This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

To be fair it's kinda her fault for not stating her intentions clearly. Sure you could argue there was supposed to be some mind reading or unspoken social cues going on but we all know that's not obvious enough. You were both young and inexperienced.

Yep. Women are allowed to be awkward at getting what they want too.

To be fair, I'm married and frequently misunderstand my SO, and it doesn't help that they have a different native language. For example, when they say, "we're out of X," I take that as informative, not a request to go get more X. But sometimes I catch on, like this morning (WFH today) when they said, "are you busy?" (or similar) and I correctly interpreted that as "I want sex." You win some and you lose some; sometimes I'm in the dog house, and other times I'm pounding out a quickie in the middle of the day.
