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 :(

OP please make sure you do tell both the principal and the police, this a threat and you're in danger around this guy. If you care to update us afterwards you will bring relief to many

I'll make sure to tell the principal and my head teacher on Monday right away. I didn't even know it was this big of an issue and thought it was a joke at first. Im so so glad people opened up my eyes. I was dumb.

Some schools will try to push this under the rug with no real repercussions to avoid any flak. If you don't feel satisfied, escalate, also make sure you tell several different authority figures

(Also 100% he will try to pass this off as a joke, but joke or not, he said some fucked up shit and needs to know he can't do that kind of thing if he wants to be civilised. "Jokes" like this often have a kernel of truth at the centre)
