r/AmIOverreacting May 17 '25

🎓 academic/school AIO. This guy from my class NSFW

My teacher told me to socialize more with my classmates. Im a shy person. This boy I sit with started chatting with me then asked me for my Instagram. I was really happy since I dont have many friends.

First day of talking and three messages later I get this. Am I overreacting? Is this some sort of humor I just don't get? I'm not sure how to feel but I don't even feel comfortable to sit with him anymore.

Excuse my broken grammar and the dry humor in the photos provided please :(

This should be reported... this isn't a joke and very disrespectful. I am a mama bear and if a boy talked to my girls this way when they were younger or even now I can't say on here what I would do. He's a deranged boy. You need to tell an important adult authority you can trust at the school and show these texts to them. Counselor or principal. This is considered verbal and emotional abuse and threatening you. He needs to be expelled out of this school forever. I am a mother of three adult children and one is a Police Sergeant. I know it's not right. Been there with older men myself acting this way. Believe me it's not right he spoke to you like that. He may try to retaliate after too...so you need to make them know you need protection so he needs to be expelled. I have had two dvs with men in my lifetime and believe me they start out young acting like this. He needs to understand this isn't funny or right and the school nor you will tolerate it nor should your parents or his parents for that matter. What is wrong with today's youth with no respect with some of them esp to young women. I get it with older men myself but I am done taking it ever again. I hope it all works out and they all take this seriously. Don't let them push this to the side.

Im sorry to hear you have had to deal with stuff like this too,ma'am. Im glad I got the courage to post and get the advice I need from these kind people. On another note you must be really proud of your child for becoming a Sergeant! You're an amazing mom,ma'am. :)

Thank You! I just know and want you to be safe from any harm because I know that the man I was with it started out when he was younger and he held onto a lot of things which in turn caused him to act out and hurt me.

Yes I am so proud of my son and in fact all of my kids.

I couldn't respond to the one guy who said they go to school so how is that possible.

Here is my response to that and sorry it's kind of long.

You need to feel safe and that school needs to provide that for you. The police in that town do too. Your parents should know what that boy said to you and so should his parents. I don't know if he had good parents or if maybe he is having problems at home but he has some issues definitely they need to address. He shouldn't have said any of that to you. It's very concerning to me and I don't know you but I have two daughters who were in high school too. Their brother is very protective of them and of me too. They are grown women now 27 and 32. He's 35. I know you might feel ok now but things could escalate later and you never know with this boy and he needs to take accountability for his words and the rape threatening words. This is total bad behavior and concerning behavior and he's young. I would be so concerned if my son would've acted that way in high school. He was a protector actually. Men should protect women not be aggressive or threatening towards them. This is being aggressive with his words to you and abusive.

Anyway this is what I wrote in response to this other boys comment but they wouldn't let me post in his. Please go tell someone and all of them and make them know it's a serious thing and don't blow it off. Please be safe and get some pepper spray too it's legal here in Michigan. Make sure it's legal and your parents can say you can get some. You might not be able to have it at school I am not sure so ask. But it's for your safety. My daughter was stalked at a Walmart up at school in college too by a young man a few years ago. The same daughter who coaches lacrosse now. Who helped young girls with this kind of thing and still has last year at the high school she coaches lacrosse for here in my state.

Here is what I said to him and whoever. Maybe he could see his dad talk to his mother this way who knows what is going on I can't say or this could stem from his own issues. I know lots of young men are into watching porn too. I was with a younger guy and that's all he did was watch porn and short video clips I think it fried his brain. Well he drank and did some drugs too. He was abusive and controlling. This boy sounds like him to a point. My ex bf went to prison too. I know a lot about bad behavior. I had no idea until I was in it. It was very hard and hurtful and he was so controlling. There is so much I can't talk about. Just be safe. Away from him. Don't let him love bomb you either.

It won't let me post the other thing I will do it separately to the person if I can. Be safe I am sorry you had to go through that behavior and treatment from him.
