Today, I was quizzing a girl at my college, and I noticed that when she answered a question, her ears wiggled. It was cute, so I pointed it out. She burst into tears, and the guy next to me said, "Way to make her feel insecure, douchebag." FML

My exact words were "Hey, your ears wiggle when you answer questions, haha. That's cute." Not the smoothest thing to say obviously, but I guess I should have kept my comment to myself.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Are people really that sensitive?

Tell her you thought it was cute and didn't mean to be a douchebag.

Talk to her and hopefully she'll shrug it off.

My question is that you're 15 years old, how are you in college? Underage genius?

You should go tell her you pointed it out because you thought it was cute. I like gaps in teeth and people who stutter but people think these things are negative. You never know. Next time reword it like " it's adorable how your ears wiggle when you answer a question." If that's what you said then I guess go apologize and tell her you had no idea she was so sensitive.

I don't think he should word it as "so sensitive" he should say he didn't realise he would upset her instead. saying so sensitive makes it sound as though he thinks she was silly to get upset

Awh poor girl she probably just took it the wrong way like you were making fun of her. Explain to her you thought it was cute and she probably will be fine :3

good job by bringing her defenses down, if you know what you are doing you can get in her pants in a week.

Just apologize and clarify what you meant

That happens to me a lot. Someone says something meant to be nice to me, and instead I think it's an insult and become upset. It's some kind of paranoid mind-blindness thing that's actually a trait of my Asperger's. I have to make ask people to clarify what they said even though it makes me feel stupid.

I have Asperger's too, and I totally can relate to you and the girl. I can't see the difference between a joke and an insult, and that's annoying for me and for the people around me :)
