Look who i saw on tinder
(Im only sending this to u btw)
Yesssssssss
Go off king
Ikr!
He was SO homophobic to me in school
really gave me a lot of trouble
Especially from 8-15
Wow seriously
I actually have gay related stories with him
yeah in an extreme way
Interesting
What r they
Because it's just around when I was 15 that I met him
Ooue
And he was like telling me that he thought Jonah hill was attractive
do u mean channing tatum?
And that he could say that because he was really secure in his masculinity
oh god
No?
But then also
Thats cool, I said that bc 21 jump
We were having a fight once
Cause he was really mean to me too
I was also mean to him
But we were having a fight
im sure u weren’t really
And he said something about the fact that he was respected amongst his peers
I don't know teenagers don't have souls i didn't really either
And anyway I responded
*queers
amongst his queers?
That was the implication
Which is obviously a homophobic comment
he knew literally one queer
Me
apart from u
But he like FLEW off the handle
hows that
I guess I was just implying that boys from your school were like effeminate or whatever cause like
posh boys etc
It wasn't very well thought out
But he was like that's horrible and homophobic and then he blocked me
He was so angry
Oh sorry i understand now
So u replied:*queers
But like all of this adds up 100%
i thought u did a typo
Yes exactly
Ah oui oui
Ohhhh yes no fair that wasn't clear at all
What did he say to warrant ur meanness
Im sure a lot of course
But what was the topic
Oh my god, he was SO mean
We had a lot of rights
Fights
Same here
I was actually reading over some of them not long ago
He really knew how to play into insecurities
for sure
Probably because he had so many
:(
is it bad that i would kind of kiss him
as in i wouldn’t but i also would
But i am happy for him, it's great that he is getting out there
what do u think of the moral implications of
that
Oh none at all really
I don't even think you have a need to rule it out
Or in
yeah i don't need to think about it
We didn't match anyways
