jaded·m·17

Damn, OP's been jaded ever since getting rejected by his niece at the age of 17.

It adds up

 

[Kevdo]

Uh, I call my brother in law's niece as a niece. How else do you differentiate generational gap in extended family.

You may call her that but strictly speaking, she's not. Nephew/niece refers to the child of your sibling. Your own niece is only two links removed from you: you, brother, niece. The niece of your sister-in-law is twice as far away: you, brother, brother's wife, wife's sister, sister's child.

I would figure most families (obviously not you, here) don't count the extended family of an in-law as their own extended family, but maybe that's just me.

 

[Laughing Banana]

I think you people are being too harsh on the OP now, lol.

Just learn from this mistake, OP, and move on.

[RedAssedApe]

lol...i never realized how creepy harrison ford looked there

 

[Rest]

Brother's wife's niece doesn't mean it's your own niece. Your own niece would be your brother's child. You count your brother's wife's sibling's child as your own niece? Absolutely no blood relation at all.

His brother's wife is his sister in law, which makes her nieces his nieces.

 

[Jpop]

No it doesn't.

Niece/Nephew doesn't carry over with marriage.

 

[Thebeardofknowledge]

We got Blessed by Lionel Mandrake and SunhiLegend. Now OP needs a tag.

 

[watershed]

Why has the OP gotten even creepier since the start of this thread?

Then why are your spouse's nieces and nephews your nieces and nephews?

Holy fuck. This thread is still going strong since last night. I missed a lot. LoL.

Here, this will get you caught up:

For those of you just joining us...

It was the best of times, it was the creepiest of times, as one unfortunate young lady came to realize after a brief encounter with our OP, jadedm17. It all began when the two exchanged pleasantries and agreed to share a meal together in what was certain to be a run-of-the-mill case of an awkward first date.

But then things turned sinister. jadedm17 decided to search online and find this lady on a database, which had her name, address, birthday, and other such fascinating information. Now, jadedm claims that he only did this out of boredom after he coincidentally stumbled over the database the day after meeting this girl. To most of GAF, the timing seemed suspect.

Now, like most creeps, our OP could have gone about his life without anyone knowing about his seedy detective work, but unfortunately, jadedm17 made the classic stalker's mistake-- he let his stalking become known. When the two continued chatting after his search, the young woman asked about jadedm's birthday... Like... normal people do, as opposed to delving into some weird deepweb bullshit. When she heard that his birthday was in July, she remarked that they shared the same birth month.

jadedm17 replied:

Unfortunately, instead of coming across as a cool and charming space pirate, he just came across as a total weirdo. But jadedm17 was quick to explain that he knew through the totally normal and innocent method of searching some strange online database of Florida residents, thus making the second fatal stalker's mistake-- not even knowing just what the hell a woman is, I guess. She quickly retreated to the restroom where she confided to a mutual acquaintance that jadedm17 was creeping her out. Said acquaintance then informed our would-be Romeo that he had totally dropped the ball.

Now, while jadedm wanted to hear similar tales of misunderstanding to ease his mind, instead he was bombarded with what could best be summarized as "What the hell, bro?" Of course, he was quick to defend himself, trying his best to make it seem as if he did a totally normal thing.

...

I'm the only idiot who does weird things, yea, right; Thanks friends.



She was on my mind and has an obscure last name, I was testing the system that even had my apartment number on it.

I don't think about her any more than the several seconds I interact with her at a time each day. The date I gave my number and left at that. No call or texts, friendly at work, that simple.

It's a restaurant so I'm sure I'm fine.

I shared it because I get hyper when I'm bored, it was between lunch and dinner, we were talking and I say dumb things.

We share the same birth month, which I retained, and forgot the rest quicker than the 7 seconds to type her name; The whole process of everyone I searched took less time than microwave popcorn. Care to define what you mean by "effort"? I've spent more time on this thread now than I have spent talking to or thinking about this girl.

The other night I had a dream about a coworker from over five years ago that's never crossed my mind since, any input on that?

And then he said these words for some reason...

My friend years ago had a neighbor had a cat he used to pet. One day he saw it walking home and waited to pet it once it came away from the porch. A few minutes later the mother and daughter came home. "Ill say hi and ask to pet their cat" he thought. Another few minutes they stayed in the car. Eventually the father came out to tell him he's creeping out his wife and daughter. All of ten minutes had passed; He explained the situation. Great guy but this situation he was oblivious to how he was being perceived.

I don't think I'm alone in having strange situations like this happen to them.

My first girlfriend was at 17 and we dated four years. Around two years in I had a roadtrip with a crush (brothers wifes niece) and wanted to make a move. I spent two hours on the phone with my girlfriend breaking up. Minutes later I tried to kiss my crush and got rejected bad. The next few days were awkward.

My girlfriend and I got back together the next day.

My crush greeted me years later at a mall excited to see me.

Im awkward and weird sometimes. Life is akward and weird sometimes. We move on.

Yet, he never admitted to doing anything that might be unsettling.

I left her my number months ago, and on the website only needed her first and last name; We have never talked via number and like her home adress I never retained the information just that I could get the information so easily.

People getting numbers off hotschedules to text someone to pick up or switch shifts is normal though.


Overreactions in response to comments and not based on the info Ive said are clearly proof of that: Such as the posts directly before this one.

The point of the subject was to laugh at my expense so no harm done. Life goes on.

And along the way SunhiLegend stopped by for an accurate recreation of the thread's events...

https://streamable.com/r3w22

So, that's the state of things currently. There's been some brief debate between stalkers and normal people about what constitutes true stalking, a lot of jokes at the OPs expense, and a lot of women making sure that their blinds are closed.

Now, the world waits to see what will happen next. Will jadedm17 make amends with his coworker? Will he learn to respect people's desire for privacy? How do you even use these databases anyway... Like... You know, just out of curiosity. Not to track down former business partners of a failed airline and exact revenge using training and connections obtained after joining the yakuza, or anything like that. That would be silly. I certainly wouldn't do that.... That's crazy. Even if I was a rogue yakuza enforcer-- which I'm not-- I wouldn't do that. It would bring shame to my oyabun. But just like... how do you use these things, hypothetically?

Let's find out...

Then why are your spouse's nieces and nephews your nieces and nephews?

I will just drop the issue and say whatever. Somewhere out there, a woman is in a position of saying 'My brother in law is trying to hook up with my niece."

Except it isn't

Then why are your spouse's nieces and nephews your nieces and nephews?

...because you're married to them. Niece/nephew=daughter/son of your sibling or sibling-in-law. Strictly. A niece or nephew is either blood-related to you or blood-related to your spouse.

Niece/nephew relationship:
You—Sibling—Sibling's kid=Niece or nephew
(or)
You—Spouse—Spouse's sibling—Spouse's sibling's kid=niece or nephew

Relationship OP described:
OP—Sibling—Sibling's spouse—Sibling's spouse's sibling—Sibling's spouse's sibling's kid=...nothing. There isn't a description for it and there's legally no defined relation.


There's a whole lot of creepiness to grab onto here and the OP is making it easy for you all but the focus on this element seems weird to me because it is literally nothing—assuming age-appropriateness.

Innocent looking title + 20+ pages in nearly 2 days = major chance of fuckery and a Lionel Mandrake/SunhiLegend legendary post. God I love these.

Only reason I even checked this thread was because it's ballooned to 12 pages. So glad I did.

 

[Kevdo]

His brother's wife is his sister in law, which makes her nieces his nieces.

It makes the nieces his brother's nieces, not his own.

When you marry someone, you inherit their family. When I get married my wife's nieces will become my own nieces. They won't become my brother's nieces.

I thought the points was that if there wasn't a massive age difference between OP and his brother then he would have been quite a bit older than the girl?

[always crazy bacon]

So far in JadedM17's love stories;

"Co worker asked if I had a girlfriend" - She must like me, can't possibly because of small talk, but let me gather personal information about her from a shady website to give me an advantage in talking to her.

"My female cousin is being nice to me" - She must like me, Can possibly be because she's family, but let me dump my girlfriend of 2 years over the phone first so I'm not a cheater.

Ayyy....you need to stop oversharing.

There are some embarrassing details in one's life you don't need to spill to strangers.

 

[Professor Beef]

People trying to rationalize niece fucking now too

Free tip: don't matter if you tell someone they're an in-law or not, the fact of the matter is they're still family you schmuck

We got folks who don't wash they ass, live in filth and wonder how roaches get it, don't brush they teeth, don't shower and they share that shit like it's normal

Also, don't rationalize stalking or fucking family

 

[Masterspeed]

I can't think of any possible reason why on Earth you'd say that to someone?

I mean, we've all done stuff where we've checked peoples Facebooks and shit, but straight up telling them that you know where they live? Dude, you were so lucky she thought it was just a little weird because some people can overblow things.

[Astral Dog]

You are not supposed to tell her

 

[big ander]

I thought the points was that if there wasn't a massive age difference between OP and his brother then he would have been quite a bit older than the girl?

I mean OP would have to explain this themselves but there are so many ways they could be close in age. like, so so many.


We can even narrow the possibilities and assume "standard" ages, e.g. nobody having a kid at 15 or nobody having a sibling significantly older or younger than them. Under those conditions...
OP=19.
Implication is that the brother is some amount older, let's take 2 years as the minimum and 10 as the max. OP's brother=21–29
OP's bro could've married anybody (of legal age), but let's say the age difference is 7 years at most. OP's SIL=18–36.
Sibling relationship again. Let's again assume this person is a legal adult and isn't a gigantic amount older. OP's SIL's sibling could be as old as 46. I guess under these rules they could also be as young as 18—but you see how extremely possible it is for OP's SIL's sibling's kid to be close to them in age, right?

No it makes her his niece law aka his neice.

No it doesn't. Niece in law is not a thing. even if it were, it would be niece in law. not niece. Niece in law is a far more distant relationship and by definition has zero blood relation

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Damn. I can't even imagine what her face looked like when he said that.

 

[Ronin Ray]

Wow came back and the thread got better and the OP got creepier. Gaf needs a thread hall of fame and this needs to go in it.

Also your beyond a creep trying to go after your sister in law's kids and people here are trying to defend it because your not blood related smh.

 

[Linsies]

I think, as people have said, the weirdest part about this is that he told her he did it. Sometimes honesty is not the best policy. I am a woman and have googled people for different reasons, none of them for sexual or romantic purposes. I assume a lot of people do the same, with public information the way it is now.

OP thinks his only fault was being "hyper" when he talks. Dude is hyper when he stalks.

This part bothers me. I hate when people blame their behavior on being hyper. First, I don't think I've been hyper as an adult, ever. Second, being hyper is not a reason to be creepy or admit you googled a coworker you hardly know.

This is amazing.

I share too much , I like open discussion and learning. This girl I talk to at work all the time, she usually asks me questions randomly, and from asking me if i had a girlfriend minutes after meeting Id assumed our communication was direct and open.

Hyper isnt the right word but definitely overactive and chatty. Sometimes - like now - that means sharing too much. Its not an excuse but its definitely part of my wiring I battle with daily. We all have things wired in us that guide us poorly.

[big ander]

The distance of the relation between a person and their sil's niece really has just gone over most of your heads—I get it, Hangover funny movie, gif make joke, therefore fact

I'm only harping on it because I think the weird and hilarious part is that op, based on what was most likely just cordiality:
-broke up with his girlfriend of two years over the phone
-tried to kiss a distant family member and got rejected
-had to spend the remainder of a road trip vacation with that distant family member
-all at age nineteen. as an adult human.
