Ngl I thought this was going to be a really fucked up greentext as soon as I read the word "cancer".

He got utterly cuckolded, what is not fucked up about this?
Sometimes relationships just don't work out?
Cool that he is wholesome even then, but he shared quite the moment and relationship with a person he will never see again. It is very one-sided.
Anon is still kind of a loser here, when you think about it, despite doing the right thing.
What a strange take. He's a loser because he has an ex?
He gave everything to person, got dumped, which is always a risk, but never got a new girlfriend. Now I know this is not what happened, but it makes him look like he got used as a stepping stone, and is still happy about it.
99% of these end in some doomed 30+ year old, being happy about some other thing, while their life is awful, and they rot away slowly.
They all seem so oblivious.
I gotta admit, I like wholesome greentexts
I did not expect anything wholesome from this c/...
Fake: anon had a girlfriend
Gay: anon had dated someone who had sex with a man
I seriously don't get what's fun about this nihilism and gay-shaming.
It's just a running joke for greentexts to call them "fake and gay", which became having to come up with some justification to attach both labels to the story instead of just saying it is. This is completely regardless of what the greentext actually consists of.
The more you have to stretch to make the labels fit, the funnier it is.
Yeah, and I find it funny precisely because of the stretching to make the labels — it makes it feel like it's making fun of people who would unironically call things fake and gay in a manner that was nihilistic and homophobic.
It's similar to how I hate the "git gud" gatekeeping that can be quite prominent amongst fans of games like Dark Souls. However, I take great joy in saying "git gud" in a context where it's patently absurd, like when my housemate arrives home completely drenched from torrential rain. It turns the joke back on the gatekeepy rhetoric
I used to behave this way, but people took me seriously every time. Like saying Veterans should die off, because they are no longer of use (as criticism to our way of seeing humans as expendable) and I became very hated for this.
Surprisingly touching, thanks for sharing
My ex from 16 years ago (16 year olds) wished me happy birthday the other week. Was weird we're both married with kids and never speak at all
She’s DTF
(Doing The Friendship)
Weird but sweet anyway
Yeah just way outta the blue, now the real question is so I have to remember hers now? Cause I don't think i do haha
If you want to, ask her and put it in your calendar! It's always nice to know someone remembers you fondly enough to send well wishes 😊
Yeah, this is great advice. It's unfortunate when pressure to do social niceties holds you back from enjoying meaningful connection with people. Some people are better at remembering dates than others, and caring enough to ask (and put it in one's calendar) is at least as powerful a gesture as actually remembering it.
OP could take a jokey tone to things, such as by expressing surprise that she was able to remember, and then asking what her birthday is
why is it weird? I do that too.
Because you're weird
Because you’re weird
i learn nothing from this
Gay: didn't wish for a blowjob, fake: she probably thinks of him too.
fug where is the funny!?! 😭
Can confirm. Am bassist for Northstar.
Thank you, Anon.
Fuck man, i was not ready
