And then blatantly lying about it.
Grill dodged a bullet with this one. This anon seems to be really dumb. What kind of person never opens a gifted book, let alone one that is a gift from a girl? A person that doesn’t read shit, that kind of person. She was clearly above him.
Yeah I think this is obvious, anon clearly didn’t give a shit about the gift so it’s a clear sign for her to move on.
Nature taking its course.
Well, I got one once during a secret santa event. Put it on my to read list and never came around to it. Then I lent it to a friend and he told me, that there is a note for me inside, that I didn’t know about.
Secret Santa is clearly not the same as a gift from someone you’re romantically interested in, though.
True, but he wasn’t, she was.
Could’ve just never got around it. “I’ll check it out tomorrow”, then days turn to weeks and so on. Happens
plot twist: it was actually a girl the whole time and not a grill
This has me Stoked
Anon was on fire!

I like my grills double for that evenly baked on both sides
Plot twist: the grill who gave him the book was actually just the lady who works at the books store. The “romantic note” was a receipt for the 10 volumes of Shota manga Anon had them special order for him. When he saw that it said “please shop with us again” at the bottom he almost fainted.
This makes me irrationally angry lol
Don’t worry, it’s not real.
sounds real autistic
Read that as acoustic and was wondering what music we were listening to.
The lamentations of the people getting triggered as intended by op.
People will really say that even the most normal ass green texts are fake huh
Yes. Literally nothing on 4chan is real. Is it your first day on the internet or something?
100% deserved, at least open the fucking gift and don’t lie to her about doing so. Girl dodged a huge bullet.
Sounds like she wanted it but was committed to taking the advice of that John Waters quote
“I’ve always been willing to sell out. It’s just that no one has been willing to buy”
Ah yes, a timeless quote.
I meant the one about gatekeeping sex on bookreading but that could work too
Anon meant so much to her she couldn’t ask if he found the note?
well it was pretty clear he didn’t, why would she have to ask?
I mean if she wanted to know how he felt about her
you mean she could’ve avoided wasting money on a book? I guess, but confessing through this way is kind of cute.
I mean yeah, simplest would’ve been just to ask. The book and the note was a cute idea but didn’t quite play out the way she was hoping lol
Gifting someone something and taking the time to write a thoughtful note is a very nice thing people do for each other.
Typically you respond in kind with a “thank you for the gift and the card/note/well wishes attached”.
These are what would be considered “polite social norms”.
The girl slipping a note in to the gift and saying her feelings also is not crazy. It can be hard to put yourself out there.
HOWEVER if someone straight snubs your gift it’s gonna be shitty even if it’s from a friend. He snubbed her, she got the message even if he didn’t know he was answering.
This is normal human behavior folks.
Its probally for the best If its not writen by cory doctrow Why even bother.
This would haunt me forever til near suicide. I’d remember this whenever I feel alone…which would be hourly.
Edit: I’m talking about that missed once in a lifetime opportunity by being stupid.
No, it wouldn’t because you would at crack open the book. It’s extremely common to write a note in the first few pages of a gifted book.
Don’t worry, you will find something else that will haunt you forever.
Book sucks tho, Anon dodged a weirdo
It doesn’t matter at all if the book sucked.
Clearly it did for him. What if it was about horoscopes and the healing powers of birthday stones and essential oils?
These books have no plot.
