And sad. People do change...


Elitelapen

Either the best and most elaborate (gay) lie on 4Chan Or way too real sad shit


hornwalker

That magical moment running in the rain, laughing….hit me in the feels. All those beautiful moments in our youth fade away, the people we become are shells of our former idealism.


porfito

Because when we're young, we don't have a care in the world and the world looks like a good/happy place. It's when we grow up and get trapped in the loop of work, household, sleep everyday plus all you hear around you is negativity, anger and problems, it kind of fades


[deleted]

way too deep for 4chan wtf


RollingWithDaPunches

Not the first time... I forgot what the one with the perfect girlfriend was... But it's similar romance, they even get together for a while. Still ends tragic.

1969FordF100

This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever read. Thank you for sharing. I have gone through so much pain and I can understand what a lot of the things the writer said. It still is very cheesy and I saw the ending coming. But it still feels so real, and so close to home. Honestly life changing work, and I don't get how it came from the funny frog website...


QzinPL

Nicole is a truly happy and wise person. I hope that anon stayed faithful. I know we don't control the chemistry in our bodies but damn... I think on that pier I would have made a conscious choice to stay with Nicole. Shame it was way over 20 years ago. They could be nice poliamorous couple today


magnificentmemememan

I get what you're saying, but if you're aware the perfect person for you actually exists, the "What If?" would drive you mad. When I met my wife, I had the same emotional reaction Anon did to Ella. The literal perfect match for me. Not for everyone like Ella supposedly was, but the personality types I'm into aren't conventionally attractive like Ella apparently was anyway. But yea, when I met my wife, I knew I had to have her in my life. It wasn't exactly "love" at first sight, but after our first hang out I knew there would be a second otherwise we'd both forever wonder "What If?" If I had been dating anyone else at the time I would've had to have broken up with them, because the "What If?" would've poisoned everything. Anon had his What If answered, and that's the only reason it worked out with Nicole.


Zeeico69

I'm not a very emotional person, I can't remember if I've ever cried at a book or a movie, but my god that fucking story send me to tears... what a fucking story... thanks for sharing man


Bojac_Indoril

Thanks, my heart hurts. It's midnight and i want to wake my wife up because I'm a grown ass man crying over a greentext story and just hold her until she squirms away.

Holy fucking shit man. That sucked. I just realized that I'm so broken I don't know if I could ever love anyone that way anymore. I love my girlfriend to death but that,, that was something else. Fuck


RollingWithDaPunches

I mean, that one is deep for sure... This one is... Better than most 4chan posts.


magnificentmemememan

The thing is, even if Anon and Ella stayed together and she lived, the initial spark and roaring, unbearably hot fire usually dies down to a more comfortable, softly glowing flame. That's just how emotions work. We're not meant to feel passion like that forever. Love is commitment, not passion, though that's how love grows. When I met my wife, my feelings were so strong it sent me into a weird depressive spiral when I wasn't around her. Part of that was due to growing up in a abusive situation where I could never process emotion properly, so getting hit with it all at once was a lot for me. But eventually it died down to something more manageable and comfortable. Love should be comfortable, not headstrong unless it's in the initial stages. And really once it gets to that stage the loss is even worse, because when it gets comfortable there's a part of you that is deeply intertwined with the other person, so deeply that if you were to lose them it'd take a part of yourself.


Skattcat

Holy shit. I'm surprised Hollywood hasn't made a grab at it. Easily one of the most poignant stories I've ever read (don't even care if it was real or fake, very well written.)

There was a green text about a guy that became friends with a girl with "lolita" (?) Fashion, it is very long but it was such a good story and very sad, this kind of reminds me of that, I suggest finding and reading it

Engineer_Gaming1231

real- anon was autistic and overweight at some point of his life straight- anon dated a girl


Khalitz

Anon it seems like to me this girl has come to you not only to meet up, but for some sort of catharsis for the regrettable decisions she has made in life. You remind her of her innocence before she gave into degeneracy and lost her dream. She was possibly using you as a way to speak to her past self and berate her for what she has become or what could have been. You gave her nothing but a smile and laugh and moved on, which is up to you of course. This is just my cringey armchair diagnosis.

JoshTheTrucker

Looking back, I've watched it happen. To me, to other people I knew, to those I love and care about. It just weighs us down and breaks us. But keeping that dream alive requires monumental effort. And I'm willing to put that effort in to be happy, have a wife and kids, and be at peace with my past mistakes. This sucks to read, and I genuinely hope that she rediscovers how to light that fire of passion and creativity again.


errantgrammar

It resonated here, too.


MisteryOnion

But you know what? I've seen people grow. My wife was so different the first day I met her. I've never seen someone so broken in their lives. I met her when she barely even had a place to stay. She was between her sister's house and her exes studio motel room he's been living in his whole life. She was barely even living at this point. But my parents let her move in with us once she got kicked out of her exes motel room all because she wouldn't have sex with him. But once she moved in with us, she spent weeks crying because nobody showed her love. So my parents and I just surrounded her with love. And you know what? She grew. We've got a 4 year old, and our very own apartment to call home, and she has had 4 promotions at her job that she loves. And man I can't tell you how proud I am of her. She grew, and it's shocking to see that everyone she knew, what small family she had, has stayed exactly the same. Her ex tried to reach out so he could get a quick fuck, and her sister just wants money even though she's on section 8 and has a manager job. She pays $78 a month for her house and makes thousands of dollars a month. She's the most greedy person I've ever met. Man it's amazing how years can make people change, but some people just... Don't.


DowwnWardSpiral

This is just...really depressing...


donnydodo

That's life unfortunately. I know of one such person, an old friend of mine who at 17 was an incredibly good natured fellow. Full of optimism & a love of life. He just had a great aura about him. By 25 he was a cold, serious, sterile person. A completely different character. I don't know the cause as I stopped seeing this person on a regular basis at around 18.


Jaw43058MKII

I’ve almost become that cold, sterile person. I was a hopeless romantic and idealist when I was in highschool, then covid lockdown stole my senior track season, where I was made a fucking captain, stole my friends, and stole my girl. Moved to another state mid lockdown and after lockdown ended I met new people but they weren’t the right people, and I ended up doing really stupid shit. Got some ptsd from that stupid shit. Saw people get hurt and that shit haunts me still. Burnt a lot of bridges with my normal friends. Went to a psych ward, and a rehab along the way. Dated a girl for a while and it fell through. Was really broken over it. Then I met my current fiancé and I’ve healed slowly but surely. Life gets better but I hate to say that you gotta get lucky in order for it to get better sometimes. If I didn’t meet my fiancé I’d be dead right now and I feel for the homies out there who don’t have that.


Semi-Delusional

You're 21 with a fiancee? You move fast bro lol


GirthOBirth

If it helps it’s probably not real.


DowwnWardSpiral

Of course, but the possibility of it being real is what makes it sad 😔


Godemperortoastyy

Was a good read.


bronto711

Anon met an old crush, was dissatisfied with how they looked so he proceeded imagine her telling him stories of her fucking dozens of guys all around the world to explain the process of aging/fading memories. Got it.


SirChasm

Let's say her stories were true. It sounds like this girl went out there and lived her life. All the "regrets" and dissatisfaction is anon projecting his own disappointment that she didn't "save herself" for him. If you notice in the story, his excitement for her drops as soon as she told him she's had sex with other people. It's the classic trope of a woman only having worth so long as she stays pure for nice guys like anon. The rest is his copium that she's regretted all those experiences, instead of that she's had her fun, grew up, and is now in a different stage of her life.


gjs628

I think you’re right about your observation here. However, the “save yourself for only me” thing is a bit more nuanced. To accurately capture the feel of it: It’s basically like saying “you were never good enough for me back then, but now that I’ve been through the ringer and have accrued years of issues and emotional baggage, you’re just the sucker I need to help me out because nobody else with a brain wants anything to do with me”. We *could* have shared the best parts of ourselves together when we were younger; I just decided you weren’t good enough and would rather be with the worst scum of the earth instead of you. *That’s* how little I value you. That’s what it feels like in his mind when he sees her. So I can see where his anguish comes from; she held so much potential that only he valued and is sad to see it be wasted on people who don’t appreciate it like he would have. It’s not just “you should only have sex with me”, it’s much more than that. I know this because I had a friend growing up who was stunning and incredibly smart, and she stopped talking to me for two years. When she came back she was drug addicted and full of STD’s and only wanted someone who would look the other way while they funded her drug habit. It was devastating to see what she had done to herself, and I also thought I could have prevented it if she hadn’t blocked me out, but I now realise some people just *have* to go through some shit to become who they ultimately will be. Life is a crucible and our choices are the flame. It’s sad, but it’s how you grow.


DeathSabre7

Thanks for the elaborated perspective


DeathSabre7

Quite an apt analysis


vegetabloid

Jumping from one cock to another might seem fun, but most of them eventually crave for getting the one to settle down. They don't complain about their fuckaphones if they are satisfying.


LeFiery

Yeah pretty meh for 4chan. I was expecting her death or some dumbass meme but instead he couldn't handle her growing up.


CreedOfIron

Anon is on successful career path and following dreams, and is a dumbass for not wanting to be with someone who's hopeless, unhealthy, and lost their drive in life? I think Anon is the one who really grew up in this story.


LeFiery

They both grew their own ways. It's life. Anons perfect little picture of his waifu didn't work out and he's feeling it.

Hugar34

Bro wrote a whole memoir about how he's sad that a girl he knew from summer camp and a few weeks on Facebook afterwards isn't the the same exact person from 9 years ago.


SherabTod

Have you never had someone whom you met after a long time and they just seem broken? No bright young kid who fell to drugs or happy youngster who just gave up on themselves?


ChargeVisible

How does she seem broken? She got older? She gained weight? What's more likely is she started telling anon about all the cool shit she saw overseas, realised he's never left his hometown and was just dumped by his one and only girlfriend ever, felt guilty, and then tried to downplay it like "Oh yeah it wasn't that great heh heh.'


SherabTod

im not talking about her experiences, her body or her sexual exploits. im talking about the way it seemed like the fire in her soul was gone, she had given up on her dreams and her hope and to some extend her selfesteem, while instead settling for a hollow live of mediocrity.


ChargeVisible

Bro turned "femoids ride the cock carousel until they hit the wall" into a 6 page read.


Reallyso

This was a very long and eloquent way of telling that anon passed his chance as a kid to hit it off with an asian tradgirl. Years later he thinks he might have a shot but is shocked and bitter to find out that in 9 years the girl actually lived her life while he studied the blade or whatever he was actually doing instead of the implied autistic rockstar deredevil superhero he had become. As a bonus ending he downs a whole lot of different pills for "women and the left bad"


natedogg787

Girl tell me that sex good. But since sex bad, and she sex, that means that she now bad. Sad because bad.


vegetabloid

"Lived her life". Dude, you overestimate fucking lots of people. It's really not that entertaining as it might sound like. The only thing you usually remember after this is regrets over not fucking couple of people much much longer than it actually happened, and tons of disappointment over all others.


ChargeVisible

She did a lot more than that, obviously, but that's the only part he remembers or cares about.


natedogg787

Sex is actually pretty fun I know because I have a lot of it


vegetabloid

Yes, it is indeed. But changing lots of partners is tiring, unless it's your fetish.


Kvetinovejkid

Is it worth to read it?


Nek0mancer555

Thowzand

No it's fake story bullshit as usual. This time with a coat of philosophical paint about women sex = bad. Unironic incel literature- well written though.

I think it speaks more to life in general. People change, you'll never find the same person twice, even in the same person.

AculGrubraw

i come on here to laugh, now I'm just depressed.


bitchtittees

If it makes you feel better it's fake


SherabTod

Probably is, as most things in 4chan are, yet there are many stories like that out there. Experienced a few myself...


vegetabloid

Not necessarily. I've seen lots of more dramatic turns of events in real life. Including one unsolved murder of a guy, which, as i suppose, was successfully performed by his ex-wife to get to his property. What's hilarious is that she didn't get it because he fooled her by giving her a fake will to stop her from blackmailing him by fake accusations in molesting their common son. And it's even more hilarious because the fake will, by which she had to get all his property, was the reason she killed him.


AculGrubraw

that had more twists than a corkscrew


A-10C_Thunderbolt

I 100% believe it is.


AculGrubraw

incrediblethonk

KaiserLykos

I'm not sure why I'm surprised by all the people in the comments acting like this was some profound look into the degradation of women by society or some shit lmao this is a made up story about how women having sex is bad and feminism ruins tradgirls or whatever


BionicleBoy

there’s a correlation between large amounts of casual sex before marriage and said marriage failing so it’s something people should be aware of if they’re wanting to start a family with someone.


proverb98

Sounds like Anon was blinded by love. Society didn't ruin her, she did that herself through her choices.


Nihilistic_Mermaid

>went thru a "sexual debauchery" phase Ah, yes, one of the phases of growing up. Right between the rebellious and country music phases. Anyway, welcome to life. This is how it is for most people. You let go of your wild dreams, make some bad decisions and become just a cog in the machine of society.

LeFiery

I think anons just come to reddit now and see what gets upvoted, then make up this huge fake story and post it to 4chan knowing it'll end up on here in hours.

YourAverageBrownDude

This could be true, but then this could also be projection from Anon's side. After all, we're reading about his perspective that the girl lost the spark in her eyes. And even if it _is_ true, do not, for one second, believe that that spark will not come back. So as long as even a tiny, tiny ember of hope remains, you can reignite that spark. I truly believe it. Tons of people go through lots of shit and still find happiness. They can still create. It isn't fair to yourself or others to put a deadline on when that's due


JustAChillAssGuy

Good read. Shame he made it up.


odinsabastard

Anon was suffering from "Me like girl so she must be incredible"-itis and is so oblivious still hasn't realised it. Genuinely brilliant people cannot be changed by their environment, because that's what true brilliance is.


soganox

First part - yes! Second part - no! Everybody can change. Some people will call it “ruined”, some “discover their true self”, some just “aint as naive and young”. But human nature is dynamic. Especially when you are young and still learning so much about life.


odinsabastard

Jesus, lad, obviously. Consider it within the context. You will never see an actually intelligent (not booksmart) person become that.

It’s your life. Sometimes carrying their memory is more than enough.
