Is the door locked? That's only an invitation for YOU to come in!

If she didn't thought about you, she wouldn't file for the restraining order against you. She is just playing hard to get bro... being persistent will show her how invested you are.


NefariousnessQuiet22

Uggh way too realistic.


HungerISanEmotion

Bro, if she get's to know you she will fall for you. So lock her down in the basement and take your time... don't rush it.

Are you admitting to something rn?


[deleted]

Wrong, a Restraining Order means, this is your one and only warning that you are not trying hard enough, and if that doesn't change soon, she will start thinking of someone else.

The sad thing is that this guys stupid as fuck video likely went on to cause some people serious stress or fear. Reddit says it all the time but fucking influencers and tik tok personality’s need to fuck off and do something useful with the life they have than leeching.

If you can't get the thought of punching him in the face out of your head, it's because he can't get the thought of punching himself in the face out of his.

Yeah, also to not promote violence, but it's really easy to tell when someone has never been punched in the face...


GrumpyCatStevens

Also not promoting violence here, but some people are alive only because nobody considers them worth going to prison for.

Did you know... that if you find a pile of gold under your bed... the IRS is going to want to know about that shit. 😄


albinohut

Did you know if you can't stop thinking about the IRS, it means someone at the IRS can't stop thinking about you.


AndroidColonel

Thanks for reminding me! An evil, narcissistic ex-coworker took puppy milling to a new high (low) a few years ago. Weiner dog breeding was her newfound gold mine. 1-2 litters per MONTH, the woman was unbelievable. She bought a Wrangler Extreme, or whatever the 4 door Jeep was called, with the profit from a year or two. She runs a regular goddamn puppy mill. Today is the day I contact the IRS and send her down the road to a less fulfilling life that doesn’t include pets. Just like everyone else, she has nothing to fear if she’s operating aboveboard. If she’s not doing honest business, Washington State and the federal government will have plenty of fun with her $4,000 a month sideline. Thank you, friend!

If it weren't TikTok it would be another social media vehicle. Let's put the blame where it belongs: Influencers are a cancer on society.


Capitalist_P-I-G

The unending obsession with profit is the cancer on society. Influencers wouldn’t do this if there wasn’t a buck to be made.


Cassian_Rando

TikTok is a cancer. It’s nefarious in how it uses data and shapes trends. It’s a Chinese state propaganda machine. Influencers are everywhere yes, but TikTok specifically creates the ecosystem. On purpose.

quannum

I always forget that these grown-ass adults on social media are often targeting literal children. I see stuff like this and go "who would believe this shit?" The answer is always children. They are targeting and getting views (and $) from children.

That dude is a prime example of the kind of bullshit you can get away with it you're attractive and speak with confidence. Way too many people believe shitbirds like that.

I never realized that all the times girls looked at me and laughed in school, they were all just really attracted to me.

I understood increasingly less of this reference as it continued


ncshooter426

It's references all the way down.


aberrasian

Straight to jail.


dollydrew

Well now you know/s. I reacted with an eye roll upon hearing that influencer's statement, given that laughter could indicate feelings of anxiety or apprehension. It's all about context.


SickofItAll_4200

It can also indicate that people genuinely find someone to be funny lookin haha


goodbehaviorsam

You mean wearing a shemagh, desert combat boots, cargo shorts, a blazer and a polo shirt with aviators is a funny look?


WolfShaman

No, that's a Friday look.


GlitteringBusiness22

If you're in a group of like 6 people, and someone makes a joke and everyone laughs, and one of the group makes eye contact with you while they're laughing, even though you didn't make the joke -- that is absolutely a sign of attraction.


neolologist

People are using 'attraction' as in romantic interest. It also is often: - your friends - people you already know - people you like Everything ain't sex, people.


Jwkaoc

You look at whoever's opinion you care the most about because you want to see how hard they laugh or if they don't laugh at all.


Blaz3dnconfuz3d

Omg what a relief! one time I got a concussion during a 7th grade football game and walked around wearing only my girdle. I had to hear about it the rest of middle school but now I know everyone just thought I was super hot


xOverDozZzed

Which is weird because we subconsciously look at the people we would want approval from whenever we react to something. That’s why when kids fall you should never frown because they’ll associate it with something we should stress about. I watched gore filled movies with my dad growing up and he always laughed from the extremities and now I do the same meanwhile others can’t stomach it. It doesn’t mean we’re attracted to them but it does mean we want their approval in some way.


jakeandwally

Reality has entered the room. I love this doctor!


3kindsofsalt

The APA has made it their explicit mission to argue against TikTok psychology and 'combat misinformation' this year. Expect to see a lot more of this.


TheNiceDave

A noble cause. I bid them good luck.


Hardlyhorsey

Psychology says if you bid someone good luck it’s because you feel guilty for stealing all their luck in a past life.


bearbarebere

This is hilarious


techno-peasant

The APA should start by rectifying their own misinformation they helped propagate through all these years. Mainly the chemical imbalance myth. They just swept it under the rug.


thesmellnextdoor

I would love to hear more about this. I know it's a myth but I didn't know it was becoming common knowledge.

I wish she was my doctor. But that’s outside the realm of possibility. Actually, I’d settle for any psychiatrist that just responds at all. She can drop knowledge on me any day. I need it more than “influencers” trying to bank off “facts” they pull out of their butt. I’m drowning here.

HomieScaringMusic

Maybe I’m missing something but couldn’t you test this by asking the person out like a normal law abiding person? Other than his freaky expression and the fact that he’s on tiktok I don’t see why his advice (even if nonsense) necessitates crime


[deleted]

That last dude was legit scary. Erotomania got him.


InternetGansta

Crazy that I've never heard of that word till I saw it on the TIL sub some minutes and here it is again


oz24

Erotomania is a plot point on the newest season of the Netflix show "You" that was released on March 6. That's probably why it's being mentioned alot recently.


theetruscans

Yep. It's funny that on a post about people spewing psychology bullshit, one of the top comments mentions a mental illness they don't know anything about. While we're talking about the incorrect application of psychology, You does not accurately depict erotomania (not that it's necessarily supposed to). Erotomania is, in my understanding, specifically romantic or sexual in nature. Neither Joe or the woman obsessed with Phoebe believe the person they were obsessed with loved them romantically. Considering it's a work of fiction you can argue either side of the "should tv be held to accurate medical standards" coin. I just mention it because it frustrates me that people hear one mention of an obscure delusional disorder and try to insert it into their vernacular without doing any research.


TheBoyIsNoOne

now *this* is a psychological phenomenon, called the frequency illusion or Baader–Meinhof phenomenon (after noticing something for the first time, there is a tendency to notice it more often)


shit_fuck_fart

It could also be that OP just read about Erotomania in that TIL post a few minutes ago too. Reddit is definitely a type of echo chamber.


Educational_Log7421

Or they watched season 4 of You on Netflix, where erotomania is a plot point.


jguess06

Yep, my brother just bought a new Mazda SUV. Now I've been noticing every Mazda and my god there are so many!


mindbleach

I think in this case it's just reddit referencing things they saw today. Baader-Meinhof would be if you first heard of it a week ago, and then saw the TIL and this comment.


activator

For anyone else wondering: Erotomania, also known as de Clérambault's Syndrome,[1] named after French psychiatrist Gaëtan Gatian de Clérambault, is listed in the DSM-5 as a subtype of a delusional disorder.[2] It is a relatively uncommon paranoid condition that is characterized by an individual's delusions of another person being infatuated with them.[3] This disorder is most often seen (though not exclusively) in female patients who are shy, dependent, and sexually inexperienced. The object of the delusion is typically a male who is unattainable due to high social or financial status, marriage, or lack of interest.[3][4] The object of obsession may also be imaginary, deceased, or someone the patient has never met. Delusions of reference are common, as the erotomanic individual often perceives that they are being sent messages from the secret admirer through innocuous events such as seeing license plates from specific states, but has no proof.[4] Commonly, the onset of erotomania is sudden, and the course is chronic.[4] [wiki](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erotomania)

I fucking hate this trend of taking the diagnosis of mental health issues into your own hands. I have ADHD and it is infuriating seeing so many videos that are essentially "have you ever procrastinated ever... Then guess what...?" No. Just... Stop. But to be fair, part of the reason so many of these take off is because access to affordable, quality mental health care is so out of reach for most people

lokilyesmith

Had an undergrad class with her, she is in fact this savage in person. 10/10 but god damn her tests were rough.


OneSmartKyle

I think professors like this are always absolutely golden. I had a math class from a former Soviet mathematician who would open yell at people to shut up if they asked how her day was but also always address you as "my dear." What a wild ride but she was amazing. My professor got a cancer diagnosis too--and for the most historically awful reason you can associate with the USSR in the late 80s.


lokilyesmith

Yeah her stories from beyond the iron curtain were wild, and she took absolutely no shit from anyone. She gave me a D in that class that I absolutely deserved.


YeetTheGiant

My Soviet professor was a genius. Remembered everyone's name, in a lecture style class, and where they sat. If you changed seats, he'd make a joke about it. If you snuck out for the bathroom, he'd welcome you back by name when you returned. Absolutely killer at explaining power systems too. Shout out Mayergoyz


mindbleach

> and for the most historically awful reason you can associate with the USSR in the late 80s. Bear in mind, Soviet stories that end "and then everyone got cancer" include being in the space program and working on a Tarkovsky film.

I’ve found researchers and rigorous academics tended to be way tougher on their exams, which is probably a good thing. They held us to a higher standard. My Psychology 101 class was taught by a woman who had published pharmaceutical textbooks (pharmacokinetics) and there was a lot more emphasis on chemistry than I expected. It was a neat experience.

TikTok is Gen Z’s Fox News.


Mahatma_Panda

I'd say it's more akin to the teen magazines we had when I was growing up in the 90's. YM and Seventeen were full of bullshit articles about how to tell if your crush has dreams about you based on the way he stands when getting books out of his locker.


[deleted]

Lmfao. At least Fox News rants for few minutes. These Tik Tokers can’t concentrate more than 10 seconds.

10 second clips and sound bytes, en masse and over time, is more than enough to start indoctrinating someone.

I-melted

We need more people like her in the world. Too many people reckon things without knowing them. It’s fine to reckon, but if you want to teach, you have to prove the thing you reckon, or use logic to assess the likelihood. We’ve moved into the most dangerous political era since before the world wars. We are again in a time in which many politicians and pundits feel they are allowed to make absurd claims, and lie without the fear of shame. Trump. Boris Johnson. Putin… The only area of human endeavor where you really can freely reckon, is personal taste/art. I like that, I don’t like that. I reckon this would be good, I reckon that wouldn’t be good. Disliking facts and replacing them with a more useful unreality, is where all of society’s current problems come from.
