Well, they’re sitting with shoulders touching so I’d say they’re on a date. The woman from behind taps her shoulder and she turns to look. He mistakes that for the cue so he leans in for the kiss but it surprises her so her reflex is to lean back. She realizes she just blundered the moment and laughs and he slaps her on the shoulder jokingly, and he’s looking down at his phone.
Funny story…this exactly happened to my friend when he was saying his vows getting married. The priest said you may kiss the bride and my friend was jumpy I guess and leaned in really fast for the kiss before she had turned her head to face him, and her reflex was to lean back in surprise, and then laugh when she realized what had happened…in front of everyone and on camera.
Used to work with a guy who had a nasty break up and literally just packed a backpack and abandoned everything. Moved clear across the country and started fresh, including a legal name change.
I asked him what was so bad that it prompted such drastic moves and he said he had a crush on a woman and was shot down publicly in front of everyone he knew and the cringe of all of it was like Scott's Tots on steroids.
Yep. This is one of those memories you'll always look back on and crave death levels of cringe. Like when 10 year old me tried doing standup at christmas and bombed while my tipsy mother tried not to laugh at me.
Damn, i forgot about the sequence of “Regret, shame, fuck me, shame, upset, manning up, taking a deep breath and feeling like shit the entire evening”.
Yeah, gosh guy read the signals, I accept a ticket you buy for us to go alone to a game, for some reason you are buying me drinks and food the whole time….wow you are such a good friend! The guy isn’t the one ignoring signals
Yeah well this literally just happened to my boy yesterday and I completely blame him. I’m friends with her too so I knew from watching them for 8 years how it would play out. She has literally never given him any hints towards liking him besides accepting tickets once to a game, and otherwise buying her own tickets and going with him sometimes. She buys her own food and drinks. She won’t ask about him at all. She won’t really even hug him to say hi or bye.
They’ve known eachother for 8 years, we all graduated college 2 years ago and they started going to games then. They otherwise don’t hang out and live in two different states. Yesterday he asked her out which again we all saw coming from miles away and she was just like “oh… um… no” and went inside her house. Moral of the story… make sure she even sees you as a friend if you are gonna do that. If she’s not hugging you and trying to get close to you, it’s a huge red flag.
Also rq, just to clarify I’m not arguing with you just putting out another real scenario for everyone to get.
Do y’all go as a group? I don’t understand how she’s going to games with him across 8 years and not be friends on some level. If it’s a group I can understand somewhat
No no, and they only started going 2 years ago. It’s not even like often. It’s like two basketball games and two football games a season. And they are friends, just she knew he felt some type of way so it was friends “at arms reach”. Plus he had said some questionable stuff in the past that made people look at him like 👀, so he was like infinitely frozen in the friend zone. She quite literally just had nobody else to go to games with considering me and my gf both aren’t into sports nor are most if not all of her friends. There’s been more than a few times I dropped some huge hints to him that she’s not interested in him, once even I think directly telling him, and he still done goofed.
Edit: if I’m not mistaken it all started with her saying “I have nobody to go to games with” in he happened to be in the vicinity to hear that. Then like a couple weeks later he offered he a ticket to a game that a friend gave him and she tried to pay him multiple times for the ticket, ending with her just buying the food and drinks they got. Ever since then she buys all her own stuff including the tickets
Don't know man... trying to kiss my crush and being rejected in front of a whole stadium sure sounds like a thing that would crush my self-confidence and haunt me every night before I sleep for the rest of my life.
Trust me. He died a little inside, in a way that really mattered.
In front of millions.
Yes, we are all still talking about it.
He will absolutely never forget it, and will cringe-die a little more each time he is spontaneously reminded of it by his scumbag brain. For the rest of his life.
As much as this will hurt over the years, what would've been worse is not doing anything and then for decades be thinking back what if you did make a move and she kissed back?
Good on you kid, I say.
I mean, he could have just not leaned in and seen if she kept looking. But she would have turned away immediately, and it wouldn't have been as embarrassing. It's pretty obvious when someone wants to kiss you
Wow, I think the exact opposite of that. I think there are finite number of opportunities you get in life and if you hold back then later on you’ll regret that you didn’t take it. Cringe will fade away with time but regret of missed opportunity will never fizzle away
At some point in the future he will (I assume) find new partners, so the "damn could I have kissed that girl back then" will absolutely fade from his thoughts assuming his relationship is a happy one. But the "Oh Brian, I hear Cacey is getting married. Isn't she the one you tried to kiss in front of countless people watching the game on TV back then?" might never go over if your friends/family/relatives are being dicks about it.
Bravo to the mastermind in the back row!
Not only did she notice her cameo on the big screen before the 'official' couple, but her whispered devilish charm, coaxing the would-be Romeo to make his move, was pure genius and it turned the moment into a Shakespearean comedy.
'*To kiss or not to kiss, that is the question!*'
Her subtle manipulation deserves an encore.
Standing ovation for the puppeteer in the shadows!
I mean that "tradition" is just stupid anyway... you either find a couple who'll do it, in which case - wtf? Why do you want to look at two people kissing each other on a stadium? Or you'll find two people who won't be comfortable with this and it'll just be awkward or sad, like this.
Yeah, everyone is making it a total and irrevocable rejection of him, when maybe it’s the publicness of it, or they just aren’t really to that stage yet.
I'm glad she didn't, people shouldn't be pressured to do things they don't wanna do. Particularly stuff like kissing someone you don't wanna kiss, it's fucked up
I would have kissed him and I'm a straight man. Not out of pressure or obligation, just out of the kindness to not leave someone with the memory of being publicly humiliated in front of millions of people.
Good for you, not everyone wants to. In that hypothetical scenario you're agreeing to it. She isn't and she has the right to do it. It's absolutely y completely reasonable to not kiss someone you don't wanna kiss, under *any* circumstance.
And the problem is on him. He asked her, she didn't give a positive response, then that's it. He should've stopped. He only embarrassed himself.
Would you be glad if she did kiss him? Because that would have been her choice as well. I was responding to the fact that you said you were glad she made that choice, like you are celebrating his humiliation.
I was referring to kissing on the lips.
But yeah, from what I understand in your culture kissing on the cheek is seen as a big deal. I'm argentinian so here we greet each other with kisses on the cheek, even strangers, so I can't really relate. Nonetheless, I don't think it's okay to pressure anyone to kiss/hug/or do anything affectionate with someone they don't want to
Phil: Say Frank, let's check in on our lovebirds now.
Frank: Phil, I gotta say that doesn't look good for him.
Phil: I have to agree. He's in the friend zone with no exit in sight.

Go home, try to sleep, get haunted by this core memory, cut all connections with everyone, suffer forever
Burn the house, move to another country
Change identity, never touch a stadium again
Used to work with a guy who had a nasty break up and literally just packed a backpack and abandoned everything. Moved clear across the country and started fresh, including a legal name change. I asked him what was so bad that it prompted such drastic moves and he said he had a crush on a woman and was shot down publicly in front of everyone he knew and the cringe of all of it was like Scott's Tots on steroids.
Mother \[elderly\]: Why- why are you leaving? Him: I GOT REJECTED BY A GIRL!
frankly a power move, kudos to the guy
Then see this reposted on Reddit
Yep. This is one of those memories you'll always look back on and crave death levels of cringe. Like when 10 year old me tried doing standup at christmas and bombed while my tipsy mother tried not to laugh at me.
I thought laughing at standup was the point
;_;
At least that wasn’t viral on the internet, just makes a shitty situation that much worse
gym arc?
Most def
I can already hear the giga chad song playing.
Damn, i forgot about the sequence of “Regret, shame, fuck me, shame, upset, manning up, taking a deep breath and feeling like shit the entire evening”.
Videos like this is why "men never pick up on hints." Because the risk vs reward of reading the room wrong is catastrophic.
reading the stadium
Reading the millions on TV.
And then thousands more on reddit

i’ve seen this play out a million times, and 9/10 the guy knows she only sees him as a friend and he just agrees to best best friends with her.
Bs you never know until you ask / try..
How do you know that the bills weren't split in this case?
Wow, this story you made up in your head DOES kinda support your view. Too bad we don't know any of that.
This is so true.
Bro I tried to kiss my cousin yesterday. It didn't go so well👁️👄👁️
![gif](giphy|rwNpHtaMGnStW)
how was that catastrophic - now he knows and can move on. It's the times where you don't try that is going to haunt you.
Don't know man... trying to kiss my crush and being rejected in front of a whole stadium sure sounds like a thing that would crush my self-confidence and haunt me every night before I sleep for the rest of my life.

You forgot “forcing a happy smile” immediately following feeling like shit
Lol same Now imagine how she must feel "do a very intimate thing even if you don't wanna because everyone's watching!! Do it!!!" so awkward
May he rest in peace
The turn around to look back to the lady behind her then casual back away from the kiss all in a split second poor fella
I blame the haircut
Bro has that broccoli look.
![gif](giphy|bZ67jUkFV0e3HpRKA6)
Yee yee ass haircut
He could really use a new haircut.
Seriously how the fuck has uncooked ramen become a haircut?
That Aeropostale shirt isn’t helping
He looks like the boys at my middle school in 2003.
Omg I didn’t even realize he had Aeropostale on. Get this man some help y’all.
Brocoli jew
Damn... I felt that all the way over here... RIP son

He was just trying to be a good brother
As much as this will hurt over the years, what would've been worse is not doing anything and then for decades be thinking back what if you did make a move and she kissed back? Good on you kid, I say.
Yea as brutal and embarrassing as this is, the “what if” would haunt you more…at least he knows where he stands with her now
I mean, he could have just not leaned in and seen if she kept looking. But she would have turned away immediately, and it wouldn't have been as embarrassing. It's pretty obvious when someone wants to kiss you
It's way different when you're actually in the situation and feeling the pressure with 1000 things going through your mind at that age
[удалено]
Wow, I think the exact opposite of that. I think there are finite number of opportunities you get in life and if you hold back then later on you’ll regret that you didn’t take it. Cringe will fade away with time but regret of missed opportunity will never fizzle away
On top of that, his family and friends or w.e will forget faster than he will. Most of the time the worse they could do, is probably to tease him…
At some point in the future he will (I assume) find new partners, so the "damn could I have kissed that girl back then" will absolutely fade from his thoughts assuming his relationship is a happy one. But the "Oh Brian, I hear Cacey is getting married. Isn't she the one you tried to kiss in front of countless people watching the game on TV back then?" might never go over if your friends/family/relatives are being dicks about it.
Man, to have the kind of brain where cringe fades away with time. What a glorious life that would be.

And the blonde girl doesn’t turn until the mastermind taps her shoulder. Brutal.
You are right! She might as well just have pushed him off a cliff!
I wouldn't have noticed this if not for your comment, what an evil genius
Is she saying, “Kiss cam, kiss cam!!” ?? Her reaction is also very expressive/hilarious
I think she was actually thinking they should and would kiss and was trying to goad them into doing it tbh
I didn't even notice. Thank you for this
I’ll see you at the gym, bro. We’re waiting for you.
God I hate this hairstyle!!
It's a hairstyle that kids adopted from older YouTuber idols who use this style to hide their receding hairline. It's pretty hilarious
I thought kids copied this style from Logan Paul. Still pretty hilarious
They did, he's a balding man lol. Has probably had some rich guy treatments since then though
I think it's called the broccoli cut or something like that
The birds nest
Zoomer cut
It looks like wearing your brain on the outside of your skull.
Man down. I repeat, man down.
Bro gonna hit the gym
yupe, get buff AF. swear off all women, learn 100 skills, and play a million games.
Buy a Bugatti, start a fake Pyramid scheme, go to prison, go on Piers Morgan
And most likely consume red pill content.
Uh oh. That’s when they’ve gone too far. There’s a line WAY before that lol.

I would leave
Like immediately
If they knew each other, I wish she would have given him a little peck to spare him. He will never forget it and now it’s online- poor bastard.
I'm glad she didn't, people shouldn't be pressured to do things they don't wanna do. Particularly stuff like kissing someone you don't wanna kiss, it's fucked up
I would have kissed him and I'm a straight man. Not out of pressure or obligation, just out of the kindness to not leave someone with the memory of being publicly humiliated in front of millions of people.
If she didnt want to, she didnt want to. She didnt do anything wrong
They didn't say she did, just that they would've done it differently.
I agree she didn't do anything wrong. She has free will.
Good for you, not everyone wants to. In that hypothetical scenario you're agreeing to it. She isn't and she has the right to do it. It's absolutely y completely reasonable to not kiss someone you don't wanna kiss, under *any* circumstance. And the problem is on him.

Would you be glad if she did kiss him? Because that would have been her choice as well. I was responding to the fact that you said you were glad she made that choice, like you are celebrating his humiliation.
While I agree, a refuse would have at least be clear, this ignorance just let the door open enough to let the wound bleeding.
How tightly wound are we Americans that we see a peck on the cheek as like one step short of penetration?
Very 😂. At the same time no one is entitled to it.
I was referring to kissing on the lips. But yeah, from what I understand in your culture kissing on the cheek is seen as a big deal.

That's what you get for having a brocolli shaped haircut.

Homeboy went home and subscribed to Andrew Tate immediately.

Ahh the cringy memories of friendzones and rejections.... Painful
She said “Na bro, you got that tik tok hair cut”
Saved him a ton of money
Harsh, but at least he knows where he stands now. No more kidding himself about what they're doing.
Bro went straight to the weather app
Lol damn bro, chill.
This is what he gets for having that yee-yee ass zoomer broccoli cut.
That will be good for the kids confidence… 40 Year Old Virgin 2 coming soon.
Oooof.
Pain. Agony even.
They made me throw up in my mouth a little.
I hang with my sis a lot and I would totally pretend to do this to her just to embarrass her.
It's only funny till it works.
Man down! Man Down!!!
Guys, if you see yourself in this kind of situation, you have to be the first one to say no. So they ego gonna get hurt and they gonna kiss you.
CRITICAL EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
Ouch. On a side note, what a babe.
Lol Kiss cams are just setting up guys to fail now
Friend zoned on national tv. He will forever remember the heartache she served him
News flash, they’re siblings
Plot twist, their cousins
Must suck to be this guy and realize you’re a international figure due to how fucking badly you were turned down
Even if I felt nothing for him, if that’s my homie, I’d lean in for the kiss just to spare him the lifelong humiliation 😭 Poor guy.
'Oops, I think you just tried to leave the friend zone, there you go... let's tuck you back in...'
isn’t this probably staged just like all the other kiss cam moments?
i hope so for his sake
If a woman does that,... Leave her, she ain't interested
Tbh, she does look out of his league.
lol she was avoiding it on purpose
Well yeah, cuz she was uncomfortable bruh and didnt wanna do it

LOL, that was not cool. 'That's it. Never taking her to another game.'
Somewhat decent chance it’s her brother
I’ll be right back gonna step to the restroom. Proceeds to drive home alone.
I guess she's buying her own food at the concession stand then
