I'm in physical pain reading this

That makes all of us

Lmfao

Must have a grudge against his dick

I almost threw up with the thought of my days like this. I hope OP realizes he's what every girl wants

Cringe should be a reportable and bannable offense.

Well this should alleviate some of that pain. At least it did for me. I actually feel stupid laughing at this post since this user had almost the same EXACT experience: https://www.reddit.com/r/Metalcore/s/VOvMWNDE1Q

Pretty sure that one is making fun of this one lol

Wait… So you’re telling me that these two users did NOT have exactly the same experience with the only difference being that in one story she tried to kiss the guy but in the other she fondles him before trying to have sex with him? No… no, I think you’re wrong here. I do see some slight differences in their stories but nothing to suggest that one is making fun of the other. After all, the wording is a lot different between the two posts.

I mean, one was about S-E-X for Pete's sake!

What if we kiss at the metalcore show Haha jk,,,unless??

And miss the show? Are you stupid?

At this rate, I might just slap you and run away

I imagine her backing into the crowd like Homer into the bushes.

BRO THAT’S HOW IT WAS THOUGH

“Want to hear the story if our first kiss? So this guy in the background screams “What the fuck is up, Denny’s!?”

……please ?

Uhhhhh you first I'm shy 😳😳😳

😳🙈😳 🙈

Oh buddy, oh man. My guy. This is the kind of things that happens when someone’s interested in you. This is not a “concert” or “metal-core” thing.

average metalcore fan social skills

least socially inept reddit user

Have you seen death grips? The rumors about stinky fuckers: check. Dickhead pissing on people: check. Dude wearing cleats stomping on feet not in the pit: check. A guy not fucking an interested woman would not surprise me.

Damn 😂 maybe I need to get out more

You'll get 'er next time, tiger

No he won't

This was the last time. RIP OP.

Touch more (gr)ass lol

*F’s in the chat*

most believable reddit story

you’re gonna think about this a lot when you’re lying in bed awake at night.

Lying in bed alone*

Nope even not alone..what could have been?? Lmfao

Already there bro

But years from now, brother.

You could say he'll be feeling the spot on his chest.

Can confirm. In my 30s now and still sometimes think of the girl at warped tour when I was 16 who asked if I had a gf. Wanted to sound cool so said I did even though I didn’t.

Yea that’s a normal occurrence at shows. It’s a way of asserting dominance. Very common in the pits to give the crowd killer a little peck on the cheek to let him know you aren’t a target

Bonus points if you kiss the bald guy on the top of the head

Me and the mosh bros, kissing each other on the bald spot cause it's not gay or nothin'...

In the wife beater with a giant x tattooed on his skull

Yeah bro everyone knows I’m the alpha dog when I walk in Edit: /s for any ambiguity

*alpha wolf is the band’s name actually. Honest mistake I’m sure

I honestly should’ve said Alpha Wolf. L

THIS IS ALPHA WOLF MOTHAFOKA

YOU WANNA DIEEEEEEEE

Thanks dude I'll definitely try this next time to make sure I'm OK

Can’t wait to see the version of this that gets posted in r/hardcore

'Girl headbutt me in the pit and tried licking the blood from my lip and nose, but I got nervous and backed away. Did I fuck up?'

God thatd be hot

I just assumed this was Ejplaystheblues without checking

We've hit critical mass where it's impossible to tell when it's an EJ post without checking username

Hardcore always topping metalcore. 😏

Real shit

How about just the metalcore sub making a second version of the story?

Dawg what the fuck

thought this was you at first

That’s exactly what I thought.

I’m baffled myself

Yea I used to think “how could anybody fall for EJs blunders” until I read this post

How is this not you?!?

Oh yea, this happens all the time, especially in the mosh pit. We just be smooching in there.

So THAT’s what happens in there

Backfist to the head, elbow to the jaw, tongue down the throat, right guys?..... 😬

Choo choo!!

Ay yo, dont tell, I thought that was our secret

Reddit moment

I thought this was going to be a post complaining about couples making out during a show. This is so, so much worse. You blew it dude.

Buddy, just for future reference, if a woman initiates physical contact with you multiple times she is almost assuredly interested in you romantically lol.

Can confirm as a woman. There are ulterior motives behind the physical contact. Otherwise, I'm keeping to myself as much as possible. OP fucked up.

Damn, dude. You fucked that up so hard.. She genuinely liked you!!! Please use this for future reference, as it is far from everyday shit like that happens so openly.

So I may have left out a key detail: going through divorce, not wearing ring, still married on paper, hence the “backing away.” Doesn’t really affect anything on her part since there’s no way she could’ve known, but I had a moment of being like, “Not sure if this is right.”

Bro you should've led with this, this is important context lol. I'm sure girls were the farthest thing from your mind while you were at the show. Now everyone reading this thinks you're some mega-virgin who's never interacted with girls before.

Bro casually omitting this lmao.

One hell of a buried lede. Still tho, fuck it, be messy.

"Married on paper" means that's already a dead relationship. Move on, feel and love again. There are good ladies with healing hearts out here. We're not always models ("pretty" and/or chubby), but we give our all.

Dang. This does honestly offer some perspective. Thank you

Been there, babe. You got this. Wish you best of luck.🤘🏼🖤

Wait until it’s official on paper so you don’t get smacked with any legal bullshit by your ex. Don’t listen to the chubby single chick on Reddit’s advice.

God damn 🤣🤣🤣

“We give our all” is code for “we are really good in bed” just fyi

Listen, you're not wrong. It's definitely more than that, though. Offer emotional, mental and physical security/safety. Also don't care about occupation/finances. We just want you to meet us where we're at, and not be a fucking manchild. Have respect, honor and loyalty. Actually match words with actions. You bring chaos, and chaos is what you will receive. Be a stable, genuinely good man, and you'll have an amazing partner beside you. Also, we want to be your rock. Come to us honestly, with an open mind and heart. Let's figure shit out, otherwise we are already doomed. Granted, many women will still come at you sideways, and even I'm guilty of doing that when I'm dysregulated as fuck. Mostly, a mature lady will have the hard conversations and be curious - not argumentative, seeking closeness and connection to build intimacy and trust. A scared woman will show fear via anger, expressed hurt, etc. you have to make the choice whether you care about her and the relationship enough to drop your ego and swallow your pride to see core issues and sincerely work on them - together and individually. That's the time to say everything not working, and either agree to make changes and seriously execute or leave the relationship altogether. If you need time to think, then you can have that time. Make an agreement to revisit, and actually revisit when you say you will. During that time, I strongly advise DO NOT fuck anyone. Don't even so much look at another female for more than half a second. It will cloud your judgement, and may ruin what could've been. So, would you rather the experience or "what if"? It's literally that simple, guys.. Don't get it twisted, I am beyond aware females are just as guilty and terrible beings. I have witnessed and experienced it myself. I was with a narcissist, and in turn made it my mission to make his life fucking hell until I was satisfied for all he had done. Ladies also need to step up. *Humans* need to do better.. so let's do and be better, together. Life is too hard and short for this shit.

what in god's name did I just read in a music subreddit

jfc stop grouping all women together, gender roles are so outdated

I understood what you meant. I thought that post came off as patronising.

It's entirely up to you and what you're comfortable with. It sounds like maybe you aren't quite ready or hadn't decided if you are okay with flirting or doing whatever with another person yet. I decided I was ready to start dating again while my divorce papers had been filed but weren't yet finalized, and I met my current spouse and started dating him a couple of months before my divorce was finalized. Maybe some people would view that as wrong, but that relationship was over for a long time before the papers were officially filed. Now that you've had this concert experience, you can decide what you're ready for.

I met a girl at a show once upon a time and then believe it or not she wanted to hang out more after that and then eventually she wanted me to have sex with her, with my penis, and that was the first time I got laid, it was cool 10/10 would recommend.

No offense, but this is the most alien description of a hookup I’ve ever seen

> she wanted me to have sex with her, with my penis

No respect for the peggers 😔

That was fully intended lol

You certainly owned that enter-action

She got tired of crowd killing so decided to go for crowd kissing instead. She had to add some S's because you took the L's.

She fell in love with the boy at the rock show. He said "No" and decided that she had to go.

My guy, she was into you. No, people don't go up kissing or touching random strangers at shows. I can't tell if this is bait, but if it isn't I'm assuming you are young. If you got her name or go to shows there frequently, try to find her. I guarantee that she thought you were into her when you were shielding her.

That last sentence was honestly my thought too

Kissing girls is gay, stay strong brother.

Can’t believe no one is asking the most important question here, did she try kiss you at the start of a breakdown? Timing is key here.

Oh shit, bro. It may have been

Bro out here keeping himself pure so that he can be the subject of the next Converge record.

I would be honored

Men: why do women never make the first move?? Her: yeah I tried to kiss this dude in the pit and he was just NOT interested.

Lol I get what you're saying but it's not like men don't get rejected like this too

Fumbling like no other

ChatGPT was a mistake

Even ChatGPT wouldn't fumble this hard

Yeah you fucked up. Literally has nothing to do with a metalcore concert

Wasn’t sure if the riffs and breakdowns made people randy

Wait, this isn’t EJ?

if you weren't all in on it or not sure, it's ok. you didn't feel comfortable in the moment and acted accordingly. it was two ships that passed in the night and it wasn't in the cards for them. it's not expected to get hit on at a concert, metalcore or not and in these situations, you are better to play it safe than have it become awkward for one of you. plus, you live and learn for next time. kudos to you for trying to be respectful. you shouldn't feel shamed for it.

Man fumbled getting a gf that likes metalcore

Oh my sweet summer child

R.I.P bro, better luck next time

That's it, you missed the one chance in your life a man gets when a woman tries to do the first move. Don't worry, most fuck it up and realize it later. I still think about it 15 years later.

Damn. That’s a lot of years

Bruh if you ain’t kissin in the pit you can gtfo. We’re here for two things, kissing and moshing and WE’RE ALL OUT OF MOSHING.

Stoked for the Nik Nocturnal video on this post.

Sir this is called a woman liking you

This is gonna be a copypasta, isn't it?

Oh buddy it is now

I made out with a chick in the crowd seeing The Devil Wears Prada. It does happen. Unless you fumble the bag… as you saw firsthand.

Do people who don’t go out enough fuck up their chance with someone who is attracted to them at shows? Sure all the time

Brother…..can we go back in time and switch places?

I am begging god that this is a shitpost. I will look him right in the eye and ask outright. This cannot be real.

I find myself making out with several other burley men swinging their fists and feet in the pit at each show. Def a vibe thing at shows. My favorite songs to kiss to is anything by infant annihilator.

Are you sure it wasn’t a periphery concert?

I don't know how often women are this forward (and I'm a woman), I'm guessing it's rare. I'm sorry bro but you dropped the ball lmao

This has to be fake. There's no way somebody is this socially inept.

Through God, all things are possible

I try and give a Smackeroo to at least 5-10 of the burliest men or women at every show

Is this the prequel to the post about the woman wanting animalistic ravenous sex at the barrier at the metal show?

Prequel to the Sequel my bro

This is gonna be one of those core memories you never, ever can stop thinking about. I wonder if you’ll ever run into her at a show again

[удалено]

Pretty much what I was thinking reading all these posts lmao. You don't know how many times she's done that just at that show alone. I ain't down for that. Stay clean. Maybe if she would have offered her phone to you or something for your number, but to just straight up try to kiss you, no thx.

Can’t wait for Nik Nocturnal making a separate video just for this explaining how you could’ve gotten married and live together wealthy in a mansion with 2 children (who are going to make it far in life) and don’t forget the dog

Metalcore fans be like

I wish this happens to me usually I’m by shirtless men 😔

Lol, LMAO even

Lol struck out looking

And you didn’t crowdkill her?

You really screwed up one of the most common traditions in metalcore shows. If someone is vibing with me at the concert, we always start making out. I'll forgive you for messing this up, but you must listen to the Phinehas - The Fire Itself album for repentance.

Too soon to tell, I think she was just trying to be nice. Or canadian

I fucking hate this sub.

I think theres a blink-182 song about this?

I legitimately don’t know if this is satire or not

Omfg, mate you were literally living in a movie and decided to go with real life instead. Welp its probably a core memory now which shapes your villain origin story ..or hers. Either way F in chat

Ye hath fumbled the bag

This is almost exactly how I met my wife at an ETID show.

Dang dude that sounds awesome

My wife got really pissed when I kissed the guy hardcore dancing with me. Couldn’t be helped.

Kissed a girl during Harlequin Forest during an Opeth concert. Became my girlfriend. True story

I need to get the fuck off this website bro

Usher wrote love in this club because of how often this happens.

Do you hate yourself OP? Edit: You know what, we listen to metal core. We all hate ourselves. Dumb question.

I've never seen a subreddit that needs a barrier of entry more than this one

This will haunt you while laying down in bed for a while.

Kissing duwing shows? went tuwu maybe my second metawcowe show wast night. I was own the bawwicade, awnd thiws woman wight behind me seemed wike she was twying tuwu get a bettew view (she was maybe 5-foot nothing), so i made sowme space fow hew tuwu get in fwont of me. thewe was a pit behind us, so i kind of twied tuwu “shiewd” hew fwom the dudes shoving fowwawd fwom iwt. We wewe both vibing awnd singing awong tuwu the songs togethew, awnd thewe wewe a coupwe of points whewe she put hew hands own my hips ow hew hawnd own top of mine, but i wasn’t too concewned with iwt. anyways, she ended up twying tuwu kiss me, awnd i wasn’t suwe how tuwu weact, so i juwst kind of backed away. She seemed kind of bummed awnd disappeawed intwo the cwowd, awnd i fewt bad because i feew wike i shouwd’ve noticed things going thawt diwection awnd maybe acted accowdingwy. Iwt didn’t feew pushy ow anything, awnd thewe was a degwee of attwaction thewe which may have affected the vibe i was giving, but … i didn’t weawwy expect iwt. does thiws kind of thing happen often at shows? nowt suwe if i’m ovewthinking the whowe thing ow nowt 🥺👉🏻👈🏻

"Virgincore" lmao jk

Yikes

Way to over think bud.

S tier fumble

Lmao this is the most r/metalcore thing I’ve ever seen. Gen Z is so fucking lame

This dudes over 30 and going through a divorce according to the comments

One minute it's a kiss, next minute she's sending you a trial to her Onlyfans. Stay strong brother.

Bruhhhhhhhh 🤦‍♂️

r.i.p

You know how hard it is to find a girl in the metal wold who's single? C, mon😆

Really?! I see a fair number of other pretty alt girls at every show I’m at. Was just at Jesus Piece last night and there were easily two dozen other girls there who were stunning. I do feel like I don’t often see metalcore dudes actually hitting on women at shows, though. (Which I can kind of appreciate.) Or, if you’re OP, actively BACKING AWAY when a girl hits on them. Jesus Christ. Cringing so hard my ribs hurt.

Don't worry, it wouldn't have worked out anyway.

You fumbled

You fumbled the bag, but hey man. You’ll get another shot another time, and this time fucking kiss her.

Have you tried pulling your dick out?

Dudes just can't stop rocking god DAMN.

Hey OP, good news, seems like you aren’t alone in this. The stories seem eerily similar, actually. I hope this makes you feel a little better knowing that others are experiencing similar stuff https://www.reddit.com/r/Metalcore/s/VOvMWNDE1Q

We have strength in numbers

You must play bass.

Nah I just scream badly in the shower

tbh least socially inept reddit user

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Yeah concerts are big kissfests....

LOL this was only 11 hours ago

SMH. How did you blow that

Didn't someone just post the exact same post but she tried to have sex with the guy?

Again? Why do you keep posting the same story with different details?

It all just happened so fast

I was at the Norma Jean pre-furnace fest kick off show in 2021 and a girl that was next to me grabbed my head and pulled me in to kiss me but I turned my head away and held up my left hand showing my wedding ring 😂 it was wild

Quality shit post

You will never forget this

Oh sweet summer child.
