen depression seriously
I came out as bisexual and a day later I got pranked on text that some girl has a crush on me (I didnt fall for it). And they did this just because of my sexuality 😐
In my experience they are either so overbearing i feel bad about myslef, or they end up gaslighting me into thinking its not real and i shouldnt have it. Genuinley fucked
I remember these kinds of pranks/jokes happening a few times and I was so disassociated with the interest of a relationships or how that'd work I just simply existed and was like "Uh, okay.. no I think I'll be good." then continued to whatever doodle or paper house I was making. Yes, I used to make paper houses and they were indeed furbished.
You know, there's probably a very high chance that girl repressed that date prank thing for years, moving on like nothing ever happened. Then she unsuspectingly tapped on this video, and was suddenly reminded of the time she tried to pull a date prank on a girl and then blew up in her face, bringing back years of cringe and is now trying to cope with the fact she did something so cringy by typing out a comment about how said girl probably repressed this memory for a long time only to tap on this video and be hit with a wave of cringe and is now trying to cope by making a comment about how that girl repressed the memory of trying to pull a date prank on a girl but it backfired in her face and now she's writing a comment about how that girl is never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and dessert you, never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.
@@SunTzuArtOfWar4 Ah see the magic here is that if I just say the lyrics right there and then its not going to be that impressive. It will be a glance and a "Oh- a rickroll, anyways". What you need is that good old momentum to get them reading and not realize it until there almost at the end and suddenly they realize there never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and dessert you, never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.
I'm "The gay kid" in my school. Random boys would walk up to me all the time and say "HE LIKES YOU!" followed by the person in question chasing after them in anger. It happens so often that I just don't care anymore.
yes it happened to me three times first time: the girl said she had a crush on me and listed some similarities between us like how we both have brown eyes...my eyes are blue (primary school) second time: i was walking up some stairs when someone called out to me and said her friend liked me while her friend sat there looking confused so i responded no she doesnt and walked off (year 7/8 highschool) third time: 2 girls were walking the same way as me after school and she said her friend had a crush on me and asked if id date her, id never talked to either of them before so i said no when she asked why not i said i dont even know them whcih they took as an invite to follow me for 5 minutes saying i was insulting her by saying her personality is shit (year 9 highschool) there was one incident where my friend told a girl i had a crush on her which got a response of "oh my god" and "ew" from her friend group while she stood there silently...he is no longer a friend of mine (primary school) in a different yet similar topic i have talked to two women ive had crushes on about crushes and they've both said i didn't seem like the type to have crushes if i had a nickel for every time a crush of mine told me i didn't seem like the type to have crushes id have 2 nickels which isnt a lot but its weird that it happened twice
@@shgurr I've yet to have a crush [possibly may never have one but ya never know], but it doesn't sound like an enjoyable experience as someone who experiences paranoia a lot
This video is really relatable. I'm the kind of person who cares more about my hobbies than crushing people, and I'm also a loner. When I was in 7th grade a girl said someone likes me multiple times, she does it with a different person each time. I didn't have a crush on any of those guys so I just told the truth. What I was thinking is why would there be so many guys liking me, it feels kinda weird. Once, I also had a crush on a guy who really loves to pull the some kind of "crushing" type of bullying to people. I usually don't care about it but he really does an inappropriate amount of that thing that my empathy turns on. I kinda hate having a crush on him, so I just remember about it to get over him.
2:28 for those who are curious, the flag onscreen is the demisexual flag. Demisexuality is not being sexually attracted by people's physical characteristics, their looks, voice, smell, etc Demisexuals feel attraction after they get to know someone's personality and form a emotional bond.
@@kingdmind I can't feel attracted to someone unless I have a pre-existing bond, but I still wouldn't say that it's impossible for me to feel sexual attraction to say, a stranger on the streets. Where exactly would you draw the line then between demisexuality and not? I have never quite understood that well so any clarification would be highly appreciated!
@@unclear6055 Hey, aspec here, not necessarily demi- I am just ace myself, but I have a few demi friends and want to try and explain their experiences. Demisexuality is different for everyone, but it is definitely not the same as just having basic standards and not wanting to raw-dog someone immediately. Demis physically *cannot* experience attraction to someone until a deep bond is formed between two people. People who aren't demisexual can. There is a difference between the two. Allos (people who experience average sexual attraction) could see someone in passing on the street, and think, hey, that person was hot, but not act on it. That's basic self control. Demis could see someone, not feel any attraction to them physically, but become friends, and then only begin to feel sexual attraction after a certain amount of time has passed since that platonic bond has formed. The time varies, as demisexuality is a spectrum like most sexualities. It could take months, years, or in some cases even decades for that bridge to be crossed. Another pointer, is obviously that attraction isn't guaranteed from the bond either, since, say a straight guy isn't attracted to every single girl on the planet, a demisexual person won't be attracted to every person they form a close bond with. I hope I explained it somewhat well? Sorry about the text wall, it's a very complicated thing and it kind of hurts seeing people pass it off as "normal" when there's a distinction, talking from experience as someone on the asexual spectrum.
Those dating pranks worked on me in middle/high school. To the point that I resigned to the thought that I'll die alone as the local crazy cat lady. Well, joke's on them, I'm getting married in 3 months! Still a crazy cat lady, though.
I wasn't asked out as a prank, I got turned down so someone else could continue their "asking out X" prank. The dude found out who his friend wanted to ask to a dance and used this information to ask this poor girl out at every opportunity for the entire week leading up to the dance. She ended up having a breakdown in the bathroom during it because of him since he still didn't stop after the dance started and wouldn't leave her alone. I ended up asking him to the dance the day before it (without knowing about the prank) and he said he'd think about it before saying no around an hour later. Turns out, he was actually kinda into me but decided pranking my friend was a better use of his time. Screw you Jake
The fact that this “dating prank” thing is actually how it started for me is kinda funny. It was my 7th grade dance and someone said I should dance with this girl who I kinda liked and now here we are.
I was stalked by a pimple faced guy who wanted me to be his girlfriend even though he already had a girlfriend, he would walk me to class and ask me to be his girlfriend and sometimes whenever I would be late to class he would alternate times to where if I was late he would show up. He also liked the pop band Gorrilaz and was compelled to draw noodle (Japanese girl from the band) as a tribute to me and made her fat because he liked my appearance (I was dealing with self image issues so having him draw that monstrosity didn't help as much.) The rest of the class made us laughing stocks since one guy pretended to have us married even though that guy stated that we're "just friends." It got so bad that I eventually told both the guidance counselor and the school specialist and after a conversation with a hint of a scary glare later the guidance counselor and the school specialist sat him down, explained everything and from then on he got his schedule changed and I never saw him again.
As another Gorillaz fan and as someone who’s has been dealing with a creepy stalker myself, That sounds absolutely terrible and I’m so so sorry you had to deal with that clown of a guy and that entire circus of a class
I was told as a prank during my middle school years by some kids that I used to hang out on my street with that a girl was obsessed with me and that she finally was brave enough to ask me for a lip kiss. Me, being a naive autistic child, was very suspicious about all this, there were so many plot holes in their story, but I thought that “what if they are telling the truth?” “What if I she genuinely loved me?” “This is my first chance at a proper kiss and I could make something out of it.” So despite all the red flags, I decided to trust them and close my eyes as they told me to, and lean to have my first proper kiss. But my lips didn’t meat the girls lips. Instead my lips met the licks of a white apartment mutt. Luckily what normally would have shot deep in my self image was instead rage at the fact that they pulled this prank on me and a bit of anger directed at myself for going into something despite noticing serious red flags. My self image escaped intact and this event just died down and I let go of it.
Even tho your self image might not have shattered, those people probably got everything they wanted and probably told everyone how you were absolutely crushed.
I was known as the “nun of the school” because I’m asexual. I had this prank happen to me a few times in middle and high school. These guys, were pervy idiots who thought it be funny. I would either ignore them or flip them the bird.
As someone who just started animation, I 10000000% have 190000000x more appreciative how much work it takes to make a video, I finished making a video of a hamster jumping that's like 1 minute, and that took like an hour.
There was a dating prank attempt on me once in high school and I sniffed that shit out so fast. Red flags were 1) I've never seen them before in my life. I just happened to be passing by them on the way to my lunch table. 2) The interested party was not the one asking me out. 3) My self-esteem was so low, I didn't believe that anyone was romantically interested in me anyways. Jokes on them, I already hate myself more than they hated me.
Simular experience, middle school a group of girls were apparently daring each other to ask out guys, one girl asked me and the first thing I did was glance back to see the girls and asked her "your friends dared you to ask me, didn't they?" Right the first guess, she said yes and walk back to the group, can't tell if her walking back was sadder or me immediately guessing it
I feel like I have all the qualities to make me a target of bullying, yet I experience none. People at my middle school and high school just didn't care, I slide by easily and attract very little attention. On the rare occasion people do take notice, it's to compliment a shirt I'm wearing. Despite all of this, there was one time where, like, two girls ran up to me while I was walking out of school. I say "like" because I never made eye contact with them, I focused on walking, so I don't truthfully know who or how many there were. One randomly asked something along the lines of "do you like me?" or "wanna date." I was completely confused so I said no and speed up, only hearing them ask why as I ran away. I don't know what they were trying to do, and it kinda haunts me to think what their intentions were and what the outcome of me just running away did.
to be honest they were most likely pranking and they didn't care to continue for example I didn't want to sit next to any of my classmates when they were eating food because I hated all of them, one of the girls came outside and stayed there for many minutes asking why I didn't want to be with them thinking it was unfair for me to be away from them because she thought I felt bad about being alone my other class mates that I hated most likely were told by their parents to do it because they put NO effort to convince me, they just asked, I said no and couple of seconds of meaningless yammering later they left
tbh i’ve never been really bullied even tho i wasn’t a great looking child (i was in a really nice charter school for most of elem and sixth grade but even when i was in a public school for early elem and the rest of middle school) i j never experienced any of the stererotypical “kdrama like” bullying imo none of the popular kids ever went out of their way to call the ugly kid ugly, or the weird kid weird, they only ever care if you go directly in their way/talk shit about them/somehow get yourself involved with them even before i made friends, even when i sat on my backpack on the dirty concrete floor of my middle school just watching tiktok videos in the morning while everyone else talked in their group, i never got picked on idk j my experience tho 🤷🏽♀️
Same haha, i got everything needed except for an arrow saying: bully me! But nope, not even once, maybe it was because my class was full of hyperactives and if something didnt move it potentially didnt existed to them, i mean, you got there a depressed child with pressure and focus problems that is also a nerd, thats the biggest bully target you could get;) but nope, gotta say i kinda expected it to happen some day..
I had a guy try asking me out almost every day all through middle school. The dude kept it up for three years. When I finally said "sure" (because I did used to have a small crush on him), it was revealed less than a day later that it was a prank. Needless to say that had an effect on my self esteem that didn't really go away until I moved for college.
Keeping up a joke for three years is literally insane (•_•) Where the hell did he find all that time and determination?! I'm surprised he didn't regret it halfway through
I don't think I ever got hit by the dating prank, but back in 9th grade I got an apology note from someone that basically said "I'm sorry I bullied you back in 6th grade" and I was very confused cause I didn't remember hardly ever interacting with the person. But the reason was because my parents during 6th grade were having a custody battle and it put me in a very dark space, so dark I guess I never even noticed if this person did bully me. So I talked to them about it and they we're super apologetic but I gave them a lot of props for having the courage to apologize even though I never noticed.
"Every girl has crushes!" **stares tiredly in aroace** As to dating prank stories, this kid in my class once told me his friend who was sitting near him wanted my number, and his friend was like "No I don't!" and they went back and forth on that a couple of times, and then I just said "I don't care if he wants my number or not. And I don't even have a phone, so..." And then that was the end of that.
@@KaiUchiha15 Good to know that my kind are a myth and a legend rarely seen by man and that puny minds such as yours that dwell within only the most mundane spaces of life and close their eyes to anything but the ordinary have trouble comprehending our existence. I'll let you in on a secret: No one asked for your pitiful small-brained opinion, and no one gives a single solitary crap. Enjoy the dull, limited sort of life you choose to confine yourself to. Don't bother with things you don't understand and don't seem to want to.
My school used to play a game called “OREO” which was rock-paper-scissors but the loser has to ask out the winner’s choice. I was one of those people who got asked out and the dude asking was my crush. I literally SAW them playing it said yes which shocked him and his friends. Yep, the entire relationship was basically one-sided. Now, that I know I’m asexual, I realized the only reason I liked the dude was because he had an earring.
I remember that game. It was super annoying. Someone came up to me once and told me that he lost an oreo. At first I took it literally and thought he lost an actual oreo. Once I realized he was referring to the game I quickly declined. 🤣
This isn’t an asking out prank but when I was in high school, a girl came up to me in French class and asked, “do you like girls?”. Me being an 11 year old that had no idea about the existence of lesbians and thinking she meant if I prefer girls as friends over boys I said yes. The girl then said “So you’re a lesbian” and her whole group laughed at me. Really did a number on my insecurities because I thought that was bad and she was saying that not even boys would like me. Obvs I can’t show that or they would bring it up all the time. After that I realised that people were assholes in my high school, even some friends in my friend group. I would try to avoid high school through my orthodontist appointments as much as possible because I knew if I said something wrong or weird, they would remember it for the next week or so and I just didn’t like being constantly reminded of what I’ve said on a random Tuesday. So I’d either make dentist appointments on school days so I don’t have to go back for the rest of the day just so I don’t have to see certain people in my classes. I’d do this and just throw myself into my work and spend extra time in my art classes because I loved my teacher who taught me, she’s actually the one that inspired me to choose to do art for college. Sorry this is kinda long it kinda of turned into a vent, long story short is that I’ve definitely had that feeling of insecurity that people give you when they do the asking out prank or call you gay as an insult. It’s just so petty and weird.
The same thing happened to me expect when the girl asked if I was a lesbian I said yes even though I had no clue what that actually meant and then she thought it was cool cause she was also a lesbian and then we started dating for a little bit
Your story had the relatable aspect to it which as a kid you are naive to some things and feel as though you ended up in a trap, end up getting insulted or embarrassed over it and suffer from insecurity and low self-esteem for later situations and in attempts with making friends in the future. Not your fault that your life wasn’t as harsh or tragic like your peers who would of went through horrible stuff to end up doing those kinds of things and knowing more about harming others because it was done to them.
It's never happened to me because no one would approach me under any circumstances. Everyone at my school hates me for just existing, I never did anything wrong, so I don't have to worry if that happens because I'm sure it'll always be fake if it happens. Having no friends is great because then I get along with the staff and then everyone gives me that "teacher's pet" status when all I'm doing is getting along with the teachers because no one ever wants to hang out with me. They've backed me into a corner, and I don't care.
which schools do you people go to because if there ever was a person like me in there that school they would've attempted to burn it at least 48 times before a murder would happen sorry, murderS would happen
That sounds freaking awful. No one deserves to be hated for existing and constantly being made fun of. I hope you will stay strong i know its not easy. But remember if they break you they win so don't ever let them win.
That situation sounds scarily familliar. Having no friends, nobody your age to break up the monotony of a school day could lead to some serious mental health issues. You know that right? Please talk to someone about getting therapy because this mentality could lead to a variety of problems. Now, and later in life. You've done nothing to deserve this, and I'm sure there is someone out there who could be a friend to you. Look for that person, someone who sees your worth and makes your days better. People like that are hidden everywhere, you just need to look for them.
I bet people don't hate you, you just don't need validation like they do. Just focus on your goals and friends will come in those specific areas. You aren't missing out on much
I wasn't asked out as a prank, I had something far worse done to me. In middle school, it was well known I had a crush on one of my friends. Right before spring break, she asked me out, I said yes. Came back from spring break, heard from one of our shared friends that she did it out of pity and ended it, without letting me know, the next day which was the first day of spring break. I asked her and it was true. Suffice it to say, my friendship with that girl ended right then.
Not sure if this is related but I remember being in math class and was sitting across this girl that hated me. Like, seriously hated me and made sure everyone knew it. Naturally, I kinda got numb to it over time. We were doing work that required partners so the teacher started to pair us up. Sure enough he paired me with the girl that hated me, but he tried to be cheeky about it. Saying things like: "oh and who knows there might be something between you two~" or something like that, but basically was doing that "oh you two would be cute together" thing. The girl got frustrated saying things like "ew no! Never!" Of course, I was fed up with her that I nonchalantly said "yeah I rather jump off two bridges than date her" out loud. The whole class looked at me in shock. The teacher felt awkward and the girl literally gave me the 😧 I didn't really care and just worked on the assignment on my own
Ugh, I hate it when someone asks me out for laughs too! Since I have autism, it's kinda hard for me to understand whether it is a prank or not! That doesn't mean that I let that define me! Keep up the great work! I love this video so much! Never give up, dude! :D
I am also autistic and have some severe trust issues due to reasons that I won't get into because they were traumatic but when someone told me that they loved me, I was kinda suspisious and nervous so I just ran
One time this girl kept telling me that one of her friends (who at that time was really popular and considered pretty) had a crush on me, and this was supposed to be some sort of *MASSIVE ACHIEVEMENT* but I didn't care cause I have always been aromatic, so I said, "Tell her that I said No and that I don't feel the same way", but the bitch decided to tell all the girls that I felt the same way and I was crushing on her for a while, so they gather up and walk to me like a pride of lions to yell in my face "APRIL FOOLS!!!", and started laughing for the whole class to hear and do the same. The annoying part is their laughter was so loud no one could hear that I was saying I didn't care. Kids.
Back in 6th grade I had one of the most traumatizing experiences I've had related to relationships, a friend of mine "leaked" that I liked a girl for a while and one day we went to a skiing trip with the whole school and she said to me that she liked me back, it was an 1h long ride and she spent the whole ride leaning on me and being all kind to me and I was having a good time, but in the ride back when i went to sit next to her she told me that it was a joke and said if I really thought she would go out with a gross guy like me and the rest of the kids started laughing at me, i went and sit alone the whole ride back holding back tears so I wouldn't get laughed at even more and spent the rest of the year without hardly ever talking to any of the oter kids
kids suck honestly if it were up to me all teens should be dissipated and spend their years in an uncanny shadow realm to be left to their own materials to figure out how to survive until they turn 18
@@Studio4Eyes I can see what you try to say but i should have specified this hapenned a long long time ago and I don't think much about it, i've had a few relationships since then but nothing too serious, just once and didn't go very well but shit happens, if I can give you some advice back from my experience, even tho sometimes romantic relationships end with a sour taste that doesnt mean you need to aproach every single one of them with that cautious mentality, even if it does end bad I prefer to look at the bright side and think that if I've never even tried in the first place I wouldn't have expirienced some of the happiest moments of my life till now, and also if you go in with this mindset even tho it's gonna hurt in the end it'll only make you emotionally stronger. But that's just my personal experience anyway
bro where tf do y'all go to school? in my entire life have i never seen such cruelty from 8 year olds, holy shit man, atleast my pre school had nice kids man...
i think this happened to me just once in highschool. a girl named Gabriella from my class started flirting with me one time while me and my friends were at the school's library. when my friends went off to go find some books while i was looking up some info articles on the computer she was sitting next to me and asking if i was single, if i was looking for a girlfriend, if i had any interests in anyone, etc. now keep in mind Gabriella wasn't the prettiest girl in class but she didn't look bad either by any means and i personally thought she was an attractive young girl. and I guess that caught her off guard when she asked what i thought about the idea of going out with her and what i thought about her in general. when i told her "well if think you're a very attractive girl and if you're being serious, we could give it a shot." she looked shocked and surprised when i said that and she said "oh! i'm so sorry I was just joking!". I just kinda looked at her for a moment and just shook my head and chuckled before going back to what i was doing. I guess she picked up on my mood cuz she asked if i was upset and I said "yeah kinda." she asked if i actually meant what i said and i said "yeah, i did." and she apologized profusely saying she didn't know i actually felt that way about her and i just shrugged it off. it hurt that she did that but i think it ended up backfiring on her. maybe this was her way of trying to strike out against guys she felt didn't find her attractive? i dunno. but yeah to this day i'm confused as to why she did that. honestly had she not done that i would have gone out with her. it's not like we didn't know each other, we went to the same classes and interacted with each other many times so... =/
Geez, the whole "having a crush" thing was really annoying growing up. All I did as a kid was play, watch tv, and read books (not that I enjoyed the last one. School stuff). I never really cared about crushes, I can end up looking at a girl for a few seconds but I'll always end up doing my own thing for the rest of the day completely forgetting who caught my eye earlier. Then a family dinner with cousins, aunts, and uncles comes along where they would ask "Do you have a crush on someone?" Where I would confidently reply with "no", yet despite that my parents has to tell to everyone from every branching family member how I was weird for not having a crush on someone and everyone would laugh. As a kid, I can't do anything about that. I just sat there, trying to hold back tears because appearantly I'm not allowed to cry either
It's funny, cause I'm a Nick and the reverse happened to me in 6th grade. There was this... to put it nicely, heavier set girl in my class who basically hit her growth spurt like waaaaaaay too early and was taller than basically everyone (she was as tall as my teacher). One day someone said that I liked her or something along the lines of that, and to be fair to her in retrospect, she was pretty much dateable when I look back on it. I figure the girls who set her up were probably all jealous of her...adolescence, so to speak. So she comes up to me about like 2 weeks before our progression week ( a week where we go into 7th grade mode/ go into a "period" schedule for classes to get us ready for middle school) AND she kinda spills her heart out to me because she actually did sorta like me. Unfortunately at the time, I too was very conscious about religion being a factor in my love life ( because I knew her family was hard Catholic, IDK if she even knew I was nonreligious). I ended up declining because of the whole religious thing... and because stupid me was still too self-conscious about my size. She was left a little heartbroken for the remainder of the school year and basically had trust issues trying to readjust her social dynamic with whatever "friends" she had left. I don't wanna say it was out of pity, but I did end up befriending her for the last two weeks of school, after which I never saw her again until like junior year of high school as I had gone to another middle school on the opposite end of out small town. She ended up being like really cool, and when I look back at the whole situation, I feel rather awful for her being deceived and me being a vehicle for some stupid kid's twisted sense of humor. In high school, I found out she ended up hooking up with another boy and I was glad that things ended up working out for her because she didn't seem like she was in a good place when we had left off.
I always have had the technique of being able to inform people like this of their home address, wether that’s a threat or not is completely up to them.
I remember in High school on Valentine’s Day , I was hanging out with friends at lunch and some chick I never met placed a love note in front of me. She ran back to her table laughing with her friends. I read the note and it said they liked my shirt and would I be their valentine. So growing up constantly bullied by girls, I took this as mocking and ridicule. So I get up, walk to their table and toss the note back like an anime and said I don’t do Valentine’s Day. Walked back and sat with my friends. If they were genuine then I’m sorry if they were trying to bully me then eat it suckas!!
you're way more composed than I would've been I most likely would slap across the idiot who'd try to pull that on me and even if they wouldn't be pranking me that excuse would be the dumbest and most disgusting ever
This happened to me twice as well, 1st time was in 5th grade. I was ostracized for all of elementary school so I always sat by myself during recess. One day, one of the boys in my class came up to me and asked me, in front of the whole class, if I wanted to go steady with him. The entire class gathered around us and one of the girls gave me emotional trauma with this beauty: "You want to belong with us, right? Then you should say yes." They had never been that blatant about it before. I kept saying no, but they kept pushing me, until one girl just randomly shouted: "I heard her say okay!" - which I immediately denied saying but at that point no one listened to what I was saying anymore. From that day on, throughout the rest of elementary, almost every day that boy would tease me by constantly repeating: "You're still my girlfriend!" That was the only interaction we ever had, by the way. The 2nd time wasn't a prank, but a bet. It was shortly before I graduated high school. I dated this boy for 4 months until I found out. At least I managed for him to not win the bet, despite pushiness from him, but man did that break me. I felt ugly and undesirable. It wasn't until 4 years later when I met my now-husband that I managed to slowly rebuild my self-esteem. Kids can be cruel. It gets better once you have the right people around you, trust me.
I'm aroace, I don't care about those kind of relationships but once I was asked out as a joke in 7th grade. I only said yes to be nice and tbh I wasn't really thinking about actually dating this dude, I was kind of innocent and was only thinking more in the lines of it being cool to have a new friend to hang out with. He was with his buds and suggesting about inviting me to the movies or something of that nature. I didn't want to deny him and embarrass him in front his buds so I said sure and thought why not. If they just said it was a joke, I wouldn't have cared as much, may have been embarrassed and brush it off but they didn't stop there. After they all laughed at me, and the guy said he was just kidding. He said something which still haunts me and I'm 22 now. "Who would ever want to be with someone like you". I was trying to open up just to get punched in the heart with those words. That's what hurt me. That experience helped trigger my anxiety. The phrase has been proven wrong by the true friends and family I have that are there for me but sometimes those words come back. I have forgiven those guys, can't even remember their names or faces but I'll never forget what they did, it's left a scar. Even though this video is recommend to me so late, I appreciate this issue being mentioned and the words of wisdom and encouragement at the end.
I was the shy loner guy and sometimes girls would randomly tell me they loved me and I would just say "I know" because that's the cool thing to say 😎 right and continue to do my thing. Pretty sure it was some weird bullying tactic because they never spoke to me otherwise. But I'd rather think that I was just so attractive and keep it as an ego boost. I was desperately shy and lonely though, but I probably dodged a bullet by being so oblivious to their bullying.
Once, when I was in elementary school, a girl in my class approached me, then pointed at this guy who was following behind her, and she said, “Hey, he said he has a crush on you.” And I swear to the lord, this girl expressed the smuggest face in existence, as she waiting for my response, so it was apparent that she was untrustworthy. And I answered, “Okay…” and I gradually walked up to that guy, and said, “I don’t like, nor know who you are.” And sincerely, just left them outside the classroom, as they both turned to each other flabbergasted. Wow… I genuinely, enjoy when people attempt to do a prank for emotional distress, because…… I am not straight, so what the hell was that for? Was I supposed to be troubled, or give in to their behavior? NO! HAHAHAHA! Their actions are not within my concern.
I have gotten "asked out" so many more times than I can think of, and it really hurt. I'm a freshman now, first year of highschool, and I haven't been "asked out" yet, but the last times it's happened I just... Grew numb to it. And now I feel like I'm unlovable and I can't ever confess my feelings if I do develop them. It's rough being an individual who just wants to mind their own business. Also hey, I also always eat lunch in the library, then I read manga there, because my library is super cool and has manga. :)
I know how feel dude, it sucks but we just have to deal with it unfortunately. However most of these kids aren't even dating. You can't really say you're going on a date if your parents have to drive you there, that's a playdate.

freshman right here too!! really sucks for us loners. i eat lunch and draw in my art teachers classroom, shes real nice to me because i’m one of the few students who behave in her class, so she lets me eat lunch in there. power of being a good student!!
You shouldn’t have to feel that way, it confuses me how everyone here feels the same, yet in the world there seem to be way many more toxic people.

The only times I was ever asked out was either on a prank or a dare. It happened multiple times, across multiple schools. It got to the point where I started asking guys which it was if they asked me out or said they liked me - in retrospect, it feels a bit mean of me, but it was coming from a place of hurt. Not like I actually wanted to go out with anyone, but they'd played with my feelings and sheer desire for companionship like it was nothing more than a fun game, and it hurt. So I became prickly right back.
I wasn’t really asked out as a prank, but back before my friends started figuring themselves out, they relentlessly ‘encouraged’ that I find someone to date, someone to crush on. I honestly disliked most of the guys and some of the girls outside my friend group. When I got frustrated about romantic feelings, I turned towards the internet for answers. I am proudly AroAce and maybe, just maybe I’ll find someone who’s willing to be in a platonic relationship. However, some of my previous friends had discussed pulling the dating prank on someone else. I am honestly really glad I left that group of people when I got into high school.
You're obviously not the only one, there are plenty of people out there who you'll feel comfortable with. It might take a long time, it might be hard, but if you really want it you'll find someone someday.
Aroace peers are all over this video lol I'm happy to hear you left your old friend group. People who want to pressure you into doing something aren't really looking out for you

I got asked out by someone who later admitted to trying to mess with my feelings. I didn't even like her and I wasn't very popular so I said yes just to be nice. The look on her face when I didn't care that she broke up with me in front of her friends was priceless. I went right back to looking at something on youtube while she started getting angry with me. Those were some good times...
That is an amazing story. I love it when someone like that gets hit with a reality check

For the last 2 years at my primary school it was common for everyone at some point to come up and do the "I like you" prank luckily 5-6th grade me was smart enough to know they were messing with me, that shit really messed with me and ruined my self-esteem for years. One of the pranks ended up with me gaining 4 stalkers who would follow me when I'd walk home everyday and throw rocks at my animals.
I gotta love how the teachers handled it with and I quote them on this "boys will be boys"
Ah, teachers. We can always count on them, huh?
that's absolutely ridiculous i would just move schools at that point tbh
I feel like the "dating prank" is one of the most hurtful things someone can pull. At the same time, some people will push it away and not get hurt but those who do have issues coming back.
There’s definitely something f*cked up about the “dating prank”. Really leads up to trust issues.
@@Mia-yx5gf I will be completely honest
I physically can't relate because I've never liked anyone in my school
I only thought of the few normal class mates as normal, who weren't as terrible as most of my class mates who were friends with people on higher classes who were even worse
I once had those kids enter the room saying things that would make them look cool and then when they said something racist I was just done
after years of my voice being quiet I lashed out screaming on top of my lungs about how many racist idiots were in this school
the second I stopped and looked up they were gone

I was asked out casually as a joke, SEVERAL times. Despite the fact that I am hella sapphic and am also super picky about the men I am attracted to. But this ONE GUY.... He harassed me as a joke or sum, idk his motive. But this traumatized me and the harassment lasted about a week and a half. He did this in front of my entire Algebra class. It started as just a couple compliments, but he then continued addressing me and it got worse and worse. He literally tried to take a pic of my face one time. He asked me to be his gf multiple times. His friend even said "couldn't I make an exception" when I said I didn't like men. He even said "Kiss me! Kiss me!" while we were IN MATH CLASS. IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY.

I heavily relate to finding a spot where no one is commonly found, making it comfortable enough, then disassociating while listening to music. 😂 I did that all the time in high school. It was a lot better than trying to talk about my music interests to my Jazz elitist classmates. They bullied me all the time because I listened to metal. So naturally I asked the teacher if I could perform a song for the class one day, and played the bass line for Korn's "Shoots and Ladders." 🥰
My story was pretty simple, back in like 5th grade there was "the popular girl" who everyone seemed to like, but she was just kinda mean to everyone. So one day, she came up to me ("the weird kid"), and said she liked me and wanted to go out. So I just said "ha no" immediately, and the shock and confusion from her and her friends was priceless.

"Does bullying even count if it doesn't work?" Yes. I think yes. I was also a target of these childish fake date pranks in middle and high school. Though they tended to do the 'fake love letter' version. They'd leave a fake letter in my locker (of which I never used, goes to show how stupid these bullies were, and how little they know people like us), of a boy proclaiming to love me, and to meet up after school. One time, I saw my classmates giggling and loitering around my locker, waiting for me to go and spring a bullying attack on me. I noped my way out of that one. Unfortunately, they found many, many ways of tormenting me. Ignoring them never worked. Even to this day, as an adult, I'm still disrespected and harassed by my adult peers who like to target me.

A lot of people did the “this guy likes you” routine to me in junior high. My answer (when I was single) was always the same: “if he wants to date me, he can ask me himself.” And they never did. Not that it matters, since I would’ve said no anyways because I didn’t even know their names or anything about them.
Granted, at the time, I didn’t realize I was being made fun of, so I just thought all these boys were lovesick cowards who clearly didn’t deserve my attention since they couldn’t even respect me enough to ask me out directly. Not to mention, sometimes they would ask me this while I had a boyfriend already, which only lowered my opinion of them even further.

The dating prank was weird for me personally. There’s also the sister prank, the friend prank, where someone says “omg hi best friend” when I don’t even know the person. I was shown these two pranks in many ways. Of course there’s the classic “my friend likes you” but I also got some girl who just held my hand and told me she loved me which was weird, and some other girl insisting that we were already dating. I wasn’t hurt by these people trying to “date” or “befriend” me, but I did have the premptive assumption that people who I wasn’t already acquainted with showing affection to me were doing it as a ploy. I rejected everyone, genuine or not until I started dating my current bf, I was loyal before we even started dating.
Omg the best friend prank… I unfortunately fell for it when I was a kid and only realized it a few months later they weren’t my friends
Lmao when people done that to me i just start telling them their ugly af while having a look of disgust and they look suprised and have a laugh at out it later

I was constantly asked out by three boys in middle school. Every time I grew happy they would ridicule me that no one would ever want me. Needless to say, it bore significant impact on me.
I saw them again in Highschool and had the same classes with them. They wondered why I carried such a distance from them. I told them why in an honest and brutal way. They tried to apologize, but I wasn’t having it.
Those things they said no longer bare any weight. As I have moved on, and if anyone comments on my lack of a spouse. It doesn’t bother me at all.

I get these pranks so many times that I actually started writing down scenarios of what to say during these stupid encounters.
1. Ask what the friend looks like, and then scream and run away at the sight of them
2. Tell the person trying to prank you that you like them more, and then lead them on instead.
3. Tell the person that's trying to prank you that their friend told you personally that they're gay. LOOK SINCERE AND SAD. homophobia is common in bullies and they won't expect someone like you to lie about their friend like that.

Being asked out as a prank was something that I would experience frequently in middle school, as I was already severely bullied for being ugly and poor. It was usually guys who were telling me "my friend has a huge crush on you, he thinks you're a bombshell, he wants to date you" as they were laughing uncontrollably with their group, or a single boy who would tell me he was in love with me, taht I was pretty, blah blah blah.

In college, a girl genuinely asked me out with a note, and I thought it was another prank. Thankfully, I thought it over and realized that was actually unlikely given the circumstances.

Yes, I was asked out as a prank.
The first time was when some kids played "OREO" (the loser has to ask someone out). It was in the sixth grade. The kid, who probably was scared of rejection (or me saying yes, even), told me about the game before asking me out. So of course I said no.
The second time was in the middle of science class in the seventh grade when a girl went up to me and asked if I would like to go out with some kid named Luke. I said no, because I was already skeptical. Then for some reason the group of kids persisted and Luke asked me out face-to-face (with the others watching). I said no again because I still thought it was a prank.
He might not have been pranking me. I don't think that's the case. He was rather sociable, and I was a scraggly-haired kid autistic girl who wore T-shirts with bad puns and who used primarily memes to interact with people. I was painfully awkward.
I was a victim of OREO twice, too, both in 7th grade. First time it was just some dude that I hadn't spoken to and was incredibly popular, but I was so socially anxious at that point I literally just walked away without a word and hid in the girls bathroom. He didn't share any classes with me even. His friend group harassed me for abt a month after.
Second time was a weird kid like me. I said yes bc I was really into the idea of dating at the time, but we only "dated" (didn't even see each other at all during that time, btw) for a week before he sent me a VERY long and elaborated letter that went something like: "My love, I feel you have found someone else who sparks the flame of passion within you; I pray he keeps your heart warm where I could not" (i had spoken to another guy briefly and apparently in his eyes that was cheating)
Anyway the dating prank is The Worst Prank you can get pulled on you, at least socially. The damage is so deep and so lasting... Kids are cruel.
As a person in school, I can assure you everything has gotten so much worse.
I mean this happened to multiple of my friends.
One of the "victims" was even a slightly popular kid.
It's never bullying until one of the paying students is effected
One time I got asked out in high school. This girl walked up to me, handed me a piece of paper, and said “hey… here are my socials and my phone number. we should ‘talk’ sometime.”
Me, being me, told her “oh sorry, I’m not going to use that.”
Then the period ended and the bell rang, and she ran out crying. I realized a while later she was actually trying to ask me out… still feel pretty bad about that one
i would cry too
🪦🪦🪦
Damn
ouch
Something tells me I would do the same, I am horrible on picking up shit usually

In elementary school, there was this girl that I disliked. She would tap my shoulder and say it was her friend that did it. One day, she told me that a guy in our class had a crush on me. I remember asking the guy if this was true, not that I cared if he liked me or not. I wanted to know if the girl was telling the truth. I think I asked something like _Do u like me?_ he said something like _Yeah, like friends._
Several years later, the guy confessed and asked me on a date (I didn't go). I still don't know if the girl was telling the truth or it was all just a coincidence.

It’s actually a nice surprise to hear others see through the attempts of lesser people bothering or trying to toy with innocent peoples minds, can’t relate to being asked out as a joke…or in general across my entire life ;-; but pity aside I always had to deal with irritating crap and mostly reflected with an edgy egotistical loner persona cuz it’s all I could think of, the point I’m getting at is hoping others who suffer at the hands of messy people know to be firm in who they are and own it you can’t lose if you make it clear you don’t care about them or something along those lines idk, great vid as usual shgurr
I've been asked out as a prank. I never had the girl come up to me to say a popular boy has a crush on me, but I have had boys come up to me being like "Do you wanna be my girl friend???" or "Wanna go to homecoming with me???" not because they actually wanted to but because it was "funny to ask the weird girl out and see her reaction" It was clear on their intentions because either they would ignore everything I had to say or their friends would be giggling in the background. Let's just say these interactions gave me great insecurities
Not all is weird just people who mind there own business
Omg samee, I was 14 at the time and very insecure to begin with, and it left so many scars.... I'm glad that I wasnt the only one
Don't mind them, they just want to see you be insecure and bully you, ignore them, and go on with your day.
off topic but i got a burger king ad while waiting to watch this
This happened to me multiple times in elementary and middle school, I kind of thought I was the only one. A girl also tried to play the “we’re suddenly best friends even though you barely know me” prank on me, but I didn’t fall for it because I had no interest in being friends with her.
Don’t you love it when someone you hate tries to be your friend without stopping their mean actions or even apologizing for them? Or when you’re really small, and someone asks a favor of you in exchange for “being your best friend”. Thank you, I would hate that, now leave me alone I’m thinking about crows.
Dude I have this experience atleast 5 times every month. A girl, and it’s always girls, comes up to me trying to be “a friend” and immediately try to get something out of me. Guys sometimes does this but they give up easily,
The suddenly best friends thing is always crazy, cuz you can see it from a mile away.
@@InYourFloorboards12345crows do be cool
In my school there was a trend among the students. They would ask out the unpopular kids, like loners, weirdos, shy, nerds, etc... And then they would "confess" and if they felt the slightest amount of embarrassment or hope and reacted positively, then their friends would come out and laugh at the guys.
Some would even pay to the confirmed crushes of said students to do the prank just to make it more painful. I was never affected since I'm both insecure and dense as a brick, but my best friend was targeted once, not a good memory I must say.
why do I continue reading these, it's like an all you can eat buffet but for anger
I don't go through those kinds of things but that only makes it worse because I think of the worst possible feeling which makes my heart feel heavy
the fact that even my classmates aren't doing this says a lot... or maybe they never got the idea because their brain space was already occupied by all the things they'd do that would piss me off
I still don't know why adults think it's because "they're kids"
I'm almost the same age and look at me, I'm not a maniac like them I'm a psychopath... but only in my imagination... because of people like them

I feel like I have the similar situation happen to me in my 1st year of high-school. It was druing snack time, I was drawing in the classroom and two guys come to the classroom one is sitting next to me the other was holding his guitar. The guy started playing a love song feels like a confession to a girl but he went to my direction and goes near to the guy who sit next to me and just jokingly confess to the guys. They laugh, my classmates laugh to one of my classmates ask me in a joking manner (from what I could remember cause not sure) " how you feel? Feeling g heartbroken?(again I'm not sure she said that but it's what I interpreted) I was confused and just laugh saying "hah bitch I got no feeling". Tbh expect them to pull a prank on me the moment the other was sitting next to me. weird experince.
I didn’t really… speak… when I was younger- this lead to a lot of bullying for me. People would do anything they could to get me to speak. One of the reasons for this is that I had an unusually high pitched voice and they found this really funny.
They would often make horrible inappropriate jokes directed at me or do those “fake asking out” pranks because they knew I wouldn’t respond (I would literally just shut down from the stress of it). They would talk about me right in front of me like I wasn’t there because they knew I wouldn’t say anything. Every time I answered the register they would laugh and imitate my voice, making me even more reluctant to speak.
In the end it was pretty bad, with people putting there arms around me to force me to take pictures with them or following me home from school throwing stones at me.
Others around me telling me to “ignore them and they will get board”… that advice was so damaging to me, when I actually needed them to step in and do something about it.
Lucky my mum was awesome and did everything in her power to fight the school. In the end, when the school were doing nothing els and I was school refusing regularly, she listened to me and what I needed, she taught me from home on the days I couldn’t go in from autistic burn out or anxiety and in the end she needed up taking my school to court.
Now I have finally finished secondary school and I’m starting college in September. Even though it was hell (for so many reasons) it’s over now and I’m doing alot better and I can begin to heal from that.

Bruh I know other kid can be harsh but THESE KID ARE THE WORST
God some people just love to belittle people so much don’t they? I mean I was pretty bad in elementary school but I wouldn’t make fun of people because they sounded funny or were smaller than me. Mostly it was just me not being able to deal with my autism at such a young age, but I made up for it by late elementary school.

You know, there's probably a very high chance that girl repressed that date prank thing for years, moving on like nothing ever happened. Then she unsuspectingly tapped on this video, and was suddenly reminded of the time she tried to pull a date prank on a girl and then blew up in her face, bringing back years of cringe and is now trying to cope with the fact she did something so cringy by typing out a comment about how said girl probably repressed this memory for a long time only to tap on this video and be hit with a wave of cringe and is now trying to cope by making a comment about how that girl repressed the memory of trying to pull a date prank on a girl but it backfired in her face and now she's writing a comment about how that girl is never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and dessert you, never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.

I'm "The gay kid" in my school. Random boys would walk up to me all the time and say "HE LIKES YOU!" followed by the person in question chasing after them in anger. It happens so often that I just don't care anymore.
yes it happened to me three times
first time: the girl said she had a crush on me and listed some similarities between us like how we both have brown eyes...my eyes are blue (primary school)
second time: i was walking up some stairs when someone called out to me and said her friend liked me while her friend sat there looking confused so i responded no she doesnt and walked off (year 7/8 highschool)
third time: 2 girls were walking the same way as me after school and she said her friend had a crush on me and asked if id date her, id never talked to either of them before so i said no when she asked why not i said i dont even know them whcih they took as an invite to follow me for 5 minutes saying i was insulting her by saying her personality is shit (year 9 highschool)
there was one incident where my friend told a girl i had a crush on her which got a response of "oh my god" and "ew" from her friend group while she stood there silently...he is no longer a friend of mine (primary school)
in a different yet similar topic i have talked to two women ive had crushes on about crushes and they've both said i didn't seem like the type to have crushes
if i had a nickel for every time a crush of mine told me i didn't seem like the type to have crushes id have 2 nickels which isnt a lot but its weird that it happened twice
the first one already pissed me off because she'd be talking about physical similarities and nothing else
I really think I have genuine anger issues
that just sounds depressing...
I hope those memories will sink to the bottom of the ocean

This video is really relatable. I'm the kind of person who cares more about my hobbies than crushing people, and I'm also a loner. When I was in 7th grade a girl said someone likes me multiple times, she does it with a different person each time. I didn't have a crush on any of those guys so I just told the truth. What I was thinking is why would there be so many guys liking me, it feels kinda weird.
Once, I also had a crush on a guy who really loves to pull the some kind of "crushing" type of bullying to people. I usually don't care about it but he really does an inappropriate amount of that thing that my empathy turns on. I kinda hate having a crush on him, so I just remember about it to get over him.
2:28 for those who are curious, the flag onscreen is the demisexual flag. Demisexuality is not being sexually attracted by people's physical characteristics, their looks, voice, smell, etc Demisexuals feel attraction after they get to know someone's personality and form a emotional bond.
Thank you for the information
You know that’s just most people, right? It’s not like straight people see someone they think is pretty and instantly want to do the dirty with them
@@KaiUchiha15 it can be impossible to feel sexual attraction towards anyone unless there is a pre-existing bond for demisexuals. Most people can
@@kingdmind I can't feel attracted to someone unless I have a pre-existing bond, but I still wouldn't say that it's impossible for me to feel sexual attraction to say, a stranger on the streets. Where exactly would you draw the line then between demisexuality and not? I have never quite understood that well so any clarification would be highly appreciated!
@@unclear6055 Hey, aspec here, not necessarily demi- I am just ace myself, but I have a few demi friends and want to try and explain their experiences. Demisexuality is different for everyone, but it is definitely not the same as just having basic standards and not wanting to raw-dog someone immediately.
Demis physically *cannot* experience attraction to someone until a deep bond is formed between two people. People who aren't demisexual can. There is a difference between the two. Allos (people who experience average sexual attraction) could see someone in passing on the street, and think, hey, that person was hot, but not act on it. That's basic self control. Demis could see someone, not feel any attraction to them physically, but become friends, and then only begin to feel sexual attraction after a certain amount of time has passed since that platonic bond has formed.
The time varies, as demisexuality is a spectrum like most sexualities. It could take months, years, or in some cases even decades for that bridge to be crossed. Another pointer, is obviously that attraction isn't guaranteed from the bond either, since, say a straight guy isn't attracted to every single girl on the planet, a demisexual person won't be attracted to every person they form a close bond with.
I hope I explained it somewhat well? Sorry about the text wall, it's a very complicated thing and it kind of hurts seeing people pass it off as "normal" when there's a distinction, talking from experience as someone on the asexual spectrum.
Those dating pranks worked on me in middle/high school. To the point that I resigned to the thought that I'll die alone as the local crazy cat lady. Well, joke's on them, I'm getting married in 3 months!

I wasn't asked out as a prank, I got turned down so someone else could continue their "asking out X" prank. The dude found out who his friend wanted to ask to a dance and used this information to ask this poor girl out at every opportunity for the entire week leading up to the dance. She ended up having a breakdown in the bathroom during it because of him since he still didn't stop after the dance started and wouldn't leave her alone. I ended up asking him to the dance the day before it (without knowing about the prank) and he said he'd think about it before saying no around an hour later. Turns out, he was actually kinda into me but decided pranking my friend was a better use of his time. Screw you Jake

The fact that this “dating prank” thing is actually how it started for me is kinda funny. It was my 7th grade dance and someone said I should dance with this girl who I kinda liked and now here we are.
I was stalked by a pimple faced guy who wanted me to be his girlfriend even though he already had a girlfriend, he would walk me to class and ask me to be his girlfriend and sometimes whenever I would be late to class he would alternate times to where if I was late he would show up.
He also liked the pop band Gorrilaz and was compelled to draw noodle (Japanese girl from the band) as a tribute to me and made her fat because he liked my appearance (I was dealing with self image issues so having him draw that monstrosity didn't help as much.)
The rest of the class made us laughing stocks since one guy pretended to have us married even though that guy stated that we're "just friends."
It got so bad that I eventually told both the guidance counselor and the school specialist and after a conversation with a hint of a scary glare later the guidance counselor and the school specialist sat him down, explained everything and from then on he got his schedule changed and I never saw him again.

I was told as a prank during my middle school years by some kids that I used to hang out on my street with that a girl was obsessed with me and that she finally was brave enough to ask me for a lip kiss.
Me, being a naive autistic child, was very suspicious about all this, there were so many plot holes in their story, but I thought that “what if they are telling the truth?” “What if I she genuinely loved me?” “This is my first chance at a proper kiss and I could make something out of it.”
So despite all the red flags, I decided to trust them and close my eyes as they told me to, and lean to have my first proper kiss. But my lips didn’t meat the girls lips. Instead my lips met the licks of a white apartment mutt.
Luckily what normally would have shot deep in my self image was instead rage at the fact that they pulled this prank on me and a bit of anger directed at myself for going into something despite noticing serious red flags. My self image escaped intact and this event just died down and I let go of it.
Even tho your self image might not have shattered, those people probably got everything they wanted and probably told everyone how you were absolutely crushed.

There was a dating prank attempt on me once in high school and I sniffed that shit out so fast. Red flags were 1) I've never seen them before in my life. I just happened to be passing by them on the way to my lunch table. 2) The interested party was not the one asking me out. 3) My self-esteem was so low, I didn't believe that anyone was romantically interested in me anyways. Jokes on them, I already hate myself more than they hated me.
Damn bro i hope you healing from that.
Simular experience, middle school a group of girls were apparently daring each other to ask out guys, one girl asked me and the first thing I did was glance back to see the girls and asked her "your friends dared you to ask me, didn't they?"

@@thegreeninator1985 ohhh the embarrassment she must’ve felt, lmao

I feel like I have all the qualities to make me a target of bullying, yet I experience none. People at my middle school and high school just didn't care, I slide by easily and attract very little attention. On the rare occasion people do take notice, it's to compliment a shirt I'm wearing. Despite all of this, there was one time where, like, two girls ran up to me while I was walking out of school. I say "like" because I never made eye contact with them, I focused on walking, so I don't truthfully know who or how many there were. One randomly asked something along the lines of "do you like me?" or "wanna date." I was completely confused so I said no and speed up, only hearing them ask why as I ran away. I don't know what they were trying to do, and it kinda haunts me to think what their intentions were and what the outcome of me just running away did.
to be honest they were most likely pranking and they didn't care to continue
for example I didn't want to sit next to any of my classmates when they were eating food because I hated all of them, one of the girls came outside and stayed there for many minutes asking why I didn't want to be with them thinking it was unfair for me to be away from them because she thought I felt bad about being alone
my other class mates that I hated most likely were told by their parents to do it because they put NO effort to convince me, they just asked, I said no and couple of seconds of meaningless yammering later they left
tbh i’ve never been really bullied even tho i wasn’t a great looking child (i was in a really nice charter school for most of elem and sixth grade but even when i was in a public school for early elem and the rest of middle school) i j never experienced any of the stererotypical “kdrama like” bullying
imo none of the popular kids ever went out of their way to call the ugly kid ugly, or the weird kid weird, they only ever care if you go directly in their way/talk shit about them/somehow get yourself involved with them
even before i made friends, even when i sat on my backpack on the dirty concrete floor of my middle school just watching tiktok videos in the morning while everyone else talked in their group, i never got picked on
idk j my experience tho 🤷🏽♀️
Same haha, i got everything needed except for an arrow saying: bully me! But nope, not even once, maybe it was because my class was full of hyperactives and if something didnt move it potentially didnt existed to them, i mean, you got there a depressed child with pressure and focus problems that is also a nerd, thats the biggest bully target you could get;) but nope, gotta say i kinda expected it to happen some day..
I had a guy try asking me out almost every day all through middle school. The dude kept it up for three years. When I finally said "sure" (because I did used to have a small crush on him), it was revealed less than a day later that it was a prank.
Needless to say that had an effect on my self esteem that didn't really go away until I moved for college.
Keeping up a joke for three years is literally insane (•_•) Where the hell did he find all that time and determination?! I'm surprised he didn't regret it halfway through
I think he also had at least one or two friends in on it as well. He was a jock too, I wouldn't be surprised if more people were at least aware of it.
These two girls always used to say random people in our class had a crush on me and i would just ignore them.
I don't think I ever got hit by the dating prank, but back in 9th grade I got an apology note from someone that basically said "I'm sorry I bullied you back in 6th grade" and I was very confused cause I didn't remember hardly ever interacting with the person. But the reason was because my parents during 6th grade were having a custody battle and it put me in a very dark space, so dark I guess I never even noticed if this person did bully me. So I talked to them about it and they we're super apologetic but I gave them a lot of props for having the courage to apologize even though I never noticed.

As to dating prank stories, this kid in my class once told me his friend who was sitting near him wanted my number, and his friend was like "No I don't!" and they went back and forth on that a couple of times, and then I just said "I don't care if he wants my number or not. And I don't even have a phone, so..."

I swear some people are blinded by their delusions not everyone has a crush atleast for now
My school used to play a game called “OREO” which was rock-paper-scissors but the loser has to ask out the winner’s choice. I was one of those people who got asked out and the dude asking was my crush. I literally SAW them playing it said yes which shocked him and his friends. Yep, the entire relationship was basically one-sided. Now, that I know I’m asexual, I realized the only reason I liked the dude was because he had an earring.
My school had the same thing!
I remember that game. It was super annoying. Someone came up to me once and told me that he lost an oreo. At first I took it literally and thought he lost an actual oreo. Once I realized he was referring to the game I quickly declined. 🤣
That’s fair, earrings are nice
I remember this game, I was always asked out but since I knew the game I always said no.
This isn’t an asking out prank but when I was in high school, a girl came up to me in French class and asked, “do you like girls?”. Me being an 11 year old that had no idea about the existence of lesbians and thinking she meant if I prefer girls as friends over boys I said yes. The girl then said “So you’re a lesbian” and her whole group laughed at me. Really did a number on my insecurities because I thought that was bad and she was saying that not even boys would like me. Obvs I can’t show that or they would bring it up all the time.
After that I realised that people were assholes in my high school, even some friends in my friend group. I would try to avoid high school through my orthodontist appointments as much as possible because I knew if I said something wrong or weird, they would remember it for the next week or so and I just didn’t like being constantly reminded of what I’ve said on a random Tuesday. So I’d either make dentist appointments on school days so I don’t have to go back for the rest of the day just so I don’t have to see certain people in my classes.
I’d do this and just throw myself into my work and spend extra time in my art classes because I loved my teacher who taught me, she’s actually the one that inspired me to choose to do art for college.
Sorry this is kinda long it kinda of turned into a vent, long story short is that I’ve definitely had that feeling of insecurity that people give you when they do the asking out prank or call you gay as an insult. It’s just so petty and weird.
The same thing happened to me expect when the girl asked if I was a lesbian I said yes even though I had no clue what that actually meant and then she thought it was cool cause she was also a lesbian and then we started dating for a little bit

Your story had the relatable aspect to it which as a kid you are naive to some things and feel as though you ended up in a trap, end up getting insulted or embarrassed over it and suffer from insecurity and low self-esteem for later situations and in attempts with making friends in the future.
Not your fault that your life wasn’t as harsh or tragic like your peers who would of went through horrible stuff to end up doing those kinds of things and knowing more about harming others because it was done to them.
It's never happened to me because no one would approach me under any circumstances. Everyone at my school hates me for just existing, I never did anything wrong, so I don't have to worry if that happens because I'm sure it'll always be fake if it happens. Having no friends is great because then I get along with the staff and then everyone gives me that "teacher's pet" status when all I'm doing is getting along with the teachers because no one ever wants to hang out with me. They've backed me into a corner, and I don't care.
which schools do you people go to
because if there ever was a person like me in there that school they would've attempted to burn it at least 48 times before a murder would happen
sorry, murderS would happen
That sounds freaking awful. No one deserves to be hated for existing and constantly being made fun of. I hope you will stay strong i know its not easy. But remember if they break you they win so don't ever let them win.
That situation sounds scarily familliar. Having no friends, nobody your age to break up the monotony of a school day could lead to some serious mental health issues. You know that right? Please talk to someone about getting therapy because this mentality could lead to a variety of problems. Now, and later in life.
You've done nothing to deserve this, and I'm sure there is someone out there who could be a friend to you. Look for that person, someone who sees your worth and makes your days better. People like that are hidden everywhere, you just need to look for them.
I relate with this.
I bet people don't hate you, you just don't need validation like they do. Just focus on your goals and friends will come in those specific areas. You aren't missing out on much

I wasn't asked out as a prank, I had something far worse done to me. In middle school, it was well known I had a crush on one of my friends. Right before spring break, she asked me out, I said yes. Came back from spring break, heard from one of our shared friends that she did it out of pity and ended it, without letting me know, the next day which was the first day of spring break. I asked her and it was true. Suffice it to say, my friendship with that girl ended right then.
Damn dude, that really sucks. Hope you're doing better!
Not sure if this is related but I remember being in math class and was sitting across this girl that hated me. Like, seriously hated me and made sure everyone knew it. Naturally, I kinda got numb to it over time. We were doing work that required partners so the teacher started to pair us up. Sure enough he paired me with the girl that hated me, but he tried to be cheeky about it.
Saying things like: "oh and who knows there might be something between you two~" or something like that, but basically was doing that "oh you two would be cute together" thing. The girl got frustrated saying things like "ew no! Never!"
Of course, I was fed up with her that I nonchalantly said "yeah I rather jump off two bridges than date her" out loud. The whole class looked at me in shock. The teacher felt awkward and the girl literally gave me the 😧
I didn't really care and just worked on the assignment on my own

I was so invisible that I didn't even get bullied or became the target of these kind of pranks. I don't know if I should be happy or not about it, lol
Ugh, I hate it when someone asks me out for laughs too! Since I have autism, it's kinda hard for me to understand whether it is a prank or not! That doesn't mean that I let that define me! Keep up the great work! I love this video so much! Never give up, dude! :D
Ahhhh same 😭
I am also autistic and have some severe trust issues due to reasons that I won't get into because they were traumatic but when someone told me that they loved me, I was kinda suspisious and nervous so I just ran
One time this girl kept telling me that one of her friends (who at that time was really popular and considered pretty) had a crush on me, and this was supposed to be some sort of *MASSIVE ACHIEVEMENT* but I didn't care cause I have always been aromatic, so I said, "Tell her that I said No and that I don't feel the same way", but the bitch decided to tell all the girls that I felt the same way and I was crushing on her for a while, so they gather up and walk to me like a pride of lions to yell in my face "APRIL FOOLS!!!", and started laughing for the whole class to hear and do the same. The annoying part is their laughter was so loud no one could hear that I was saying I didn't care. Kids.
Back in 6th grade I had one of the most traumatizing experiences I've had related to relationships, a friend of mine "leaked" that I liked a girl for a while and one day we went to a skiing trip with the whole school and she said to me that she liked me back, it was an 1h long ride and she spent the whole ride leaning on me and being all kind to me and I was having a good time, but in the ride back when i went to sit next to her she told me that it was a joke and said if I really thought she would go out with a gross guy like me and the rest of the kids started laughing at me, i went and sit alone the whole ride back holding back tears so I wouldn't get laughed at even more and spent the rest of the year without hardly ever talking to any of the oter kids
kids suck honestly if it were up to me all teens should be dissipated and spend their years in an uncanny shadow realm to be left to their own materials to figure out how to survive until they turn 18
@@Studio4Eyes I can see what you try to say but i should have specified this hapenned a long long time ago and I don't think much about it, i've had a few relationships since then but nothing too serious, just once and didn't go very well but shit happens, if I can give you some advice back from my experience, even tho sometimes romantic relationships end with a sour taste that doesnt mean you need to aproach every single one of them with that cautious mentality, even if it does end bad I prefer to look at the bright side and think that if I've never even tried in the first place I wouldn't have expirienced some of the happiest moments of my life till now, and also if you go in with this mindset even tho it's gonna hurt in the end it'll only make you emotionally stronger.
But that's just my personal experience anyway
bro where tf do y'all go to school? in my entire life have i never seen such cruelty from 8 year olds, holy shit man, atleast my pre school had nice kids man...
I’m so sorry that happened to you,you have my condolences
@@dashsmash2665 fax I grew up in a shit area and kids there were nicer then these mfs
i think this happened to me just once in highschool. a girl named Gabriella from my class started flirting with me one time while me and my friends were at the school's library. when my friends went off to go find some books while i was looking up some info articles on the computer she was sitting next to me and asking if i was single, if i was looking for a girlfriend, if i had any interests in anyone, etc. now keep in mind Gabriella wasn't the prettiest girl in class but she didn't look bad either by any means and i personally thought she was an attractive young girl. and I guess that caught her off guard when she asked what i thought about the idea of going out with her and what i thought about her in general. when i told her "well if think you're a very attractive girl and if you're being serious, we could give it a shot." she looked shocked and surprised when i said that and she said "oh! i'm so sorry I was just joking!". I just kinda looked at her for a moment and just shook my head and chuckled before going back to what i was doing. I guess she picked up on my mood cuz she asked if i was upset and I said "yeah kinda." she asked if i actually meant what i said and i said "yeah, i did." and she apologized profusely saying she didn't know i actually felt that way about her and i just shrugged it off. it hurt that she did that but i think it ended up backfiring on her. maybe this was her way of trying to strike out against guys she felt didn't find her attractive? i dunno. but yeah to this day i'm confused as to why she did that. honestly had she not done that i would have gone out with her. it's not like we didn't know each other, we went to the same classes and interacted with each other many times so... =/
Geez, the whole "having a crush" thing was really annoying growing up. All I did as a kid was play, watch tv, and read books (not that I enjoyed the last one. School stuff). I never really cared about crushes, I can end up looking at a girl for a few seconds but I'll always end up doing my own thing for the rest of the day completely forgetting who caught my eye earlier. Then a family dinner with cousins, aunts, and uncles comes along where they would ask "Do you have a crush on someone?" Where I would confidently reply with "no", yet despite that my parents has to tell to everyone from every branching family member how I was weird for not having a crush on someone and everyone would laugh. As a kid, I can't do anything about that. I just sat there, trying to hold back tears because appearantly I'm not allowed to cry either
It do be like that 🤣
It's funny, cause I'm a Nick and the reverse happened to me in 6th grade. There was this... to put it nicely, heavier set girl in my class who basically hit her growth spurt like waaaaaaay too early and was taller than basically everyone (she was as tall as my teacher). One day someone said that I liked her or something along the lines of that, and to be fair to her in retrospect, she was pretty much dateable when I look back on it. I figure the girls who set her up were probably all jealous of her...adolescence, so to speak. So she comes up to me about like 2 weeks before our progression week ( a week where we go into 7th grade mode/ go into a "period" schedule for classes to get us ready for middle school) AND she kinda spills her heart out to me because she actually did sorta like me. Unfortunately at the time, I too was very conscious about religion being a factor in my love life ( because I knew her family was hard Catholic, IDK if she even knew I was nonreligious). I ended up declining because of the whole religious thing... and because stupid me was still too self-conscious about my size.
She was left a little heartbroken for the remainder of the school year and basically had trust issues trying to readjust her social dynamic with whatever "friends" she had left. I don't wanna say it was out of pity, but I did end up befriending her for the last two weeks of school, after which I never saw her again until like junior year of high school as I had gone to another middle school on the opposite end of out small town. She ended up being like really cool, and when I look back at the whole situation, I feel rather awful for her being deceived and me being a vehicle for some stupid kid's twisted sense of humor. In high school, I found out she ended up hooking up with another boy and I was glad that things ended up working out for her because she didn't seem like she was in a good place when we had left off.

@Don't Read My Profile Photo Then stop posting that and let the real comments pour in. ✋ 🛑
I always have had the technique of being able to inform people like this of their home address, wether that’s a threat or not is completely up to them.
How do you know their address 🤔?
I remember in High school on Valentine’s Day , I was hanging out with friends at lunch and some chick I never met placed a love note in front of me. She ran back to her table laughing with her friends. I read the note and it said they liked my shirt and would I be their valentine. So growing up constantly bullied by girls, I took this as mocking and ridicule. So I get up, walk to their table and toss the note back like an anime and said I don’t do Valentine’s Day. Walked back and sat with my friends. If they were genuine then I’m sorry if they were trying to bully me then eat it suckas!!
you're way more composed than I would've been
I most likely would slap across the idiot who'd try to pull that on me
and even if they wouldn't be pranking me that excuse would be the dumbest and most disgusting ever

This happened to me twice as well, 1st time was in 5th grade. I was ostracized for all of elementary school so I always sat by myself during recess. One day, one of the boys in my class came up to me and asked me, in front of the whole class, if I wanted to go steady with him. The entire class gathered around us and one of the girls gave me emotional trauma with this beauty: "You want to belong with us, right? Then you should say yes." They had never been that blatant about it before. I kept saying no, but they kept pushing me, until one girl just randomly shouted: "I heard her say okay!" - which I immediately denied saying but at that point no one listened to what I was saying anymore. From that day on, throughout the rest of elementary, almost every day that boy would tease me by constantly repeating: "You're still my girlfriend!" That was the only interaction we ever had, by the way.
The 2nd time wasn't a prank, but a bet. It was shortly before I graduated high school. I dated this boy for 4 months until I found out. At least I managed for him to not win the bet, despite pushiness from him, but man did that break me. I felt ugly and undesirable. It wasn't until 4 years later when I met my now-husband that I managed to slowly rebuild my self-esteem.
Kids can be cruel. It gets better once you have the right people around you, trust me.
I'm aroace, I don't care about those kind of relationships but once I was asked out as a joke in 7th grade. I only said yes to be nice and tbh I wasn't really thinking about actually dating this dude, I was kind of innocent and was only thinking more in the lines of it being cool to have a new friend to hang out with. He was with his buds and suggesting about inviting me to the movies or something of that nature. I didn't want to deny him and embarrass him in front his buds so I said sure and thought why not. If they just said it was a joke, I wouldn't have cared as much, may have been embarrassed and brush it off but they didn't stop there. After they all laughed at me, and the guy said he was just kidding. He said something which still haunts me and I'm 22 now. "Who would ever want to be with someone like you". I was trying to open up just to get punched in the heart with those words. That's what hurt me. That experience helped trigger my anxiety. The phrase has been proven wrong by the true friends and family I have that are there for me but sometimes those words come back. I have forgiven those guys, can't even remember their names or faces but I'll never forget what they did, it's left a scar. Even though this video is recommend to me so late, I appreciate this issue being mentioned and the words of wisdom and encouragement at the end.

That’s messed up dude
that dumb f- well the thing about this is, if it stays with you it could also stay with them and they’ll regret it for their life
I was the shy loner guy and sometimes girls would randomly tell me they loved me and I would just say "I know" because that's the cool thing to say 😎 right and continue to do my thing. Pretty sure it was some weird bullying tactic because they never spoke to me otherwise. But I'd rather think that I was just so attractive and keep it as an ego boost. I was desperately shy and lonely though, but I probably dodged a bullet by being so oblivious to their bullying.
Once, when I was in elementary school, a girl in my class approached me, then pointed at this guy who was following behind her, and she said, “Hey, he said he has a crush on you.” And I swear to the lord, this girl expressed the smuggest face in existence, as she waiting for my response, so it was apparent that she was untrustworthy.
And I answered, “Okay…” and I gradually walked up to that guy, and said, “I don’t like, nor know who you are.” And sincerely, just left them outside the classroom, as they both turned to each other flabbergasted.
Wow… I genuinely, enjoy when people attempt to do a prank for emotional distress, because…… I am not straight, so what the hell was that for? Was I supposed to be troubled, or give in to their behavior?
NO! HAHAHAHA! Their actions are not within my concern.
I have gotten "asked out" so many more times than I can think of, and it really hurt. I'm a freshman now, first year of highschool, and I haven't been "asked out" yet, but the last times it's happened I just... Grew numb to it. And now I feel like I'm unlovable and I can't ever confess my feelings if I do develop them. It's rough being an individual who just wants to mind their own business. Also hey, I also always eat lunch in the library, then I read manga there, because my library is super cool and has manga. :)
I know how feel dude, it sucks but we just have to deal with it unfortunately. However most of these kids aren't even dating. You can't really say you're going on a date if your parents have to drive you there, that's a playdate. It's all bullshit, and it doesn't really matter beyond getting your diploma so just hang in there
freshman right here too!! really sucks for us loners. i eat lunch and draw in my art teachers classroom, shes real nice to me because i’m one of the few students who behave in her class, so she lets me eat lunch in there. power of being a good student!!
@@TheOnlyHollywood1 HAHA! play date, okay that’s a good one i might use that
People who don't like manga (l:)))
You shouldn’t have to feel that way, it confuses me how everyone here feels the same, yet in the world there seem to be way many more toxic people. I wish you the best of luck your next few years of highschool, anyways SAMEEE- I’d prefer reading any book over sitting at my lunch table and having my two friends go to the bathroom the whole period
The only times I was ever asked out was either on a prank or a dare. It happened multiple times, across multiple schools. It got to the point where I started asking guys which it was if they asked me out or said they liked me - in retrospect, it feels a bit mean of me, but it was coming from a place of hurt. Not like I actually wanted to go out with anyone, but they'd played with my feelings and sheer desire for companionship like it was nothing more than a fun game, and it hurt. So I became prickly right back.
I wasn’t really asked out as a prank, but back before my friends started figuring themselves out, they relentlessly ‘encouraged’ that I find someone to date, someone to crush on. I honestly disliked most of the guys and some of the girls outside my friend group.
When I got frustrated about romantic feelings, I turned towards the internet for answers. I am proudly AroAce and maybe, just maybe I’ll find someone who’s willing to be in a platonic relationship.
However, some of my previous friends had discussed pulling the dating prank on someone else. I am honestly really glad I left that group of people when I got into high school.
You're obviously not the only one, there are plenty of people out there who you'll feel comfortable with.
It might take a long time, it might be hard, but if you really want it you'll find someone someday.
