This is the guy girls will bring up in “Can guys and girls be friends without wanting to have sex with each other?” threads.

'orbiter' has been used since LSUStudent changed his name to LSUZealot after watching 'the pickup artist's on E!

I’d say Kafka Alter to him and wish him well.

The beta guy that white knights?

Did you post this^ because the tweet’s time stamp was in 2019 or because the beta orbiter looks a lot like Robin Williams in Jumanji?
(And did you mean to say “Gear” instead of “Year”? If so, why?)

You see these types even on TD. They will follow the female posters around and defend their honor at every turn. In real life though, they would get smacked in the mouth.

To be fair, in Opelousas they’d likely be stabbed.

Just noticed it said "Gear"
I posted it because I remember reading about Beta Orbiters and White Knights about 20 years ago now.

The saddest thing I ever saw was a guy like this who seemed to worship this girl and was always with her doing her bidding, but she never gave him the time of day. She actually had this guy tell me that she was into me and he did it. She wasn’t bad looking but her using this guy the way she did, probably knowing he was in love with her, showed a character flaw and I actually kind of enjoyed telling him to tell her that she wasn’t my type.

Also called “reply guys” because they’re always replying to their social media posts.
