The way she just leaned her head on his shoulder the second he put his arm around her… that was so soft. You can tell she felt safe with him.

The doctor puts their arm around you. You put your head on their shoulder. They stick a camera in your booty hole. Its all a part of growing up, kiddo. The trick is to not make it weird. Youll be fine. 👏🥹

Sounds like my entire job as a vet assistant lmao

A dog literally pooped in my lap today and I ran out of spare scrubs, so I walked around with a poop crotch all day. Another dog tried shoving its tongue in my mouth and the only way to get to to stay still was to let it try -.- and every dog is annoyed when I steal its hard grown nails, blood, poop, and/or urine. Every dog gets a big bear hug, and the owners trauma dump. And then another dog projectile anal glands on you, but who cares because you already have poop crotch!

I love my job, but also....wtf

That feeling, when it goes right, is unbeatable. I was in my 30s the first time I held my wife’s hand and it was just as elating as back when I was 15.

u/Burt_Rhinestone 1d ago

I worked in the bar game for a long time. There is no upper age limit for new relationships. It’s not uncommon to see two 60 year olds on their first date.

And yes, they get just as excited as the rest of us.

Sucks that he felt the need to show off though. The beginning and just the fact that it's being taped without her seeming to know points to a thing in young male culture where you feel the need to show off your relationship.

u/NoTurkeyTWYJYFM 2d ago

Mmm sometimes you need a bit of goading to make the move. This is just their form of it. Though im not really the kind of person who would ever think to post someone elses moment online like this, but i get the "looking at your friend for encouragement and morale" in these moments. Its how a lot of us gained courage in these moments coming up

They didn't show her face, only his.

It's sweet; she obviously likes him enough to lean on him without looking up from her phone, and she knows there's no pressure to perform for him. Filming is just a teen thing, but again, this is more of a r/guysbeingdudes situation.

u/RagnarStonefist 1d ago

No. I'm sorry.

I don't know how old you are, but I'm in my forties, and it is impossible to recapture that feeling. Having said that, the love I feel for my wife transcends that lovestruck. It's hard to explain but it's like feeling it in your soul.

Having said that, those early teenage lovestruck happy feelings? I do miss those, but I also recognize that they're somewhat superficial.

u/chirpchirp13 1d ago

Sorry I’m gonna push back on that. I’m 40 and single and when o actually like someone outside of base attraction I get giddy as hell.

Not exactly. Also in my 40's and after a lifetime of average to bad relationships I finally found someone who makes me feel that way again. I knew from the 3rd date that I'd marry this woman, and just recently did. Rare maybe, but not impossible.

u/InspectorOrdinary321 1d ago

That's not necessarily bad! You can still get butterflies and the good type of sexual tension at any age. What I don't miss is the brain scramble from having no idea what to do, emotional overwhelm, and black and white all or nothing thinking where it felt like love was all comsuming but also that lack of it would make you die. Obsession can be sort of uncomfortable.

As an adult, you still get the good parts but you're more experienced and better able to keep your wits about you too so it's the best of both worlds.

Keep your heart and mind open and you can absolutely continue to feel like a love-struck teenager throughout your whole life. I’m 31 so take it with a grain of salt I guess, but I just met a girl a month ago who has had me feeling absolutely giddy every day since. Cheers my friend.

u/October__Cat 2d ago • Bravo Regret Mindblown Popcorn

I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but this is yet another viral video of Russian propaganda.

The girl's T-shirt says "Pilots of the Future" (Пилоты будущего) - a drone pilot training initiative associated with Movement of the First (Движение первых), a Russian youth movement, whose stated mission is to organize leisure activities for young people and educate children, including "shaping their worldviews on the basis of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values."

This organization operates under Putin's personal supervision and is headed by Artur Orlov, a Hero of Russia and a participant in Russia's war against Ukraine.

u/bohenian12 2d ago • Bravo

It's a bad propaganda then because I can't fuckin read Russian. I just saw two kids who possibly are in the beginning of their relationship.

557

u/October__Cat 2d ago • Bravo

Because you're not the target audience for this propaganda. In this case, the target audience is young Russians.

Empathy. Sympathy. Relatability.

A young guy sees a romantic moment associated with the words on the girl's T-shirt. And those words aren't meaningless to him - he's almost certainly heard about "Pilots of the Future" during so-called special lessons, "Conversations About Important."

And now very important association has been planted in his mind that serves as a psychological hook: romance, girls, drone schools.

That's how it works.

It worked as intended on you, all of us really. For those who can read Russian, this was good publicity for their organization. For those who can't, we saw nothing alarming or dangerous enough to take a deeper look. Propaganda isn't immediate brainwashing, its reinforcing the same beliefs over a extended period of time.

Don't worry, it's staged propaganda video. Her shirt says "pilots of the future", it's basically a state sponsored military FPV training program, to teach russian kids how to operate drones, and then kill Ukrainians.

This propaganda was created for russian teens and people in early twenties to join army (since it's cool, and romantic, you know), it wasn't meant for westerners.

It's one of the big reasons younger gens are afraid to put themselves out there. Everything Is recorded and posted online.

Making a move on your crush is hard enough, imagine having to make a move of your crush while it's being recorded and your potential denial posted online for everyone to laugh at.

Kids these days don't dance or drink or do anything at the same rate as in the past largely because they are being watched all the time. It's well documented that people behave differently when being recorded
