OP

[(Anonymous)]

I was debating whether or not I'd comment. Most people understood what I was getting at and those who didn't, that was my own fault for being vague.

My group of friends ships me with the "Jeff" in the group, in real life. So I refuse to allow them to label me as a character that I ship with his character because that would give them more fuel to try to push us together. This happens with every television show we collectively watch in which we are labeled as a popular shipped couple from a show. The "Annie" label though seems to be my last straw, because I'm least like her out of all the other characters they have tried to label me as.

From my end he seems to lean into the expectations the group places on us and one of the reason I resent his pushing the Annie label on me.

I know I shouldn't take fictional character labels so seriously, but I worry he's placing real life expectations on them.

I feel you, OP. Your friends have got some serious shipping fever, and the "Jeff" is more than happy to oblige this because this is a chance to land himself a SO without any of the legwork.

Let me guess, almost everyone in the circle has a partner and there aren't many singles, am I right? And the circle probably considers this to be more like tying up some loose ends rather than considering your feelings.

It's time to sink this ship. Torpedo that sombitch. They will probably push back with all sorts of 'buts' "But he's such a nice guy..." "But you should give him a chance..." and all that predictable junk about going against your better judgement.

And if you get criticized with the phase "friend zone" well then you know they were really just "Jeff's" friends all along.
