i don't have that many followers on instagram but i have had a few people come up to me and ask like "are you ___? I really like your account!" or like friends of friends recognizing me and saying they're a fan. feels pretty good..

I love chatting with fans. It's great to know people like what you post, and I've met some great friends this way.

Some people take it too far though and don't know when they're stepping over boundaries. I try to be friendly with everyone who talks to me, but occasionally this means a random person I just met will trail me and my friends around the con because I don't want to directly tell them to stop. The worst case was when someone did this for hours on all three days of a convention.

Obviously he’s hoping to become one of the great friends you say you meet and make this way and you didn’t enforce any boundaries or check his behavior, you just let it continue.

Thought process maybe:
She literally says that she loves chatting with fans and makes friends with them.
I could be her friend too if I hang out and chat with her enough.

He looks like a fairly normal albeit dorky dude. He had a funny experience and can tell the story later and laugh about it.

If you would find a similar experience humiliating, maybe practice some self awareness, maybe get into therapy. That kind of thing should be, at worst, a momentary embarrassment to be laughed off.

dude, stop. Momentary and light as it is, you don't leave a high five hanging unless you absolutely loathe the guy. He is even a fan, it's not like he wanted to hug or something, exercise some empathy for god's sake. Don't be THAT person.

It's a high five, you guys are way too emotional about something so small. Is it a little embarrassing? Sure. Is it worth REEEing over the internet about it? Not really.

>Are you for real?
Yes, learn what actually matters in life. A slightly embarrassing event isn't worth dwelling on, you're just going to fuck yourself in the head. Everyone experiences social fuckups. How the fuck are you going to act when your parents die, or if something ACTUALLY embarrassing happens to you in public?

I've had that as well, the guy was friends with some other people I know but he liked my cosplay so attached himself to me for half a day, even going to the same events instead of hanging out with his friends. I'm always happy to hear someone likes my costume and I'm cool with hugs (just not the long lasting hugs from strangers while they whisper in my ear that they'll see me around)

Nayrt but what I saw was a woman who was completely ignoring him and only fixated on herself and her image. I don’t even think she realized what happened until or unless someone told her. There’s no body language there indicating that she’s dissing him or uncomfortable etc. She’s just oblivious.

So do I think she intended to humiliate him? No, something worse. She’s completely unaware of him as a feeling human person to react to and values him as nothing more than a minion or an object, something to just favorably reflect her back to herself.

This is a pretty self-centered attitude. Just because this guy was at her booth doesn't mean that she is required to devote all of her attention to him nonstop. If she wants to read what people in her stream are saying and as a result doesn't notice his awkward high five, so what? It doesn't mean there's some elaborate conspiracy where she treats IRL fans as "props", just that you should maybe lower your expectations and allow cosplayers some space.

I support several people on Patreon, but they all make content, they aren't costhots. Artists, podcasters, comics makers, musicians, writers, poets...they all use Patreon too.

That said, I get why he and the others were mad but her controversy is also old news. She never confirmed the marriage even now.

Even if they don't believe they 'have a chance' the nerd-rage over thinking about their obsession getting a regular dicking by hubs or having to imagine her sucking him off or him touching her would make a lot of them angry. They want to believe she's loveless and lonely and has chosen to only be on the camera with them. Even if they don't 'have her', they have her, sort of?
It's odd and I think it would take a few of them anonymously explaining it for themselves to really understand it better, why they do it, what they get out of watching, interacting with and supporting these women. Obviously it's a phenomenon because these gals are making bank with this type of hustle. I get buying the nudes and lewds, that's always been a thing but her twitch asmr stream was pretty boring. She picked her teeth, her stomach growled, she ate sloppily but not in any kind of sexy way. For the ASMR, she tapped things, made mouth noises and whispered, I did not get any reaction at all and I'm actually susceptible to asmr stimulus. I was watching 30 minutes to see what the fuss was. I was bored.

Unless he has a fetish for it or is there living off her income, I kind of pity her hubs because most of her life is literally streaming for or making content for these guys. The guys in her twitch asmr stream seem to mostly just be lonely losers. They congratulate each other for subbing and welcome new guys in and seem to create a kind of odd, obsessed community.
I was curious so I tuned in. Nothing very provocative in that stream. She's also really bad at asmr but seems to be making about 100-200/hr on her stream alone, not counting Patreon or Snapchat etc.

I've been in the position where I was being followed around a con by someone I had just met. It wasn't a situation where he followed my instagram or whatever though, I was in a maid cafe and he asked me a bit about it. I answered his questions politely and he just like latched on, started following my friends and I around the con, tried to invite himself when he ovetheard my boyfriend and I talking about getting dinner... I get really anxious when it comes to conflict, and it's hard to tell someone to get lost without making a scene. How do you suggest a girl check someone's behavior when this happens?

>> No.10068491

>>10068329
By being firm, direct, polite. ‘It was nice meeting you but it’s time for my friends/boyfriend and I to go get our dinner so I need to go now. Enjoy the rest of the con and have fun meeting everyone else.’
Like that.
A lot of these kind of guys aren’t creepers, they just need stronger cues. Often, they are not as socially as well adjusted, and they are also often very lonely.

If after a polite but firm dismissal he still follows, alert con security and clearly explain the situation. That’s a problem.

"Yes", though I wouldn't say "fans". I have zero presence on social media (no Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, anything). Yet, some people recognized me from previous cons and complimented me.

I live in a region with very few events, and you do get to meet some faces every year, but it still made me feel really happy.
