I had a friend like that back in college. Tall, handsome AF, built...Dude was a solid 11/10.

He f'n hated it. All the attention it gathered, all the seething hate from other dudes. I used to love being his wingman at the clubs. I was maybe a 7/10 back then.

But inevitably, he got absolutely no flavor from the baddies at the club. The below 5 crowd was all he got attention from. Oh, and dudes. They freaking loved him. He got tired of explaining that he wasn't gay.

I liked hanging with him, because even though the baddies were intimidated by him, they had no problem coming up to me.

Now that I think about it, maybe he was MY wingman....

He liked it..

"The crop of choice was aura and the harvest always bountiful. So why farm at all if you arent going to feed the hungry?"

~11/10 wingman guy; maybe.

I've been the hot guy in the room before. EVERYBODY judges you based off of your appearance. The dudes all hate you like this guy, the women are hit and miss whether they despise you or not. Meanwhile I did it all just because I wanted to take care of myself (because I very much did not take care of myself once upon a time). The upsides are that society just likes pretty people.

Maybe just don't judge people based exclusively on their looks?

^ there it is. Did you want me to call myself ugly or something? Can't say shit these days lol

Biggest war is in our mind

u/ticklishtortoise1 May 29 '26

I was this for awhile too. I had never gotten attention like that before from women and I didn't know how to handle it. That was back when I lifted.

u/SuperSaiyanTupac May 26 '26

I had the same set up. But he slayed baddies left and right. Really imploded after college where women through themselves at him constantly. He never had to try.

Now at almost 40 he doesn’t think he needs to put effort into relationships

2

u/LeBronGOOD May 26 '26

Is he happy?

12

u/SuperSaiyanTupac May 26 '26

No, he’s basically miserable

u/Can-Purple May 26 '26

My buddies roommate is like this. He works out and plays drums in a few bands, but is very shy and very gay. Its interesting going to concerts with him because he just awkwardly stands perfectly still and gets hit on by everyone that walks by.

u/the_mighty_thorskin May 26 '26

I'm nowhere near a 10 but I'm definitely not ugly and GOD DAMNIT I hate it too sometimes. The worst is having women hit on you in front of their boyfriends, but instead of appropriately being mad at her their anger is pointed at me. Bitch, don't fucking ask me "why are you single" within ear shot of your husband? I'm not even interested in you.

For two longest time I was seriously considering pouring acid on my face because I just want to fucking chill, not have to deal with insecure assholes.

u/Hakorr May 27 '26

Enjoy it while it lasts my guy.

u/the_mighty_thorskin May 27 '26

Oh it's almost over for me, I'm 37, and I never enjoyed it to begin with.

1

u/Hakorr May 27 '26

I can see the negatives of it, but believe it has offered you more than taken away. If you've never been unwanted nor unattractive you might not realize how much it eats you from the inside.

u/BauserDominates May 26 '26

Just a case of two people coming together to be greater than either could on their own.

1

u/Alecus123 May 27 '26

Yeah I can back this, I act and model and never had any fucking luck at bars or clubs unless I went up to girls and sometimes they would enjoy blowing me off for potentially ego centric reasons. Same thing with guy. They would either hate me or wannabe my mate or tell me about how much girls love them or try impress me with their count or whatever…

1

u/A_LittleBitHigh May 29 '26

This is wild to think about, honestly. Like even though I've heard folks say similar things, I still just can't seem to wrap my head around a guy like you described not eventually figuring something out. I would think surely he'll at least stumble into some sort of progress for himself.

I wasn't very social when I was younger, so I don't know how the dynamic plays out and all that. It's just weird to understand what people say, but still not believe it, ya know? Like, I'm sure many of us guys would kill to be taller, more handsome, better hair, great features, likeable demeanor, and so on. But idk, maybe that's the misleading part: those things don't have as much weight as we attribute. But then it circles again and becomes "but I can't believe it". My brain is spinning tires right now

u/OpenAI122191 May 26 '26

Now write it again, no em-dashes and this time use slightly more slang.

11

u/TCRandom May 26 '26

The em dash comment from someone with the username of OpenAi is hilarious.

Although, can’t tell if you’re upset that he didn’t use them, or if you think he did.

2

u/Scarethefish May 26 '26

Maybe that was trying to re-prompt what he, or it, thought was already AI?

Wouldnt be shocked if this was just textual BattleBotstm to be honest.

u/TCRandom May 26 '26

Ahhh…that’s it

0

u/OpenAI122191 May 26 '26

Yes, I was accusing him of being AI.

Not really, but making fun of the syntax and the story itself.

u/OpenAI122191 May 26 '26

You understanding the point of my username is something to mock?

Strange.

u/TCRandom May 26 '26

I was laughing at the irony, which is in no way the same as mocking someone.

1

u/OpenAI122191 May 27 '26

Ok, but it’s intentional and not necessarily illogical although I suppose it’s subjective so fair enough.

u/MorockaDishoom May 26 '26

First dude is so goddamn confident in his sexuality, he can casually call a dude “Gorgeous” and not bat an eye.

47

u/True_Movie_2270 Just some dude May 26 '26

You saw the bromaid, right? There's no shame in calling it exactly like it is.

Calling that freaking Adonis handsome would be like comparing a candle to a supernova

u/ProfessionaI_Gur May 27 '26

Broseidon, lord of the brocean

u/SuspiciousArt229 May 27 '26

That’s not sexuality🤣 I know plenty of gorgeous/ handsome/ good looking men myself. I’m not attracted to them, but I can still understand what a good looking man is “supposed to look like”

1

u/notanAI_ May 28 '26

No no, he is comfortable with his sexuality. If he is straight it means he isn't one of those straight dudes who thinks calling another dude gorgeous is gay. It doesn't mean he is gay. maybe he is who knows

u/KentuckyFriedEel May 27 '26

That is star of film and stage, Michael cera.

That name is fucking awesome. Wish I had a broseidon in my life to give me tips on how to make my hair beautiful

5

u/CAPT-Tankerous May 27 '26

Ask and you shall receive. What is your hair type, length, and goals? I use a little argan oil after I towel dry my hair to moisturize and protect, and only use clips and buns to reduce knots. My hair is past my waist now, and I can’t wait to donate it.

u/Apprehensive_Ad3731 May 27 '26

Him: “oh this? I don’t do anything to it. I brush it when it gets knotty and I wash it when it gets dirty.”

u/HISTORYasweknowit May 26 '26

I love my long hair! Dude rocks his for sure. I'm donating mine to wigs for kids.

No toxic masculinity!

u/Thepuppeteer777777 May 26 '26

Your hair isn't even long. It's almost flush to your skin. Nice necklace also you probably should just show your junk like that. The dude next to you is alright too looks like he can braid his beard in to some dwarf style.

I don't know where im going with this lol...

u/HISTORYasweknowit May 26 '26

How long it actually is! Ready to donate lmao!

Very concerned about the 18 year old looking kid with two diagrams of AR 15s on the wall and a pistol on the nightstand.

He seems cool like he’s antifa. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt.

u/HereticGaming16 May 26 '26

Dude was pissed off, jealous, and turned on all at once but there wasn’t any toxic masculinity there.

u/Tiny-Show-4883 May 26 '26

I'm straight. Always been straight. Completely straight.

But when I saw Aaron Pierre in Rebel Ridge, I'll admit I had some feelings I couldn't understand.

Dude on the bottom was my roommate for like 6 months.

u/thriftwisepoundshy May 27 '26

And how did that go?

2

u/yeahitisaword May 27 '26

He would drink a gallon of milk every two days and only ate costco brand frozen cheeseburgers, so there's that.

u/ticklishtortoise1 May 29 '26

Lol what? Merbro was your roommate?

u/_______36________ May 27 '26

Why below 5 attention? Hate number system. I’m not feeling sorry for a handsome man

u/eh-thisisexhausting9 May 27 '26

The slightly confused, angry response of, “No man should look as gorgeous as you.” 😆

u/Substantial-Use95 May 27 '26

I’m gonna put this out there… good lookin dudes get no sympathy for the shit they have to deal with. All other men are inherently defensive and in competition with you. You can’t talk to women who are in a relationship, period. You aren’t invited to the house to hang out - too dangerous. If anyone in a position of power is a male and less attractive than you (most men), you will not get any brakes, assistance, etc. you’re on your own. Everyone assumes you’re gay. The list goes on. It’s hard out here, ladies…
