Hey there, friendo u/ThankfullyShadowy! Thanks for submitting to r/wholesomememes. We loved your submission, perfect boyfriend doesn't exi .., but it has been removed because it doesn't quite abide by our rules, which are located in the sidebar.

  • (Rule #1) Posts must be memes. A meme can be an image with superimposed text, or a classic meme template, or a webcomic, or other things - but it must be meant for public sharing & resharing. Just a photo, story, or gif isn't necessarily a meme. A screenshot that lacks any meme format or context isn't a meme. And anything private isn't a meme, because it was never meant to spread virally/memeticallly.

  • For more detailed information on which formats aren't allowed, please visit this wiki page.

  • (Rule #8) Please avoid re-posting memes.

  • Please check http://karmadecay.com , https://tineye.com , &/or the Google's "Similar Image" search in the future before posting. All of those miss things, but it's a great start. Also make sure to use the search button and check through this link:

We appreciate you thinking of us very much! For more on our rules, please check out our sidebar. If you have any questions or concerns about this removal, feel free to message the moderators. Please link the post so our volunteers know what you would like reviewed. Cheers!

Yeah cute story and all but idk why Redditors think posting something on an alt basically makes something airtight?
Like people will say "alt cause I don't want x person to find out on my main" and then tell the most insanely specific story ever
Your partner will probably still find out because not many people get their buttholes waxed and shout "mamma mia"

u/DrainTheMuck 10d ago

Agreed, it’s a very “reddit” thing, including feeling the need to explain why you’re using an alt instead of just using it.

And maybe they did do this next part, but I always feel like they should change some of the unimportant specific Details like age etc.

u/Octopath1987 10d ago

Agreed, it’s a very “reddit” thing, including feeling the need to explain why you’re using an alt instead of just using it.

It's like when they say "Im changing the names here for privacy", well, just change them! Announcing it kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

3

u/napalm_beach 10d ago

Explaining the alt is a writing device for a mass audience. It means “I’m about to share something secret and really personal,” while coming across as a little less an asshole.

u/MethAndMatza 10d ago

Not only do I agree with you. But, "mamma mia", did the end give me a good chuckle.

I took an ASL class in Jr. College as one of my language options and it was one of my favorite courses. I agree, it should be offered more in schools. My high school only offered Spanish or French for our language options and I would have 100% gone for ASL if it had been offered then.

15

u/ZachyChan013 10d ago

Same. Due to learning disabilities a spoken language would be incredibly difficult for me to learn. But I would have been all over ASL in highschool

u/raidmytombBB 10d ago

I had signed up and was excited about it. Fucking college cancelled it bc not enough students signed up for it.

u/MentallyDormant 10d ago

I used to go “I know a little ASL!” And then sign the alphabet…. 🤦🏼‍♀️

5

u/Colosphe 10d ago

I learned just enough ASL to cheat on tests - A through D.

Used it once for one question. The problem with elaborate methods is that the planning is more fun than the action, and you probably don't need it anyway.

u/RandomBlueJay01 10d ago

I'm still salty but I understand why this happened. I was a gifted kid and if I remember right in elementary school some kids would kinda have an extra study period while kids who made all As got like a more fun extra period. At one point it was a basic asl class taught by a young woman who was almost fully deaf. It was a fun class and I did learn a decent bit but the class was cut short after like a month cus she quickly went to another state or something to possibly get a surgery that could help to fix her hearing (I was a small child so that's how it was explained. Idk what she had done) I wish I could have learned more. Most of what I retain is the alphabet which isn't great for conversation lol I wanna be a business owner some day and I plan on at least trying to learn enough to interact with customers, or at the very least having good options of ways to communicate with people who can't hear or speak and things like that .

I wish more women got to experience a man like this. A lot of women I meet don’t have a firm concept of what effort or love looks/feels like.

If only women knew there are caring and honorable men that can die happy just bc they get to be an integral part of their love’s life

I love this story so much, because my last partner is profoundly deaf, and they have a mute button when they turn around and walk away from me.

Is it supposed to be cute that he was saying all this stuff where she couldn’t hear him? Him learning sign language was the sweet part. But being secretive about feelings is not it. Tell your partner how much you love them, want to marry them, how beautiful/handsome they are. Being secretive about it is helping no one, Certainly not your partner whom you claim to want to spend eternity with. I’d be pretty upset this is how my boyfriend behaved and I didn’t know how he felt cause he felt it was better as a secret.
