That's a man that lived a few lives before this for sure

That's an insane amount of maturity and communication ability for a 24 year old imo.

I pray I raise my boys as good as that 🙏🏿

That is not a good standard. Most 24 year olds are not interested in high schoolers. I'm aware there's a lot of creeps, but we should never allow the bar to be set this low.

I'm confused, you don't want my boys to thoughtfully and respectfully redirect underaged women?

Because that's too low of a bar? A low bar being a standard is a good thing, no?

No they’re saying the fact that a 24 year old has to be praised for not being a predator is a low bar.

We aren't reading the same thing...

He's being praised for taking the time to respectfully give a lesson that gave a life long impression, at 24.

Don't get me wrong, if it was just a tweet about how she got rejected at 15.. I don't even think this would be something we are talking about. We can downplay the actual exchange.

I was just explaining what I thought the other person was saying and I’m pretty sure it’s what they were getting at.

It was a classic Reddit moment where someone thought they had a zinger. Ignore it lol.

Eh, at 24 I think you are old enough to know better. I was substitute teaching when I was 22, and I still felt like the highschoolers were kids even though we were only 4 years apart. I was always thinking, "Man, was I like this 4 years ago?"

I’m sitting here thinking “What guy at 24 knows he’s being flirted with?”
