By names suck and so do I - 08/08/2013 12:54 - United Kingdom - Oxford

Today, I confessed my feelings to the guy I've had the biggest crush on. He spent the next ten minutes calling me delusional, said that I know nothing about him, and laughed that "this isn't Twilight, for fuck's sake". All he did when I started crying was pat me on the head and leave. FML

You should have said, "I know it's not Twilight, it's Harry Potter. Avada-Kedavra, asshole," and walked off.

This is how you know you're better off without him. I'm sorry, though; finding out someone you like is a tool sucks.

What a douche. Glad you didn't end up dating him, he sounds like an asshole.

Wow what an asshole. You really don't want to be with someone like him. He's a douche and for him to stomp on your feelings like that was uncalled for. You dodged a bullet by not dating him, there are more fish in the sea.

I understand you had a huge crush on him, but if he did not know you well enough to believe that you genuinely liked him because of who he is, then perhaps what you felt was a relatively superficial attraction. And perhaps he felt offended by that possibility--or worse, had too much experience with this phenomenon. As for the pat on the head, he probably felt awkward trying to comfort a crying girl--especially since anything resembling a hug would give you the wrong impression. Perhaps he could have been nicer and perhaps you could have come across as or have been more genuine. I'm very sorry, and better luck next time, OP. :(

If he was worth your effort he would have handled the situation more sensible. On the other hand though, maybe he had a point? We don't know OP's story. Maybe OP is a 14 year old high school girl and her crush is a senior she has never spoken to before? That would explain his reaction. Sorry, OP :/

I've been there OP, but he and his buddies made fun of me afterwards. You can do better!

Someone needs to teach that guy some manners. Dickwad.

People like this are the reason girls are so often afraid to go for guys, instead waiting for a guy to approach them. Thanks for making it harder for guys everywhere, dildoface.

Exactly! What's so hard about saying something like, "Wow, I'm very flattered but I'm not romantically interested in you. But would love to continue our friendship." Honest but still polite. Being turned down is a dent to our egos but being told off like Op was is a total JERK move and uncalled for.
