See, this could either be a terrible person trying to humiliate someone, or someone who has no idea how to reject someone.

The fact no identification is included in the screenshot supports the latter, the fact there was no sight of the word sorry in that list of words supports the former.

The use of the word "boy" is a bit derogatory, but that's just an acceptable diminutive these days.

Oh well, I guess we'll never know who was evil, and must go on with our lives accepting that every story has two heroes and two villains.

I mean regardless of if the girl is or isn't an asshole how could the guy possibly be one with this information

Well it's weird that with absolutely zero evidence or reason to even suggest that he might also be a dick you just kind of go "oh well maybe he's the bad guy maybe it's her hehe", as if guys are just inherently assholes or something

I am a guy - I have seen guy things.

But please point to where in my comment I say he was a bad guy? I'd love to see it.
