I'm only friends with guys because girls are too much drama, teehee!

Lying down in the middle of the street in hysteria because she had an ice cream and thought she'll get fat...

She accused every ex bf of some kind of sexual misconduct, and I was shocked when it was my turn under the guillotine.

LDR Boyfriend Suicidal Addicted to the weed

I was a young, obese, and an insecure dumbass.

Within 2 weeks of meeting up with her (through bumble) she dumped her entire history on me...including a miscarriage, divorce, an abusive ex-boyfriend she was still in contact with.

I think the “guy friends” red flag is the most commonly hamstered-away one. There’s a thin line between orbiter and possible “vulnerable moment” booty call.

Mostly she was heavily invested in social drama and not very invested in anything practical.

On the first date she told me her dad was teaching her to play guitar. Later on I asked Dad if he played and he said he never had that gift.
She lied constantly about other small things in a similar vein.
She wanted to be in the hot girls clique in high school, desperately.
She had some kind of perceived rivalry going on with one of the girls in the hot girl clique, which only existed in her head.
Was supposed to be in the same graduating class as myself, but was two years behind.
Was supposed to be three years behind but at that point the state would have forced her to drop out. She was home-schooled one year to make up two years of classes.
Was lazy as fuck. I attribute the school situation above not to stupid but just being to diffident to actually do the work.
Her sister is patently unattractive. She barely even acknowledged the sisters existence.

still talking to her ex (all the time) as "friends"

Auxfite · 2018-12-18T22:45:25+00:00

First date with bpd ex. She talked about her ex for about 3-5 hours. I don’t know what I was thinking

Also said she’s been raped twice. Once by that ex. Our ltr lasted 9 months

Memeandmesomemore · 2018-12-17T10:29:18+00:00

Massive family problems that came to a head when she was 14 (parents split up after a highly disfunctional marriage).

Her mother is as mad as a bag of rats.

The apple never falls far from the tree.

One day....one day I will tell the subreddit THE most fucked up story most would ever hear...of this one girl I had major major redflags with...that went crazy...

Think hooker, heroin, cocaine, alcohol...child abuse...narcissistic ex boyfriend...that's not even the half of it...if I hadn't survived circumstances that would kill most people, I would have PTSD over this chick, lmfao

ChadTheWaiter100 · 2018-12-17T18:33:42+00:00

-she pursued me after dating my close friend

-she was dumb as fuck

-worried about who’s popular

-I WAS A lazy fucking BUM after hs. She volunteered to write a paper for me. She wrote the paper, I turned it in. The teacher pulled me aside, during class, and walked me down to the counselors office. I hadn’t even read the paper at this point. I looked at the paper. Holy shit.

Telling me on our first date that she was raped at 10 by her older sister's boyfriend. I knew I should have nexted her on the spot, but she was a 9 in my eyes... Of course it was the most awful experience I had with a girl, full of drama, stress, manipulation, etc.

Guys, learn from my mistake. Even if she's a 10, it's not worth it.
