Posting here since the main teen subreddit is kinda awful. I've liked this guy for a while, and I asked him out today and he turned me down politely, I have uhh several mental conditions that make like communication and understanding others harder and I didn't really realize he said no if I'm being honest. After some pestering he flat out asked me to accept his answer and I only then realized he had already answered me and I was being a jerk. I apologized profusely and had a mini breakdown cause of how I acted and I calmed down though and said goodbye and thanked him for being as mature as he was. Unfortunately the way we ended our messages if I'm being honest he definitely resents me at least right now and it's sad to see how you can ruin your image so fast, it was objectively entirely my fault though and I don't blame him. I hope all of you are extra carefu when asking someone out, emotions can make things messy for yourself and you won't act like yourself. Thanks for reading my little rant.

  • Yu should explain your situation and why yu acted like dat

  • I get it, communication is hard, sometimes people arnt clear. If anything He is probably just embarrassed or got annoyed at you. And even if he does resent you what's the matter He already said no. Plus that might mean he has a temper that's not compatible with you, don't try and make it work. Just try and do what you love and get past his rejection and look to the future. Just keep on keeping on. It should get better. You didn't do anything wrong it's just a misunderstanding.

  • Hun, if what u say regarding ur mental conditions is true, then its very likely that he doesn't resent u, just u may have interpreted it so? Give it a day or two and if u really think there's some 'resentment' talk and listen to him.

    Being turned down is no fun, but we cant let it bring us down.

    I can’t talk to him, not now not ever. I’ve done enough to him. It’s a miracle we parted on such mid terms.

    ??? No? She should just accept it an jot bother him no more

    Im not a she, but yeah I should have listened when he said no what’s why I was an ass.

    Ooo good ya learned

    Of course I did, I realized what I did wrong as soon as he pointed it out to me. It doesn’t make me less of a failure for it
