this is a straight up lie as i never even stated my age in that post. i only said i have a crush on Brad Pitt who’s 45 years older than me cause he’s born in 1963 and I’m born in 2008, which is how most people simplistically calculate age gaps. again, why lie?
This person’s super sleuthing of your post history is weird and kind of creepy. I believe you, and the other dude’s insistence that you’re a secret 17 year old is bizarre. It’s usually best to leave people like that alone because they are unlikely to concede even if you provided proof.
Also, Brad Pitt is pretty endearing on screen, for sure.
I mean, most people do the actual math and not just calculate a birth year.
really? most people calculate: he’s x years, x months, x weeks, x days, x hours, x minutes, x seconds older/younger than me? in a casual, informal setting? never seen that. even when people talk about an event: oh, WW2 ended 81 years ago (cause it was 1945 and now it’s 2026).
If I were to say that I were 62 years old and you would say that you're let's say 18 years old you wouldn't say that you are 45 years younger then me. No one calculates age difference based on years born.
Uh…you do if you just google a celebrity’s birth year and subtract it from yours, just like a young woman might do when making a random post about her celebrity crush.
Your posts in this thread have been kind of intrusive and inappropriate in my opinion. Maybe it’s best to just drop it. It isn’t that important how she calculates year gaps.
No you don't. You Google someone's age, you don't Google their birth year unless you have something specific you are looking for.
I don’t know how you’ve made it this far in life without realizing this, but other people don’t act and think about things exactly the same way you do. I have totally done the year subtraction to calculate an age gap before, so that makes at least two people in the world who have done the thing that you think is totally inconceivable.
