Whenever we go out as a group of friends, there is one guy (who I would consider pretty much a best friend) and he will always take a snapchat with the same woman.

Se is very pretty.

He does it as hes a player and wants to make other women jealous.

He never takes one with me.

I'm definitely your plan jane type of girl.

Just makes me feel pretty shit.

Aibu?

(yes pathetic I know)

It is hilarious when someone comes onto a thread just just declare someone is mistaken - when its actually them who are mistaken. Cringe haha

Yeah grown ups cringe about not really getting the details of snap chat!

Someone is getting overly invested in the finer points of Snapchat...

Misses my point entirely...

Lightup - yes, because everyone uses Snapchat and understands how it works, of course!

Google how terrible of you, getting something wrong. How will you ever live with yourself? Wink

So apparently the OP never stated whether it was a 10 second Snapchat or a 24hr thingy. So we don't really know or care

How old are you OP? I'm guessing early teens by your OP. Haven't bothered to read the rest of the thread.

Theres nothing bad about getting something wrong.

Its when you come on acting superior and saying "you're mistaken", when you blatantly don't have a clue yourself.

I think someone must be quite full of themselves to do something like that.

It looks like the OP has cancelled her plan to go out for the day.

light I think you're entirely missing the point of my original post.

Hint: It's got nothing to do with Snapchat.

How very shallow you all sound. Hopefully when you've grown up a bit you will realise that looks aren't everything - they fade anyway, even the best looking women lose their looks.

Well I GET it op. It's like saying out loud ''i want to be seen with her, but you, no'' or ''she'd make me look good, you, not so much''. or ''my friends wout be impressed by her, you not so much''. It has nothing to do with fancying or jealousy, it's just so rude.
I'd leave them to it.

I remember once being on a tube with my flat mate and this guy came up to us and started chatting to us. I didn't fancy him so I wasn't jealous and he told my friend that she was prettier than me. I was so annoyed. I couldn't find the words to express how I felt and my friend thought I was jealous, that some wanker on the tube said that to her. I was furious that a random sexist wanker had somehow entered us in to competition with each other we didn't willingly enter that competition but he wandered up to us and put us in some crappy competition and made her the 'winner'. That's what made me so furious...

you must all be so beautiful that you've never been in the situation where some thoughtless sexist man basically ranks the women around him according to their attractiveness. Even if he's a tosser, it's still kind of humiliating. I find it very hard to believe that every other poster is so impervious to this 'slight' or that they're so beautiful it's never happened to them.
It's happened to me many times and even though the arsehole who's 'ranking' you is not somebody whose respect or affection you want, it's still so awkward.
Once I was with my boyfriend and a friend (years ago) and an acquaintance of my then bf's said ''oh I thought the pretty one was your girlfriend''. Again, I felt so mad! Like, how dare some stranger walk up to us and put us in competition and make me the loser.

If this has never happened to you then lucky you, you're gorgeous, or you're impervious to these slights. Go you. I have good self-esteem as well, I recognise this bullshit for what it is. It still isn't pleasant though. The OP said she felt bad and you all make her feel worse.

I get it, sort of.

If I regularly went out with a group of female friends and the one I'm closest to constantly took selfies of her and another friend, there'd come a point when I got a bit Hmm

Yes, you're being unreasonable. Are you 16, OP?

LosingTheWillToSkate · 14/11/2015 13:36

I don't really get it.

I have friends who love having their photo taken and often take selfies with each other. They all know this of each other so they enjoy it together.

Personally I hate having my photo taken so I avoid it.

All men rank all women in order of attractiveness. Womendo it to. And men do it with other men and women with women. Sonetimes conciously often not. Its not sexist to fancy one women (or man) and not another. Its completely fucking normal!

I, for example, look like a bulldogs arse chewing a wasp. Very few people want to take snapchats, selfies or any other type of pic with me. Its not a shocker.

Plenty of times, but the fact that he is being a dickhead makes his opinion invalid and not worth getting upset about.

I don't base my feelings on what a man has to say about my looks.

It has nothing to do with the op of the thread though as the man here said/did nothing to her, merely chooses to take pictures with another friend, in the same way he probably has coffee with some friends, drinks with others, goes to the gym with others....

I'm a bit worried now.

When I go out (y'know - in public) with DP I don't take photos of us together. Does that mean he'll think I don't want to be seen out with him? Even though I am actually out with him and being seen with him.

I don't have Snapchat but apparently I turn up in a lot of them. People take photos of me ALL THE TIME, even in ALDI (don't like Morrisons) so I must be fucking gorgeous OP.

I'm 50 by the way, not 15 which you sound and I bet I have a better social life than you.

My DD has just said I appeared on her Snapchat last night at about midnight on my friend's "story".

Not surprised your friend doesn't take photos of you, if your persona on here represents you well, you're probably pretty unattractive as personality always outs you.

Why are you so jealous of this other woman? Is it her you fancy?
