I remember having to watch that movie in English class for some reason lol. My ex was actually really obsessed with a teen comedy called '100 girls' it really influenced him a lot? lol. I always thought teen movies were silly, Not Another Teen Movie was my fav as a teen lol
-
I love 10 Things I Hate About You, honestly. It's why it came to mind first. It was based loosely off Shakespeare's The Shrew, which is probably why it was easier to show in english class haha. But yeah, especially in the 80s 90s 00s, Hollywood glamorized HS to an insane level.

Its funny cos I watched a ton of those movies as a kid (I'm showing my age in these comments lol) but I always thought American highschool looked like a nightmare lol. Aus school was so different to what they showed in movies it felt like an another world haha.

There was a lot of pressure to date and have sex tho, but I think that was mostly imposed by my circle of friends, not the guys around me? A few friends slept with someone just to 'get it out of the way' and that was really weird to me.

"Ah, 26 and FINALLY in a good relationship. Inceldom is now a thing of the past" "but you didn't get a boyfriend-free girlfriend at age 17.9 years old" "oh."

'how dare you find happiness, here let me try and invalidate it so I feel better about my own failures.' God these people are awful to one another, how they can call it a community is beyond me.

Can't spell "community" without "mutiny."

It’s almost like they live in a movie world or something, where anything that deviates from that scipt on how things “should be” is some how not good enough.

And like, I’ve seen them rant endlessly about how it’s society that mocks that, but they sort of uphold that stringent standard themselves. Like from experience as a “late bloomer” when it comes to dating, people don’t tend to care my first SO was
@23. The critic was myself.

Yeh - weeping for imagined "lost chances" of the past is a great way of becoming stuck in that past in the present as well instead of focusing of making good of future chances.

I was thinking something similar the other day I read about incels: They talk about resentment about woman and relationships and related but, if one of them gets into one, wouldn't that transform him into his "own enemy" in incel logic? How the hell that works?

Obsessing on the way things “should be” can really fuck up the head. Man, I’m way better at dating in my 30s than younger me was...certainly teenage me.
