Hi there! I hope that my post title grabs your attention!
I had this idea that I hope to explore with someone! I want to play your idol, someone you grew up admiring. Growing up I played a lot of soccer, so I was thinking that I could be the captain of the international soccer team. I was someone you admired, watched and maybe even had posters on your wall of as you were growing up. When you made the team, you were so excited to be part of it and you would get the chance to meet me!
The problem was, I was not the kind of person you expected me to be. There were stories of me being demanding of teammates, but that wasn't the problem. I was just unnecessarily rude, I didn't welcome you to the team, I talked poorly of how you trained to the coaches, I would go harder than necessary in practice causing you to take a few falls and despite your attempts to befriend me, I just wasn't interested.
I was the star of the team at the beginning of the tournament and you struggled. I was getting all of the praise from the media and people were writing stories saying that you weren't good enough. As the tournament progresses though, this narrative starts to change. You start to play extremely well, I start to struggle. By the time the final comes around our team are the favorites and the world expects both of us to play well. You star in the final, I struggle. We win, but everyone knows that you have surpassed me.
After the game, you want to celebrate with me, but I'm still being rude to you. You're already the better player than me, why don't you now teach me some manners?

Hi there! I kept this prompt somewhat vague as I would love to discuss it further with you. We don't have to play soccer, I think this prompt could work for any sport, basketball, track, volleyball, even MMA if that's more your speed. I think this could also apply to business or the glamorous world of Hollywood! Let me know what you think when you reach out.
The basic premise is that I am the older, established star. You are up and coming, there is a lot of pressure placed on your shoulders and expected of you. I was in your shoes once, so you think that maybe I'll be nice and help you achieve your goals. I don't, I'm just mean. Despite me actively not helping, you prevail, you become the star you were meant to be. Now, you want to take out your frustration on me...don't be gentle!
If you like this prompt, or my imagination, I would love to hear from you! Please don't jump straight in, I would like to do a little buildup, know what you like and don't like. I would also like to know that you read this far so please include the word "sport" in your first message!
I am happy to receive a chat though I would prefer an orange envelope. Looking forward to hearing from you!
