I suggest you accumulate all his dirty secrets - nasty photos of him picking his butt, forbidden tiktok, porn sites visited, etc and as his high school PROM gift, post it for his classmates to see. Will teach that little shit not to be so smug. And leaves enough time between prom and graduation for his friends to make fun of him, but not enough to carry over to college.

Obviously you need to talk to her, and if you haven't worked it out for yourself already you ALWAYS need a safe word if you are going to do anything that involves the possibility of you not stopping when you are explicitly told to stop.

I mean, I just don’t think two wrong make a right. If someone does something bad to me, and then I do something bad to someone else, wouldn’t everyone just being doing terrible things to each other? I believe in revenge, but sometimes you have to break the cycle and be the bigger person. (Also pawning things requires an ID and you gotta be 18) šŸ˜‚

I agree with you. I have never heard of a high school allowing students to wear whatever costumes they want. Maybe a ā€œspirit weekā€ with set themes but not random costumes. Seems made up.

If this it true… OP, your best bet is to humbly apologize, reflect upon why you thought this would be appropriate, and switch schools.

After a lot of research and reading tons of posts, I can tell you the best safeword is "Bedbugs". Nobody continues what they are doing after somebody says "Bedbugs", especially near a bed. It is the universal safe word, even if you haven't discussed safe words.

Thank you for reading and your kind words. No she is a different woman from my post history that one is long gone thankfully šŸ˜….

You're correct a true platonic friend wouldn't consider her a potential partner that is something I am trying to work on because it is nice having a friend of the opposite sex to just hangout with, but admittedly it's difficult to not see her qualities and values in such a light because we've both admitted that our qualities and values is what we're both looking for in a partner. She just wants someone to stick around for more than just her body friendship wise if that makes sense.

As for trying to keep boundaries with splitting bills or paying for things she offers every single time without fail to either split or pay and every single time without fail I say "no I got the bill" part of it I think is me being stubborn another part is my upbringing, my parents are really conservative "the man gets the check, opens the door, does all the driving" that sort of thing. I've been brought up being told "the man works a 16 hour shift, but his wife even if she's been home all day watching TV gets a foot rub at the end of the day"

As for why I invested so much in her, tbh she's one of the best people I've ever met. True we met through my ex wife but they are polar opposites, and when things ended with my ex and she found out what my ex did she was the one of the first to say "wow that's fucked up, I'm happy you got out of that relationship" and proceeded to never speak to her again. She's been a great emotional support on challenging days and in a way I think I'm just trying to repay that as best I can.

I will definitely be taking a step back and reflecting on your words and having a conversation with her. I think from now on to preserve the friendship, I think we have to take a step back from supporting each other as much as we do emotionally. And I will do my best to not pay for everything šŸ˜…
