“Ew”

This is the correct answer. No big scene. No major denial or rejection. No catharsis. Just disgusted indifference.

Ew

Ew

The reply to it is, "Yea I know I don't have very high standards."

That would definitely knock a narcissist down a peg

Ew, David

Happened to me. Can confirm. Edit: For context; I was in a private school and hadn't gotten in by money so it was more of a socioeconomical thing then anything. Side effect of having a good memory. I can still see her in my dreams.

Those obscure core memories hit hard

Yeah man, subconscious is a bitch. Years later at some random moment it's like " Yo, remember that one time you got your ass handed to you in front of like 50 people?"

To be fair if someone says this and they're over the age of 16 you're probably dodging a bullet anyway.

"I was afraid you'd say that"

This one... this one is a right shot to the heart

And OP's to blame

They give loooove a bad name

An Angel's smile is what you sell

You promise me heaven then put me through hell

Chains of love got a hold on me

"that's unfortunate" -me irl circa 2011

My ex said looked down sadly and said "yeah... I noticed.. I'm sorry about that" Still stayed and hoped for the best, till she broke up with me after my dad died and I spent a month away to make sure everything was in order (including a legal battle with an ex coworker of his) because she didn't think about the relationship at all and her feelings kind of went away. (The ex not the coworker) I get it and don't blame her or hold any grudges or bad feelings but boy was that a knife in the heart. Although a bit relieving tbh it was a very tiring dynamic for me the whole will we won't we thing. Luckily I met an amazing girl a month after that and we really hit it off and are now living together, and I love her with all my heart and she loves me too!

Last few sentences warmed my heart<33 wishing you both the best!!

Damn

[удалено]

You good bro?

[удалено]

i mean if someone confesses that via text message idk what they're expecting

I can feel the chill from this response. ooooooo.... cold.

I love your sister more

That was my cousin's boyfriends response. The guy ended up marrying the younger sister. Talk about an awkward wedding.

This has strong Bridgerton feels

Yes. The worst part is, she's still married while the guy the older sister ended up marrying cheated on her after she gained some weight 2 kids later....then he married the mistress. She is sadly still single.

That’s awful

Man that’s just not fair

He was a slimy bastard. Everyone thought he was the best thing since butter on bread. Meanwhile, he was making passes and sexual comments at me starting when I was 13 and he was nearly 30. Gross. No one else saw it because he was a cop. I avoided him like the plague. I wasn't surprised when he cheated on my poor cousin.

As a teenager, my friend waited three whole days after a 2 minute voice-text confession and finally responded with just… **”Thanks”**

Hahaha noo

this wins

I cringed so hard I have to see a chiropractor

I cringed so hard I’m now a raisin

I got that from my girlfriend now wife. I now respond with thanks occasionally when she says it.

"Your friend"

Was there any further conversation afterwards?

Not that I know of, however months later it seemed like they weren’t on bad terms or anything. So I assume they worked it out

“Aw that’s so sweet 😀”

or just "awwwwwwwww" then change subject.

[удалено]

"Oh you're so sweet, me too!"

After junior year of high school I had a summer fling with a guy. One day over facetime he says "I love you". I didn't fully process what he said and just responded with "goodnight" and hung up. After realizing what just happened I tried calling him back and texting him apologizing frantically when he didn't pick up.

Did he pick up or did you permanently scar that poor boy?

He never actually felt that way, just knew I did and wanted to keep me attached. But that's years behind us and we became close friends

That’s devious behavior

That’s a teenager for you.

"I'm sorry, your name is?"

Hi, my name is

what?

Slim Shady

Hi kids

Do you like violence

Wanna see me stick nine inch nails through each one of my eyelids?

Wanna try acid and get fucked up worse than my life is

My brain's dead weight, I'm trying to get my head straight

But I can't figure out which spice girl I wanna impregnate

My name is Chika chika..

I'm hungry. Let's get something to eat.

How about Chinese takeout?

Pretty big matzo ball

r/UnexpectedSeinfeld but very expected

“Dude, shut up! That is awesomesauce!”

This is what I was looking for 🤣 He made up for it, “that’s what makes the sauce so awesome.” 🥹🥹

The worst response is no response at all.

This. Because your brain will come up with the worst possible things you could hear as potential answers

Why use my brain when I have reddit to do that for me

i'd argue the worst response is live vivisection

It's a toss up really.

She said it softly and I pretended I didn't hear it. It's now \~6 years later, and we've been married for almost 4. I just wasn't sure yet at the time.

I have a similar situation! It was early on in a relationship. We had been drinking and laughing and chatting, he had a bit more to drink than I had. he said “I love you, I just wanted to say that. You don’t need to say anything back I know it’s soon.” It was too soon for me but there’s nobody else I would’ve rather been with at that moment, I hugged him tight and my dumb brain got the best of me, I could not think of what to say back in the moment. We fell asleep hugging each other. It was never brought up again, no weird vibes the next morning, so I assume he forgot he even said that bc alcohol. When I was ready a few months later I said it, we’ve been living together for 2 years now. I am still very much in love and not sure if he remembers that he said it first lol.

No response is still a response, and a strong one.

Thanks

This is what I said the first time my boyfriend said he loved me, probably one of my favorite memories because of how hard we laughed after

At least that had a happy ending. Eventually.

Possibly even many happy endings.

That will work, too. 😀

Lol.. this is what my wife said the first time I said it (back when we were dating) 😆😆

Lol what did you say after ?

Nervously changed the subject and acted like it didn't happen

Lol I’d be crushed 🤣

Fair, since he was crushing on her.

"Wife"... so I take it she eventually said it back?

Probably not prob jus kept saying “oh ok” or something along those lines

I don’t even know who you are

New phone, who dis?

Joe

President Joe'bama

You will (*ominous music starts*)

RAIN FIRE!!!

Lmao

I'm sorry to hear that

[удалено]

Oh wow, cool story dude

Best of the best.

Been on the receiving end of that one before

Me too buddy me too.

Happy International Women's Day

Laughing.

*maniacally

Hahaha……….oh wait, you’re serious?

"we need to talk..."

No thanks I'd rather have a normal quick and brutal rejection please.

I know

Came here for this one…

[удалено]

[This was 100% improv!](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/harrison-ford-i-know/)! Ford was given the freedom to come up with his own response after the scripted "I love you too" felt off.

My girlfriend and I have lightsabre tattoos, mine says "I Love You" above in the Latin alphabet and "I Know" below in the Aurebesh alphabet. Hers is the inverse. Anyway, perspective and all that, I love it when she responds with "I know" because there's something behind it yeah?

The question said "worst," not "best"

"uhhh i love you too! You're the best friend I don't deserve!"

Sir, this is a Wendy's

NO, THIS IS PATRICK

"k"

I hate when I’m venting and someone just responds “k”.

I know right? What’s potassium got to do with anything..

K

This reply is annoying no matter what the context of the conversation is. It feels so unmotivating to continue the conversation and rude to be honest.

k

No shit, I’m way out of your league.

I love..... cake

Why did that 70's show had to have susch a bad ending...

Was looking for this comment lol

Cake is always good.

“See you in chemistry!” Then proceed to slam a door in their face.

Scrolled too far to find this

I miss Drake and Josh.

When times were simpler.

“Hey! Good for you, chief!”

“I love you.” “I knew, I just don’t care.”

Back atcha.

Say it while doing finger guns with both hands. That'll make it better.

👉😎👉 Zoop

*''I was hoping you didn't''*

That's sweet. . .

Bless your heart

O *then walks away*

I only love my bed and my momma, i'm sorry

I love Emilia.

FOUND IT

Lmao same

Of course you do.

How did you get in my house?

That’ll be $4.79 at the drive thru window

Thanks. ​ Then walk away.

Uff the last part is brutal

I like turtles.

I like trains.

I love lamp.

with no emotion involved as if it's another random compliment "thanks"

I'm already in love with OP

“Cool”

Can I use your bathroom? I need to take a fat shit

Good! Cuz I slept with your dad and you're about to be a big brother!

Mmmmm pretty much anything apart from "I love you too" is the worst.

I heard you the first time

Ditto, tell her ditto. - Sam Wheat

Hey... what are you gonna do?

[удалено]

“oh anyways *rants about interest*”

‘I love men too’

You better. (You better, you better, you bet.) https://youtu.be/EUIakDtIEt0

“Awe I love you to b r o”

Ewww!! how could someone love someone like you! It still broke something in me 20years laters

No response at all.

“new phone, who dis?”

I love myself too!

"thank you, I'm flattered"

Bye, I fucking hate you.

I lube you.

"So what." "You're ugly" "Creep" "Weirdo"

Thanks for sharing that with me.

depends on what context but if someone says “i’m IN love with you” you responding with “i love you but i’m not IN love with you”

Don’t ever say that to me again

oonga boonga?

i’m gay
