this is so fucking shallow and gross

[woalwayshenlei-deactivated20190]

Wanting to know how someone views the world and certain groups of people == shallow?

[ouferrat]

HOW DARE YOU JUDGE ME BASED ON MY VALUES AND THE CONTENT OF MY CHARACTER???

[thatfeministkilljoy]

Not wanting to be with someone because their views are incompatible with your own is *literally* the opposite of shallow but okay

in the late 1790s it was in style to wear earrings depicting the execution of louis xvi.

This man won't stop playing the piano until he wins back his lost love

He's playing on College Green and has vowed not to stop until she sees how much he loves her

Ugh what an absolute dick

you’re not a romantic soul you’re an arsehole stalker, fuck off

[lifesgrandparade]

FOUR MONTHS. THEY WENT OUT FOR FOUR MONTHS. Push this guy and his piano into the Severn River I say. 

[stealing-your-kittens]

A couple things that really stuck out to me: 

“I know people in my situation will send flowers or text or write letters but that only ever seems to make things worse. I wanted to do something that she might see, to let her know how much I love her, that she can see it and then take it or leave it,” he added. 

Notice that the things he says will “make things worse,” are largely private gestures. The person delivering the flowers might have some inkling of what’s going on, but overall it’s something between the two of you. “Make things worse,” just means “didn’t get the correct response.” Which is always only going to be yes. 

Interpretation: he didn’t want to do anything she could chose to ignore, as he claims to be doing with this very public performance that he’s clearly hoping will cause those who know her to put pressure on her. Heck, at some point her identity might get discovered/leaked, and then you just know there are gonna be people sending her unsolicited messages about how romantic this is, what a mean bitch she is, etc. 

It’s a kind of off-the-cuff thing, and I just want her to know how much I love her, to give us a chance rather than leave it there. I’m not ready to throw in the towel just yet.”

Okay, but she is, and no amount of flowers, texting or letter-writing is likely to change that. But, then, you already knew that, didn’t you? That’s why you’re going for public pressure. 

Because unless he just grows up and gives up soon, he has to know that’s exactly what’s going to happen.

i hope his fucking fingers fall off

Update: Piano Man stops playing and claims he was punched in the head following social media backlash.
