Hello Jow Forums, I hope you are having a good day.
I am overthinking something that happened recently and I am wondering if I could get some outside input on the situation:
>be me, 19/F in UK >visiting family in London, get the 3 hours coach home beause it’s cheaper >qt guy opposite me is asleep but doing that head bob thing that looks uncomfortable and makes me cringe >he wakes up a little, I say hello and offer him a jumper to use as a pillow >”I really appreciate the offer, but it’s fine thank you. I haven’t slept in 3 days so I shouldn’t be sleeping anyway.” >”oh dear, where are you headed? Hopefully not far” >we discover we are both headed to the last stop, our hometown, the full 3 hours away >he jokes about putting up with his head rolling around the whole trip >tell him the offer is there if he wants the jumper, I don’t mind >he thanks again and says he will listen to music to try and stay awake
I was messaging my friend asking wether I should ask for his number or slide him mine or something, she said it was really really weird to offer a randomer my jumper. He probably thought I was strange and came on really strong. Since then I’ve been cringing at the thought of it all.
More happened on the journey but I just tried to be nice and not weird to him.
If a random girl did this what would you think? I have very little experience with these things so any advice is appreciated.
Sounds fine to me, I'd be flattered but would probably also decline, simply because I wouldn't want to drool on your jumper.
Also as someone who would catch a 1 and a half hour bus to and from college for a year and has become a pro-coach sleeper, you get used to the head bob, there's no easy way of propping your head up to get comfortable.

depends on your body language. he probably just thought it was a nice offer, your friend is the weird one imo.

>you get used to the head bob I can’t sleep on transport personally, when I see people doing it, I just want to grab their head and hold it comfy lol
We were both sat facing forward with seatbelts on, so I don’t think it was bad body language? At one point I was watching pubg videos on my phone kinda facing away from him, he leans over and asked what streamer I was watching and we had a little talk about twitch and gaming and stuff.
>your friend is the weird one imo. She asked me how attractive he was and implied that he was only talking to me out of boredom.

>He probably thought I was strange and came on really strong. Since then I’ve been cringing at the thought of it all. It was really cute of you, I'd be happy if more women would just speak to me like that. If he hasn't slept for days it was probably not in his mind to hit on women, don't take it as disinterest.

>She asked me how attractive he was and implied that he was only talking to me out of boredom. Your friend is putting you down, telling you you're weird for trying to help and that you may not be good enough to spark real interest in him.

So guys actually think it’s cute to just randomly talk about stuff?
I wasn’t trying to hit on him, I’m just a friendly person I guess. When I was on the coach headed up there, I made friends with a lady who asked me to watch over her baby and toddler while she put their luggage away and went to the bathroom.
The same friend said this was really strange as she didn’t know me well enough to have me watch over her children and that I “could have done anything”.
Michael Russell
your friend doesnt sound very supportive wtf. if one of my girlfriends told me about this while it was happening i'd hype her up till she asks for his number or something. your friend sucks he asked you about the streamer because he was interested in you dude
Andrew James
don't be friends with that person anymore.
Nicholas Perry
Jesus people can be cruel. Your friend is a bitch.
Gabriel Wright
Aw you seem lovely! >he was interested in you dude Honestly, after talking to my friend and over thinking a ton I just kinda panicked and withdrew a lot. We got off at the same stop and walked half way through town at the same pace. He kept looking at me and I didn’t know if I should say something or not so I walked the long way home because I didn’t want him to think I was following him.
I keep having massive cringe urges and feeling really sad when I think about how lame it probably was
Evan Barnes
god this is depressing. that guy didn't want to seem like a creep so he didnt say anything to you, and your friend cockblocked him. you played yourself by having such a shitty friend. your friend is probably uglier than you or less sociable and jealous of you.
Anthony Roberts
Your friend is a bitch.
You literally just did a kind thing. What kind of autistic fucktard is she?
Were you meant to think his head into a comfortable position?
What a dumb bitch.
Jayden Campbell
If a girl did this, I would think it was cute. Give him your number. There's literally no risk here.
Cameron Miller
>If a random girl did this what would you think? depends on whether or not i find her attractive
Levi Thomas
>this is what being a girl having female friends is like Jesus christ, whenever I get bitter about how easy women have it in the dating world I'll remember that they also have to put up with this kind of absolute sociopathy from 99% of their "friends". A guy friend would hype me up about a girl being attracted to me just to give me the confidence to approach.
Lincoln Scott
Update: he found my Instagram and followed me.
What do, Jow Forums?
Andrew Perez
Hit him up. Ask if he finally got some sleep. Check if he wants to get coffee or something sometime Easy as pie
Ryan Carter
He followed you, now you say "hi", and it goes from there...
Connor Brooks
I read the topic and I want this to be a show
>Tonight on rate my austism >You wont believe what these spergs did!
I picture lots of frog image transitions Jim Carrey hosts

>”I really appreciate the offer, but it’s fine thank you. I haven’t slept in 3 days so I shouldn’t be sleeping anyway"
Wait he hasn't slept in 3 days why? Does he use meth? Why shouldn't he be sleeping anyway? If it's a 3 hour bus trip, get some sleep dude.
And yeah I'd be fine with a girl offering me her jumper I would have accepted without thinking I'd drool over it, then I'd drool over it. Opps

I've heard from a British friend that people are less inclined to be social, and I never really believed him. I don't know, maybe it IS a cultural thing but in America if that happened, I'd be fine with it. Especially since conversation ans stuff could make the train ride less awkward.
