Sometimes extreme low self-esteem can lead you to give up on "scoring" so you start talking to beautiful people with no hang ups. It's not like you have a chance, right? Might as well enjoy their company, even if it's just for friends. Suddenly you realize you have tons in common and you like their company. You hang out together every day. They are such a good friend. Then one day they say "hey", look at you straight in the eyes, and kiss you.

We've been together for thirty years last August.

Congrats! 30 years is amazing.

It will only when you know, deep in your heart, that it is never gonna happen. Hope is cruel.

[-] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 2 weeks ago

Also, it helps if you are pursuing a genuine friendship, not just trying to be a "friend" while secretly girlfriend-zoning them.

Don't forget to put yourself out there. Interact.

[-] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

This is so, so dead on.

[-] Slovene@feddit.nl 14 points 2 weeks ago

Congrats, grandpa!

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

Don't seek a relationship. Seek a friendship and a relationship may bloom.

[-] P4ulin_Kbana@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 2 weeks ago

Congratulations!

I can see shaggy being a total hit with goth girls. He’s got lots of spooky stories and he brings snacks. What’s not to like?

[-] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 55 points 2 weeks ago

Also he has a talking pet and can play the guitar 🤘🏻

[-] QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 52 points 2 weeks ago

And lots of weed

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

I don’t recall him ever playing the guitar in the original cartoon. Is that some kind of retcon shit?

[-] vzq@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

If Scooby was a black talking cat, they be all over him from the get go. A large dog might take some getting used to.

True in my case, but there's a good reason. We started dating in HS. She has a late growth spurt, and her boobs got huge. She really filled out everywhere. And considering she was an ex athlete, she really was something to behold.

I remember being at work, and seeing a bombshell walking across the parking lot. I was in awe. And then I realized it was her. I knew it was doomed from that point on. She was constantly getting hit on by everyone by that point.

My girlfriend even went to metal shows with me. She crawled through GWARs worm once. I was so close with the band Lamb of God. This was the years 2000/2001, so they weren't popular yet. Apparently John Campbell would talk about her tits behind my back.

I even had several people say I looked like shaggy. And over twenty years later, I go to the grocery store wearing brown sweatpants and a green shirt. That was today.

Matrix confirmed.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 9 points 2 weeks ago

If Matrix was here, he’d laugh too.

[-] Shou@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

That's amazing. This is the good wholesome stuff.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 58 points 2 weeks ago

People forgot how powerful Shaggy is because it was too stressful to contemplate

[-] Infynis@midwest.social 21 points 2 weeks ago

They're not posing to get their picture taken, Shaggy just appeared there, and she was instantly paralyzed

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 55 points 2 weeks ago

ah that's probably it, maybe I'm just too handsome to get a gorgeous girlfriend

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

A few friends said that me. Pretty sure it was just to keep me going. Though One time my old 4th grade teacher stopped me when I went to my brother's parent day. Asked me if I was single and wanted to meet her child. Sadly I wasn't and my brother was there so couldn't lie even if It occurred to me to. Felt very random. Especially how forward she was on all that.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

lmao imagine asking someone out for your child, that's really not ok. poor kid...

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

Weirdly, Not as uncommon In my life. I had 2 arranged marriages that I am very happy fell through. My father kept trying to arrange with his customers kids. He made huge deal when I wouldn't indulge him any further.

[-] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 33 points 2 weeks ago

Ya'll better put some respect on my man's name. Shaggy was a real one, even when he was scared. And he came with snacks.

[-] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 30 points 2 weeks ago

I remember seeing a pretty goth girl holding hands with a guy in a full Adidas tracksuit and thinking how unusual yet awesome it was to see people from completely different social groups in a relationship.

[-] i_dont_want_to 21 points 2 weeks ago

Whoa you saw Johnathan Davis?!

[-] refalo@programming.dev 2 points 2 weeks ago

Cousin! Let's go bowling.

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago

She's only dating him to get to Scoob.

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 weeks ago

Short hair bisexual women and their tall long haired skinny boyfriends is also a trend I have noticed

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

i wonder why that is

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

My short hair bisexual daughters are actually both with skinny guys that are about their height, not tall. Like, they can swap clothing size guys.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 16 points 2 weeks ago

Honestly shaggy and Jeff from American Dad are exactly my "type"

Stoners who would go to the end of the earth for the people they love

[-] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 13 points 2 weeks ago

One review of Multiversus mentioned "I never thought I would describe Shaggy as one of the most powerful shoto charachters, but that seems to be the case".

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Oh you know Shaggy is schwangin' that schlang.

[-] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

Shaggy has some densely elongated schlang.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 10 points 2 weeks ago

As a bitter short guy the first thing I saw was "yeah, he's tall."

I guess at least I recognize I'm an asshat lol

[-] bamfic@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago
[-] FundMECFSResearch 5 points 2 weeks ago

Lmao this is me. (the guy)

[-] praise_idleness@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago
[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I think so. Butch Hartman's version of gorgeous, but the women who enjoy being different? Sign me up.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 0 points 2 weeks ago

People underestimate their own attractiveness and overrate others'. People are attracted to different things. You may think you're ugly for X but someone thinks you're attractive for Y. They might not care about X. Even apart from that, there are things people want in a partner that have nothing to do with looks.
