He got her jewels and all that jazz! Getting gifts for female friends on holidays/birthdays is one thing, but if this is the route he wants to go, go full bore!

Those 'jewels' may as well have come from a vending machine.

*adjusts monocle*

 

[Borgnine]

It could be her brother honestly, my mom got me a Spin Doctor's CD for Valentines Day one year.

 

[Deified Data]

"I went to Jared" I whispered as she opened the small velvet box of Subway coupons.

I laughed.

Step 1: Buy obviously fake jewelry from vending machine
Step 2: ?
Step 3:

A CRUSHING DEFEAT

In a totally unrelated deal; what are monocles even for? Like, I get the concept.. But when was that even useful?

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I wonder if he's a GAFfer.

 

[SouthernDragon]

Wow, this is sad. When a girl has a guy, step off.

 

[commedieu]

"I went to jared lol" should be their new ad campaign

Yeah.

you're back.

friendzone level ... infinity. Friendbro.

Something tells me her boyfriend probably doesn't see him as competition.

Not when they are pawning all his gifts for rent/vacation.

but he went to jared lol

 

[Shambles]

I really hope that is her brother.

 

[Az]

We need to start putting up warnings for cringe pictures like that. Ugh...

 

[blame space]

maybe now she'll realize they're meant to be.

 

[Spawnling]

The friendzone, how does it work?

 

[tycoonheart]

Something tells me her boyfriend probably doesn't see him as competition.

Oh not at all, I bet. Shit like this has happened twice with my girlfriend and guys she's worked with. She'd tell them she has a boyfriend, they'd still keep asking her out, keeping buying her gifts. One in particular gave her two movie tickets and said "maybe we can go watch a movie together sometime." Thanks for the free movie, brah.

 

[kaskade]

I kind of feel for the guy but this is a new level of stupid.

 

[SolKane]

maybe he is gay and has a good friendship with her?

Juan is her brother... That's why he's not competition...

 

[KingofGourds]

This kind of event is like being kicked in the balls - most guys have had the experience.

Usually however, it's an experience we have well before we have any significant cash or access to credit.

Juan you silly bastard.

 

[darkwing]

with jewels and cars

 

[Lucario]

Sad. So very sad. Juan should know better; I'm always surprised that people's parents let them get away with this sort of bullshit. "Don't be a simp" is going to immediately follow the sex talk if I ever have kids.


... but am I the only person who rejects gifts from simps? They get pissed off for a while, but then they leave you alone. It's not worth putting up with that type of person for some shitty costume jewelry and an old phone. Not blaming the girl or saying it's immoral, I'm just curious why so many people -- male and female -- will accept kindness coins.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Bro? wtf is this shit?

 

[sfedai0]

Is this a new thing? Should I get my sister something from Jared?

 

[bjb]

There's a lot of debate over the correct use of the term "simp".

For example:

a guy who acts all tough like he doesn't care about his girlfriend around his friends but acts all whipped in front of his girlfriend.
(to friends)
Simp: Alicia's nothin to me. I don't even like her, man. I'm just playin her.
(to Alicia)
Simp: Baby girl, i love you. You're my everything.

I bought my sister some chocolates for Valentines day. Did I do it wrong?

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Omega level simp

This is not even his final form.

 

[McLovin]

No... oh shit should I get my sister something too?

 

[EdibleExplosives]

You don't have to be gay to be friends with a girl, I'm sure men have evolved slightly past 'MUST FUCK EVERYTHING ATTRACTIVE' caveman status.
However, gay or not, he bought her a bunch of expensive gifts on Valentine's day. That's just fucking weird.

You crazy

 

[vas_a_morir]

I'm now leaning toward that being her brother. I've seldom if ever heard a girl call a guy 'bro.' Unless, she's awkwardly trying to reassert her disinterest in a romantic relationship. I've heard girls say dude, man, and so on... but never bro.

Look, I just really want to believe this is a gift from her brother who gave her and all the female members of his family gifts.

Reread: Naw, the 'friendship' thing seals it. This dude is a Simp.

Today I learned what "simp" means. Thanks NeoGAF!

Anecdotal but my sister calls me bro all the time. We can't really know the nature of their relationship with just this information though. Someone should find the source.

Ten points to Gryffindor.

According to who, though?

[Omegasquash]

I remember 8 or 9 years ago (to the day) when something like this happened to my gal. I was home, and she was working at a bar while going to grad school. Comes home with a teddy bear, a dozen roses and a box of chocolates.

Had a shit eating grin on her face too.

Anyway, I played along and asked her where she got them, and she said that "John got them for me, he's a regular." So I did what I should have done. I went and grabbed a vase for the roses, which were shitty quality, and put them in the kitchen. I then sat on the couch and, as I sat down, our cat proceeded to attack the teddy bear. She then opened up the chocolates which, to John's credit, were Russell Stover's.

I grabbed a few and chowed down, then asked her if she wanted to get ready for the dinner we had planned. She put on a tight little number, I freshened up, and we had a great time. Even got a hummer that night.

So thanks, John. You gave me a chance to look classy and contributed to my getting laid that night.

how sure?

The everyday usage of the word.

 

[Tamanon]

I'd prefer "Juan is the Loneliest Number"

These stories reek of insecurity.

 

[Dark Octave]

I'm sorry, I can't see clearly but is the other person who "liked" the post(I assume the boyfriend) named "Berito"?

 

[Slayven]

These stories reek of insecurity.

How so?

 

[Omegasquash]

These stories reek of insecurity.

Lol. We're married now.

Point is, that poor dude shouldn't have wasted his money on something like this. My guess is that he knew she was taken, so he's "competition" in the way that a Pegasus Knight is to an Archer. Just an opportunity.

wait blame space has been phoenix down'ed?

Odds she'll ever bang him?








A million to Juan.

 

[Borgnine]

What about his cum licking grin?

 

[WARCOCK]

Guy is a sucker. But I think said girl is partly responsible for fueling that type of relation, unless of course she has no clue friendzoned guy is in love with her. It's cruel to lead on someone you know you don't like.

 

[Heysoos]

Evilore's valentines day gift to GAF.
