The bus driver just yelled at me for standing up when we were approaching my stop, he said I had to sit still until the bus stopped. But he didn’t say anything to other people who did this before me. And when I got out, he rudely said that drivers should be thanked before getting off, which I would have done if he hadn’t yelled at me, аnd again, he did not say anything to the woman who silently got out before me. I dont know what it was, maybe he thought I was a kid because I look young, or maybe he just wanted to yell at someone, either way my evening is ruined🫠

    If you’re confident you did nothing to deserve that anger, why worry about some stranger having a bad day? Even more so: why let that ruin your evening?

    I know plenty people who don’t like me and that’s fine. At least, I’m fine with it.

      because it makes me think that I look especially pathetic, stupid, or ugly since he chose me as a target

        You are none of those things.

        You were just in the wrong place at the wrong time and some crabby git unloaded on you.

        You are fine, but he was miserable then and is likely miserable now, and will be miserable in the future…

        While you will be awesome, happy and have a good day, and good friends, today and all your tomorrows.

        Get it? Got it? Good. :)

    Just like you the thoughts would bounce around in my head for the rest of the evening.

    He was probably just having a bad day.

    If you want distraction from the thoughts bouncing for a while I’d love to hear about a pleasant interaction you’ve had with a stranger. I talked to a lady the other day and we shared stories of what furniture our puppies had eaten. Feel free to elaborate as much as you like.

    Ignore him and keep doing your thing.

    When he says drivers should be thanked you reply “only the decent ones”

      And?

      This position stems from my desire to be fetishized, which stems from my depression, as you might have realized from my posts if you scrolled down my profile to this one. Interestingly, a few days ago, another guy sent me this screenshot, implying that I deserve to suffer. So either you posted this here with the same intention as that guy but are afraid to say it outright, and want other people like you, convinced of their goodness, to write me all sorts of nonsense, or there’s some other reason for posting this under a post in which I’m trying to get emotional help that has nothing to do with this. So be straightforward, don’t be a coward.

        I would guess they don’t care for you wanting people (at least those you are interested in) to only find your race attractive. That doesn’t mean they want you to suffer. It just means they don’t like what you said.

        Them sharing it isn’t helping anyone here, though, since your sexual preferences aren’t the topic.
