not every nice guy stays nice

before i begin- no this is not a romance story. this is unfortunately a ‘men making things weird’ story again

so let’s start at the beginning (kinda)
i had a frnd in like 10th grade (we were frnds before that but like not rly close) he was like nice but super kooky- the type that loves queen (the rock band) we used to talk a good bit, he used to cook n i bake (i dabble but eh) so we used to share wtv goods we made and one time- there was this class skit we did in front of our school like a class assembly- so he played hitler n i voiced him (i was the only one who was half way decent at accents smh) anyway my stage fear came into play- i timed it wrong n he never got to do his part (i said it before he came on stage like huhhh) but he wasn’t mad at me- he asked me what happened n if i was ok so ye he was sweet-

so after 10th, we both moved schools, we texted a LOT n somewhere like half way thru 11th- he confessed to having a major crush on me (in his defence- i did accidentally give him mixed signals) so naturally i panicked, gave the phone to my frnd n told her to “FIX IT” god knows what she did- i don’t even remember (if i ever knew) but we decided not to speak of it again

fast forward like a year- we r in 12th, he’s in boston n we like grew apart (it was cuz of the confession- i didn’t know how to not sound like i was flirting or sm) anyway we text after a long time after homecoming (wtv he had- not me) we texted for quite a few hours n it was like 2-3am his time- it was like midday for me- so we talk abt loads of stuff from our old school n memories, wtv we were studying, law n crime n shi- and then he had to go n make things weird- he started asking for nudes- not outright but hidden in a way but it was dirty n disgusting- i felt truly uncomfortable and violated- it stopped sounding like a joke real quick- so i told him to go sleep n he kept asking for nudes n then when i kept saying no, he said i’ll go sleep but u better send me pics before i wake up- anyway i felt so uncomfortable atp

i told my frnds n they all told me to block him- i felt rly bad cuz well he was such a nice guy n we were good frnds- but frnds aren’t supposed to make u feel like that (but i didn’t get that in my head back then) so i was super worried all day n then i told monkey guy (we will come to him and his story, which is long as hell btw) and he handled it- i’m not getting into THAT story yet because that deserves its own post but ye- he helped me and i finally stopped feeling all eughh

so ye- weird ending to a friendship that once revolved around cookies and chaos- life is lowk strange

i think the worst part was that i kept convincing myself i was overreacting just because we used to be close-

anyway moral of the story- trust ur discomfort the first time
