So it’s fake because 4chan. But also it’s fake because even if you’re late deafened you need to learn how to hear after getting cochlear implants.
Also because it’s rare for adults fluent in sign language with a supportive network to choose CIs unless late deafened
This is fake, but not gay.
Turns out anon is a female
Who else was waiting for the plot twist? I thought she dumps him because his voice sounds like a drowning pig in panic or so… :'D
I misread the first twist as “she’s dead” and thought anon’s love life just took a turn for the worst.
After my girlfriend gained the ability to smell, she dumped me. She hates roses now though
How do you suddenly gain that ability? Are there implants for smell as well? Or did they extract some lego bricks that she stuffed up her nose as a kid?
might’ve recovered from long COVID
As she apparantly liked roses before and now does no longer, I read it as ‘she was born without the ability to smell’.
it’s a rare wholesome greentext
Maybe it was a bit much to ask that during such an emotional moment? I mean, let the woman decide when she has her wits together…
don’t worry, greentexts are fiction
I like to think based on how this story is worded she always had implants but never knew to turn them up
losing the user manual is a bitch
what if we all have implants but never knew how to turn them down?
a screwdriver does the trick, its a one time adjustment though
If someone is deaf from birth and gains hearing from implants later in life, you whisper in their ear and they can’t see your lips they won’t understand because they have never heard the audio before. Is this correct?
Yes, but it’s not just deaf from birth people. Your brain has to wire itself to understanding the signals from the implant
Yeah. Unless she is only partially deaf or had hearing before and lost it, she won’t understand him.
or he may have signed while saying it.
I think it would be instinct by that point.
Good point.
In the beggining he said after a while she noticed or something like that so it means she had partial hearing loss.
I figured that she noticed him visually, a shadow was cast or she saw movement. Anon also said that she heard her mom “for the first time” when she got the implant.
Taking all this into account, while the greentext seems to have avoided the first label of homosexuality, the verity of the story nevertheless has to be put into question.
Hears her Mom for the first time… which means she’s never heard words before… how the fuck does she know what “I love you, please marry me” is supposed to mean? It’s just a jumble of new, incomprehensible sounds…
Being able to read and write doesn’t mean you can understand spoken language, or speak.
Deaf people know how to read lips to understand people who don’t know sign language. Also “hears for the first time” might be an embelishment in the story - lots of people are partially deaf and can hear something, just not enough to understand the words and they revert to lip reading.
Deaf people aren’t necessarily mute, and can often “hear” their own voice.
My relative is deaf and can read lips really well.
I never expect when greentexts hit right in the feels.
Never knowing what to expect is the fun part of reading greentexts.
To much word!
Guy love deaf girl. Girl hearing fixed. Guy say he love her.

Aww 🥰
She scribbled her number on the note? What number was that?
Primary key
ICQ, obviously.
What number was that?
That number was Albert Einstein’s number. Then everyone in the library clapped.
Phone number
As someone who lives in a country where we still regularly use fucking landline, it’s amazing to me how far detached from this shit American Gen Z are
Oh okay
Kind of occured to me Gen Z prolly doesn’t use phone numbers
I just met you, and this is crazy. But here’s my socials, tweet me maybe???
Nah, we do text. Kinda country dependent actually. In the US, asking for insta or snap instead of phone number is fairly common. But text is also common.
In many countries (mainly south america, south asia, and SEA), whatsapp is most common, and that uses phone number as well.
East Asian countries each have their own thing that not many ppl elsewhere use.
Discord is common among more nerdy ppl.
I’m Italian and AFAIK everyone uses Whatsapp here.
next time I meet an attractive woman I’ll ask for her Lemmy handle. Let’s see how that goes.
Nah never, don’t want them to check my entire account history
Yeah, just ask her for her instance and dump her if it’s .ml.
Actually Discord is getting very normie. Pretty much everybody at my uni uses it
They also did at my uni, but it was for group servers for classes, clubs, etc.
It’s not really the first medium of communication when you meet someone.
Back to email then, the circle of life
Combination to the chastity belt.
