I think I’ve heard that poem before, it probably went like, “knuckles is red, sonic is blue, would you like to press start and be my player two?”

The guy who splashed petrol all over himself for his 8 year old crush shows determination and stupidity at the same time. I respect that

I was a wingwoman for my best friend once. I encouraged her to write a love poem for her crush. It read: "Here's a squirrel, here's a possum, there's a girl who thinks you're awesome." It did not work.

The cupcake one is quite silly when you hear the thought process behind it, but even if their crush didn't end up reciprocating their feelings, they probably got pretty popular because of it. Seems like a total win in my eyes

Someone I used to be friends with wrote a love poem and talked about his blue eyes. His eyes were, in fact, not blue.

A friend once asked me how to tell their crush they liked them. I, in my infinite 16yo wisdom, told them to present them with a potato, and if they think you’re a complete freak then they weren’t the right one anyway, but if they take it in stride you’re in the right ballpark. Shortly afterwards they brought ME the potato… and I had entirely forgotten the prior conversation. They spent all day having an internal panic about what this could possibly mean and eventually outright told me that night.

When I was thirteen, I wrote some girl I had a crush on a page of sappy poetry where I compared her eyes to emeralds and talked about her flowing golden hair. Only good thing was, I wasn't brave enough to sign it. So I stuck it in her locker. Next class I saw her reading it, I was getting ready to get up and declare I was the author when she called a group of her friends over and they spent a good fifteen minutes reading it outload to the entire class and laughing their arses off and talking about what a desperate doofus the boy must have been who wrote it.

The best thing about most of these is that they're only really cringey because of secondhand shame. If they had worked, it would at worst be a quirky story. But, because they're left open-ended or outright describe the failure, we default to assuming that they didn't work, and it makes us cringe in embarrassment of that rejection on behalf of the redditor.

Made my crush a cgi animated short movie to confess. Ended up being like 6 minutes. We watched it together and she said she liked it but didn't get the point (guess it was too artsy or something). So I just confessed right there by regular means. That was 3 months of work out the window right there.

I have sort of the reverse story. In high school, a friend told me a guy in my class liked me, and seeing as I wasn't interested and had the social skills of a potato, my reaction was to immediately get up, walk over to him at his computer, and proceed to tell him I'm honored but not interested. To his credit, he took it well and I sat back down. But then I wondered if the message really got across because I could never let things go and I have the tendency to be redundant and hammer home every point I feel I need to make, so I got up and did it again five minutes later.

I tried kicking the hat off of my then-crush some 17 years ago whilst we were at work and ended up kicking him in the head by mistake. I was his manager at the time, and obviously very mature and refined.

Not me, but another kid had a massive crush on this girl in fifth grade. On the day before Valentine's Day, he was looking for someone with experience to write a poem for him. Since I was really good with rhyming/poetry, he actually paid me to make a poem. I worked on it for about three hours, and I even made a "realistic" portrait of the girl that, now that I recall, looked like a Picasso drawing. I had to hide it behind a dresser so that my mom wouldn't think that I was the person who had a crush on her. Spoiler alert, almost everyone in the school knew I was paid to make a poem. Fortunately, the person's crush didn't know yet. I gave it to him, and he read it out loud to her in front of the entire class. The amount of disappointment on both of our faces when she started crying and ran out the room. He got rejected, and my poem was garbage. It was so bad that, when I met her again in 9th grade (I was homeschooled in 7th and 8th grade), I learned that she was lesbian. I then revealed that I was the person who actually made that poem, and we laughed about it. We became good friends for the rest of high school.
