[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I have mixed feelings about this. My daughter was on the receiving end of a very public valentines request and she say no- because she wasn’t interested. She was kind and polite but it was a firm not interested. The boy was not autistic but I guess he is now being a big jerk behind her back. I don’t like the public one-sided displayed because they seem full of pressure. My daughter has never really spoken to this boy and his friends were pushing him along and then got really mean when she did not return the interest.[/quote]

OP
That sounds rough for your daughter.

In the story the mom said her son did not mention his plans to make a grand gesture in public or she would have tried to talk him out of it. She also said she was not mad with the girl who rejected him as it may have been super awkward as a freshman in the cafeteria with all eyes on her. However, she was delighted and heartened by the response of so many other teen girls to collectively ask him to be their valentine and write lovely messages to him. The young man went from being crushed to glowing with pride and has the hand made poster and cards in his room.

It does sound like the young man your daughter rejected was being unkind and spiteful. Sorry for your DD.[/quote]
