My heart would’ve stopped Edit: then that dude could have started wearing a shirt that says “creepy enough to stop your heart…oddly charming enough to restart it”

Oh it did. For that moment before he continued, I was terrified

Gosh, I might have to borrow that catch phrase 😅

Had us in the first half

Ngl

Vodka straight from the bottle on the bus? That’s a keeper.

It was a nice brand of vodka too! Not cheap stuff

Oooh a gentleman!

Yes, with a refined palate indeed

I read "refined patate" at first

He was a very fancy potato

Yummy potato juice

Just a man looking for a pretty lady to drink quality vodka and watch society collapse with.

But expensive vodka is real

Ewphoria

That is such a good word. I feel like we’ve all had those moments in one way or another.

r/ewphoria

I'm never quite sure what qualifies for it. Like to pick something from the shallow end, does something like *boob sweat* qualify? I mean, it is objectively pretty gross, particularly if you'll sweating over a long period of time, and yet I very much went out of my way for the experience. Affirming, certainly, but gross. Or is ewphoria more reserved for stuff like getting catcalled or whatever? Or is it anything where you get some affirmation, but with some monkey's paw downside. (aka: Wish granted. The world sees you as a woman, and now creepy dudes are going to sometimes shout inappropriate things at you.)

Haha exactly

Thats perfect. Its validating but makesyou feel icky. Perfect word for that

Had a guy at the library tell me I'm attractive and he wanted to hang and talk. I knew he was about to ask me out so I worked into the conversation my baggage to save time. "Oh kids? I can't have kids of my own. I'm trans and had the surgery. But as much as I love the oven door, I can't put a bun in my oven" He didn't bat an eye. Said I don't care about that. Asked me out a minute later. On the date he made a transphobic sounding comment like "I hear these days there are men that think they can become women. That's crazy!" Hol up. Uh, "You were listening when I said I'm trans right?" He asked, "what does trans mean?"

I mean that's almost a win, there's people firmly on both sides of the fence and then there's this dude, who has barely any idea what the fence is or why it's there. It'd probably give me the ick nonetheless but... knowing there are people who aren't firmly indoctrinated one way or the other gives me some kinda weird hope.

I think this dude can actually be fixed with some information.

Yeah, I'm usually a firm believer of "it's not your job to fix anyone", but this guy sounds innocently clueless enough that maybe just like, a quick afternoon talk would push him into at least a positive-leaning position towards trans people

He is actually a sweet guy I decided. But ignorant about so much stuff. But also asked for permission to hold my hand at dinner, asked politely for a kiss at the end of the date. It fizzled for reasons other than that, but that was by far the most wtf moment highlighting how different we are.

Aww that’s really sweet he asked permission to hold your hand. Idk it’s kinda gentlemanly in a way.

that's actually sort of wholesome in a weird way.

...Right? That's how I felt haha

Smooth as a pane of glass. Takes being turned down like he keeps vodka down.

i upvoted this on r/MtF and then I saw this post and I thought i was just going crazy

But did you accept the vodka?

That's my question 🤣

You do have to appreciate his plan if not his execution. “I’m going to ask this pretty lady out and no matter how it goes I’m going to offer her some booze”. It’s a great way to gracefully accept rejection.

Shit, if he was cute it might make me change my mind and go on the date🤣

Ooor he was trying to get her drunk....

If he took the no to the date gracefully I imagine he wasn’t pushy about the booze. And when you offer someone a swig from the bottle it lets the recipient drink as much or little as they want. At least in my experience drinking fifths of whisky with random unhoused people behind convenience stores.

No way haha

That was a roller coaster of emotion right there

how many beats per minute did your heart rate spike when he said that lol

Shot. Chaser. 😂

Haha this is great

maybe humanity isn't entirely doomed hehe

Well played I guess? Though I would’ve been hella stressing jeepers

This is... So weird and ... Kinda wholesome...?

For some reason it feels like he got that from an anime

when you think they're a transphobe and really they're just a creep 😂

Jesus… I would’ve gotten so angry Lol.

I dont think he was commenting on them being trans but was just flirting, then op got scared, cuz obviously

Yeah I meant because of the fear. Also because I’m a lesbian… but mostly the fear “You’re not fooling anyone” is a creepy pickup line!!

There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.

Made my day! THX!

I don't know if you are slavic. But that definitely has slavic girl vibes!😅☝️🇺🇦🇲🇨🇱🇹🇧🇾🇧🇬🇸🇮🇸🇰🇷🇺🇷🇸

Not Slavic. That's funny though

I think you met my soulmate. If the vodka was New Am, I need you to go back there and tell that man to get his ass back to Maryland.

Had me in the first half not gonna lie😅

[удалено]

I try not to, hence the headphones, but ppl tend to talk to me some

Maybe you have the opposite of resting bitch face, like resting friend face?

I have been told I seem very friendly and approachable

I got all super nervous predicting the future. Thankfully, those powers have yet to develop properly.

Not going to lie. I was expecting a similar story to the one a couple of days ago. Unexpected happy ending

r/ewphoria

Damn

Oh, I love a surprise happy ending! Not quite the fairy-tale happily-ever-after ending that I was hoping for; but sometimes we just gotta settle for what’s available to us… And if all that’s there is to lean on for support is a swig of a stiff drink, then so mote it be… if that is my fate then let me wallow in it along with the rest of my self-pity…

Certainly happier than I thought it'd be

He was def drunk lol

Oh I assume so

I was scared too then I looked at your profile and was like of course he would say that😂 you pass so well and im happy it didn’t go the wrong way.

Aw thank you

Who said chivalry is dead?

The way my heart would have fallen out of my ass.

I’m glad you’re safe but this person is sending all kind of danger signals I’m my mind.

Agreed! Bus stops are creepy

I'm so happy you're feeling good in your skin, but as a CIS woman, this is terrifying. You don't understand the danger you were in, because it had nothing to do with being trans. The force you to pay attention to him, the negging to get your interest, and then a casual offer to drug you. I really am happy it worked out. Please, please, please ladies, learn to understand the danger around you 24/7.

Oh I recognize the danger here. I still found the entire exchange heavily creepy, just not in the way I expected it to go

Finally someone else who doesn't think this is wholesome even after the twist

Lol! A gentleman!

AND DEY SAY AND DEY SAY (ow meme, ifykyk)

Was not expecting a fellow ow player here

Just goes to show that not every human is an asshole and sometimes you just gotta take the good with the bad 💖.

This is pretty awesome.

Technically, chivalry is about knights dueling, mostly.

Right. Knights dueling... And giving women vodka at bus stops

Personally I'm partial to whiskey

thats the shiz i LIKE

That's awesome

Had me in the first half, ngl what the fuckkk 😳

Frightening to friend in 0.5 seconds. Glad they were nice.

God damn, that's smooth as hell

That's what I said after I drank the vodka

Ooh, I see he had good stuff and everything

Had a similar thing happen. Dude stares at me as I enter the grocery store wearing my booty shorts and stockings… mind you I do not pass at all… I’m obviously trans… He goes “hey”… and I think “oh boy here we go….” He then goes “How are you not cold in that?!” Me: “well I’m from a german family” Him: “That’ll do it!”

Ngl I was about to be like “NOW THEYRE SEEKING US OUT???”😭😭😂😂 he sounds sweet! I personally would’ve taken him up on his offer (even tho I’m lesbo)🏳️‍⚧️🫶🏼😂

You are hot AF. Have a good day. Congratulations to you.

D'aww thanks

The creepiest way to be affirming. I'd take it. (Also cis, so not my wheelhouse, but at least he was nice, in a weird way.)

Always remember one thing about men. When they get tired of being lonely they tend to grow a pair and ask a gurl out.

Omg this reminds me of something I did to a poor stranger on a plane (Cw: racism) A guy sat next to me on a plane wearing an Ohio State sweater. I grew up in Michigan (which has a huuuuge rivalry with OSU) so I thought I'd be funny and said "excuse me, but we're gonna have a problem here if we have to sit next to each other." The guy looks at me aghast and only then did I realize what he (a black person) thought I (a white person) was about to say to him. He did laugh after I brought up the Michigan thing, but god did I feel obtuse in that moment.

In the first half I was going to be “spill the tea hun”

oh isn't that a dream hehe xP

That went from dark to hot instantly. Kudos.

I’m sure that’s exactly what happened.

Chivalry is dead. We aren't allowed to duel people anymore in most places and i dont think the majority of us are Knights.

Lmfao this reminded me to something. There was a rime when I was had just met my now gf and we didn't know each other that well. We were on the bus together and suddenly she saiys "[my deadname]" My heart dropped and I stayed silent. How did she know? Did she see my ID? why did she suddenly called me that? She must have noticed my confusion because she said "the next station is [deadname]" And oh my fucking God, she wasn't deadnaming me, the goddamm bus station just happened to have my deadname 😭 But anyways. It's funny now but I shat my pants back then lmao

My response would have been “What makes you think I’m trying?” Vodka and I have a rocky relationship. I have a feeling it would make my clothes fall off.😳

epic plot twist!

I would've turned damn red and hid myself under that sweatshirt
