A shame she did not have him go to the date as planned, only so that she could hide and take pictures of him.

I need to see this sad person.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

(I was joking)

I actually looked back at his messages and completely missed the part where he called himself a doctor. My bad. LOL

 

[psynergylover]

lol! turn that $900 in 12 hours to $900 a month and the "doctor" into cleaning a doctors office and that other woman to visiting his mother....bye Felipe!!!

 

[MikeDip]

I actually looked back at his messages and completely missed the part where he called himself a doctor. My bad. LOL

The 75 bucks an hour was also what his alleged rate of pay would be if we take his claims of 900 bucks for a 12 hour shift at face value I worked hard on that joke

 

[Velcoro]

cringe

 

[The Technomancer]

Oh my god

 

[Bronx-Man]

This is one of those moments that make me realize that I wouldn't be able to last one day as a woman. The amount of harassment to go through is just staggering.

 

[Murkas]

Dude! It's just a prank!

 

[Deleted member 80556]

He's a doctor and has higher thoughts or something? Wtf. Why are people so crazy.

 

[ZackieChan]

Dating Age |OT| See you Wednesday, ok?

You have my sword.

You inferior intellects just can't understand. Have you ever made $900 dollars in cold hard cash in a mere 12 hours?

...I thought not.

lol what a weirdo.

I've done it in 2. See you Wednesday, OK?

75 bucks an hour is pretty damn sweet though...

Money can't buy you out of desperation, apparently.

 

[Chmpocalypse]

And they say doctors have control issues.

In his case, birth control issues.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

A doctor can ask medical questions mate it's what they get paid 75 dollars an hour to do

Touché.

First thing that came to mind for me. That by itself is weird enough.

why is he calling her dude though

Really guys? That's the weird part for you, the part that sticks out?

SMH

 

[Badgerst3]

This is like a gory train wreck that can't be looked away from.

Gotta know more- IDK pics or more follow up?

Woman handled it like a pro.

Some people are just nuts.

 

[tearsintherain]

the dude needed his war council to advise him on texting etiquette

If anyone wants to read more examples of guys not being able to handle it when a woman says no to them, check out r/creepypms on reddit. It's amazing, and horrifying.

 

[TheOMan]

You missed some GLORIOUS print screens

Wow, she dodged a horrible time.

 

[ampere]

Yea, I think I'd NOPE right off the internet

Really guys? That's the weird part for you, the part that sticks out?

SMH

Of all the things in that conversation to be bothered by... wow. Who cares, I've known girls who use dude a lot and don't mind it. Not a big deal at all

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Projected out to a 60 hour work week that's <$250k per year, which is up there but not unheard of.

It really isn't if you're a specialist... and it's close to average otherwise.

 

[wachie]

pls dude

 

[Darksol]

She needs premium, dude. Duuuuude, preeemmmiiuuummm!

 

[UnemployedVillain]

To go off like that and try to call her the psycho is something else.

"So ill see you Wednesday?"

Is that Louis CK in the audience??

 

[Javaman]

She should have called him out on being creepy as hell. That would have put him into a downward spiral and likely caused him to stop contact.

 

[Alchemy]

Guys that get rejected can be completely fucking bonkers, this definitely isn't a first.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or you actually think that'd be his reaction

 

[G-Fex]

I wonder which gaffer that is.

Yup sounds like it'd be a gaf poster

 

[Shadybiz]

Really guys? That's the weird part for you, the part that sticks out?

SMH

Wellll I guess I misspoke. The first text was the obvious thing. ...The dude thing was a close second.

Spoiler

....Dude.

 

[RoslindaleOne]

He couldn't just take the L. I want to know what she looks like for him to be that desperate.

 

[Replicant]

He's a doctor who likes to kid around but just lost his mom.

EDIT: And he's intelligent too so his brain works beyond what us, mere mortal, can comprehend.


*sure jan.gif*

 

[G-Fex]

Wait, they revealed the woman's user name but not the guy's? Why?

 

[Skeyser]

Wait, they revealed the woman's user name but not the guy's? Why?

It's her imgur username, the place she uploaded the original screencaps

 

[Zaptruder]

Oh my god, men are so creepy, lets all chop off our own penises right?

Spoiler

Poor showing from the doctor, but cringing at the knee jerk extrapolation occurring here. I get that guys acting creepy is the stereotype. Sometimes we should question if reinforcing the stereotype from either direction is a good thing or not.

 

[BSsBrolly]

Damn... I'm so thankful I've never been this desperate/creepy. I mean, I have plenty of moments I look back on that make me cringe... But this.... This is another level.

 

[Syf]

Oh god lmao, I love cringe like this. Who the hell asks about birth control before you even have a date. She was right to cancel as soon as he did.

 

[Memento]

Can someone explain me the joke? Maybe it is because english is not my first language, because I didnt understand at all. I didnt get it, what does birth control has to do with anything and how was it offensive?

It's not reinforcing the stereotype. No one thinks all guys are creepy. But some people have a hard time imagining that guys like this exist and think us girls are overreacting about how men treat them, so I think it's pretty necessary to showcase stuff like this.

 

[lenovox1]

To expand on what Skeysar said, Tinder only works if you connect it to your Facebook account. They would know each other by their first names; no username is created.

 

[blame space]

the joke is that he was totally kidding about asking her if she was on birth control before their first date

That was your takeaway from all this? I don't know what you're basing this on.

This girl must have been very hot. The desperation was off the charts.

Louis CK is balding, that dude has a full head of hair

 

[Air]

'please respond'.

Dudes a creep.

 

[Pancake Mix]

This reminds me of the Miiverse love story.

"hello plz say something"

"hello"

 

[windz]

This is why some people will suddenly stop messaging you. Cause of shit like this. Wowzers.

 

[Cow Mengde]

So which Gaffer was it?

 

[keuja]

Please respond
Please

 

[DrZeus]

I wish I could uncringe...my gawd.

 

[Slayer-33]

I wish I could uncringe...my gawd.

You have unlocked a new cringe level

 

[cameron]

Super fucking cringe. I thought the first pair of "Please call me" "Please" was the end of it. But it became much worse and kept going.

Joke post? I can't tell.

Usually how these things go is that when women call out creepy or inappropriate behaviour, some dudes take it as an affront and shadowbox their goofy inference that they're not allowed to talk to women anymore. Your post reads like some variant of that.

 

[TheGatsby]

"You know I'm a doctor right?"

hnghhh can people please not. I cringed pretty badly

 

[Zaptruder]

To be honest, I think there's a problem with using this sort of thing to justify poor behaviour - 'This is why people ghost.'

Like... there are clear examples of crazy female stuff out there - and if we used that in context to highlight how crazy she was, and used that to justify poor behaviour towards women as a whole, I'm sure someone would call that shit out as unjustifiable.

At least that's where I'm coming from. Maybe that's reading into things a bit too much - but it's not like selectively showing people certain types of information/narrow context to incite certain general opinions is an uncommon thing. I mean, to put it another way, it's not necessary to be explicit to imply something!

Anyway, it was a knee jerk post of annoyance from me. Not entirely without reason, but not something so important to me that I'm going to be defending this point further.
