Women Are Sharing The Absolute Worst Texts Men Have Ever Sent Them, & It’s As Bad As You Think
If men have anything, it's truly the audacity.
If you’ve ever met a straight man, chances are you’ve likely received a less-than-ideal text from them.
Hell, entire Depop Drama-style Instagram accounts (like the painfully hilarious Beam_Me_Up_Softboi) have even been able to build huge followings just from sharing user-submitted examples of the worst messages men have ever sent.

But now we have surpassed the need of submitting our pain to Instagram pages thanks to the ‘I Found A Guy Told Me I Was A Star’ trend on TikTok. Now women are now able to share their own worst texts from men, so that we can just collectively laugh through the pain together.
The trend, which is set to Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘All I Want’, has given women the ability to share all the shameless, horrific, or just straight-up offensive messages that men have had the audacity to hit send on.
Naturally, the whole thing started with people taking the piss out of a happy relationship that used the track non-ironically. The song, which in full is actually all about wanting a good relationship that actually lasts for once, opens with some sweet lyrics before getting sad.
“I found a guy, told me I was a star/He held the door, held my hand in the dark/And he’s perfect on paper… but he’s lying to my face. Does he think that I’m the kinda girl who needs to be saved?”
TikTok user Rachel Wilson grabbed these opening lyrics, just before the talk about lies and deceit started, back in November to gush about her wonderfully perfect relationship. And almost immediately after, other women begun to use the start of Wilson’s audio to show the sad reality for a lot of us not in these happy relationships.
Taking the piss out of the song’s happy, sappy lyrics, women started to use ironically Rachel’s audio to share terrible texts men had sent them to show exactly why so many women are still single.
Of course, these texts were the absolute pits. Ranging from accidental texts from boyfriends, to less-than-ideal-messages from friends with benefits, to random DMs on social media, to truly fearless paragraphs from total strangers on Tinder, each screenshot was worse than the last.
But the juxtaposition of the heartfelt audio with the audacious messages is just so stark, that you really can’t help but laugh. Plus, at this point I feel like all women can do is laugh through the pain because, if these texts are anything to go by, it doesn’t look like men are going to get better anytime soon.
So here are the best, aka the worst, messages men have actually had the balls to send to women:
Honestly, if men have anything, it’s truly the audacity.
