To the Latina Millennial women who were close to age 15 in 2000: Why didn't a Latina Millennial teen girl start talking to me first like I wanted when she came on the carnival ride that I was already on?

Question

I got on an exciting carnival ride that I wouldn't have had a problem riding by myself.

Turns out, some policy REQUIRED 2 riders to a gondola. I was 15 in 2000, and decided I'd wait for someone to come on with me.

I was a shy teen who wanted girls to ask me out first, so when a Latina girl close to my age came on, I looked straight, maybe turned slightly away, waiting for her to start talking to me by saying "Hi, what's your name? I'm (name.)" Then I would've talked to her from there.

Instead, she yelled something to her friends in Spanish, then told the ride operator she wanted to be let out.

Were Millennial teen boys expected by Millennial teen Latina girls to start talking to them first? Why not they be the ones to talk to the boys first?

And do Millennial men of the 2020s still get expected to talk to women first? Or has this social trend changed and Millennial women can talk to men first? How often?

Can we please stop acting like girls and women are all the same?? 😭😭 We don't know this girl, how the hell are we supposed to know why she did what she did dude? Stop obsessing over a teen you met YEARS ago.

You're a teen once you turn thirTEEN, but yeah still a girl when you're not an adult yet.

Bro, it was a quarter of a century ago: let it the fuck go 🫠

Also, she was a singular individual. None of us is Factory Made from a generic mould 🤦‍♀️

Is this supposed to be a commentary on the posts in this sub? 😭

It reads like satire, but I’m afraid it might not be. 😔

How come this is so ridiculously generalized and so ridiculously spesified at the same time?

Was this 25 years ago and you are still scared? You might need real therapy and not reddit.

If you hire a dating coach, don’t go for one of those whatever-pill incel adjacent pick up artists please - for your own sake, but also for the good of humankind.
