Who else was waiting for the plot twist? I thought she dumps him because his voice sounds like a drowning pig in panic or so… :'D
After my girlfriend gained the ability to smell, she dumped me. She hates roses now though
How do you suddenly gain that ability? Are there implants for smell as well? Or did they extract some lego bricks that she stuffed up her nose as a kid?
might’ve recovered from long COVID
As she apparantly liked roses before and now does no longer, I read it as ‘she was born without the ability to smell’.
it’s a rare wholesome greentext
I misread the first twist as “she’s dead” and thought anon’s love life just took a turn for the worst.
Missed a perfect opportunity to say something like “prancing pig in a panic”.
or it was some stupid pun all along
If someone is deaf from birth and gains hearing from implants later in life, you whisper in their ear and they can’t see your lips they won’t understand because they have never heard the audio before. Is this correct?
Yeah. Unless she is only partially deaf or had hearing before and lost it, she won’t understand him.
or he may have signed while saying it.
I think it would be instinct by that point.
Good point.
In the beggining he said after a while she noticed or something like that so it means she had partial hearing loss.
I figured that she noticed him visually, a shadow was cast or she saw movement. Anon also said that she heard her mom “for the first time” when she got the implant.
Taking all this into account, while the greentext seems to have avoided the first label of homosexuality, the verity of the story nevertheless has to be put into question.
“I move closer to he”
Anon may be gay too
“a shadow was cast”
Ominous 😄
Yes, but it’s not just deaf from birth people. Your brain has to wire itself to understanding the signals from the implant
How could you possibly know what a visual representation of a sound sounds like if you’ve never had the relationship between the two pointed out to you??
deleted by creator
Reading lips is a visual representation of a sound. A teacher teaching you to read lips is only the relationship between two visual representations. Written word and moving lips. I think my point stands.
Yeah I misread your comment I thought you didn’t understand how a deaf person could learn to read lips, but you were talking about the relationship between sound and lips. Hence why I deleted it immediately. Not sure why you could’ve still replied.
Ah didn’t realise you deleted it. It was in my inbox in sync and I replied directly there.
If your whispered in their ear, then yes, if you’ve never heard English you can’t understand it
I didn’t see that in the post - lip reading would still that gap nicely, as would signing and speaking at The same time
I like to think based on how this story is worded she always had implants but never knew to turn them up
losing the user manual is a bitch
Deaf! Dumb! Blind?
So it’s fake because 4chan. But also it’s fake because even if you’re late deafened you need to learn how to hear after getting cochlear implants.
Also because it’s rare for adults fluent in sign language with a supportive network to choose CIs unless late deafened
what if they’re both fat
the real question is if it’s also gay too.
dont ask me i don’t use four chan.
Also “she gave me her number.” And? Did you call her?
(I guess I’m dating myself here because texting is a thing, but…)
I’m 30 and can’t imagine calling someone in response to being given a number. My entire life my number has been for texting
She would have had to learn to hear, learn to speak. Perhaps she couldn’t understand them, perhaps all the meaning communicated was in sign language
This is fake, but not gay.
Did Anon specify their gender?
CAN I BE OFFENDED ON ANON’S BEHALF PLEASE
Of course you can! This is Lemmy! Being offended for other people is half the posts.
No, I assumed it for a stupid joke.
Oh this is the gayest green text I’ve seen in long time /s
Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
Maybe it was a bit much to ask that during such an emotional moment? I mean, let the woman decide when she has her wits together…
don’t worry, greentexts are fiction
Maybe my concern is fictional, too
fair enough
NO, IM FINE. ITS ALLERGIES.
WHO’S CUTTING ONIONS IN THE HOSPITAL?
I never expect when greentexts hit right in the feels.
Never knowing what to expect is the fun part of reading greentexts.
This is really cute, but the first thing you should’ve said to her is the cheesy pick up line from the day you met her.
“So, as I was trying to say…”
Come here often?
I love wholesome greentexts
She scribbled her number on the note? What number was that?
Phone number
Oh okay
Kind of occured to me Gen Z prolly doesn’t use phone numbers
Nah, we do text. Kinda country dependent actually. In the US, asking for insta or snap instead of phone number is fairly common. But text is also common.
In many countries (mainly south america, south asia, and SEA), whatsapp is most common, and that uses phone number as well.
East Asian countries each have their own thing that not many ppl elsewhere use.
Discord is common among more nerdy ppl.
next time I meet an attractive woman I’ll ask for her Lemmy handle. Let’s see how that goes.
What if we exchanged public keys 😳😳😳
I’m Italian and AFAIK everyone uses Whatsapp here.
Back to email then, the circle of life
As someone who lives in a country where we still regularly use fucking landline, it’s amazing to me how far detached from this shit American Gen Z are

Combination to the chastity belt.
What number was that?
That number was Albert Einstein’s number. Then everyone in the library clapped.
The launch codes
ICQ, obviously.
Aww 🥰
