It was weird back in the 90s in the Midwest when metal heads got called "weirdos" for hanging out in record shops, wearing comfy baggy clothes, and rocking band tees. But then in the early 2000s, sappy, emotional pop rock became the new trend. The same people who used to make fun of metal heads started dressing like that teenager in the picture and hanging out at Hot Topic in the mall. It was ridiculous.

Don't worry he has it already. You can tell by the millennial tone.

To me these looks are cringe bc they look like the adults when I was a kid /teen (80s,90s) used to look.

I could never work up the nerve to talk to these girls, and I don't think I missed out on much.

Certainly depends on the individual girl, but this style wasn't called "emo" for nothing. You could have some deep talks with emos.

Obviously, they're not going to open up to everyone, though, and many of them gladly played a bitch to sieve out all the people not worth opening up to. Seems like you got sieved out...
