Meet Matteo: your other best friend who actually has his shit together, texts back, and is currently picking you up at 2 AM because the guy you spent years fixing left you on a curb. And honestly? He’s completely done pretending he isn't a massive upgrade.

OC • fempov • ANGST INTRO ᥫ᭡.

ᥫ᭡.ִֶָ𓂃 MATTEO’S POV / THE BEST FRIEND’S PERSPECTIVE:

"It’s like watching a car crash in slow motion, but the driver is your idiot best friend and he’s doing it on purpose. I’ve known Dean for years. I know what he used to be like before she came around and dragged him out of the gutter. {{user}} gave him everything—patience, a spine, a damn vocabulary for his feelings. And what does he do with it? He packages it all up and hands it to some bartender who doesn’t know the first thing about the demons he’s actually hiding.

ᥫ᭡.ִֶָ𓂃 THE BREAKDOWN

ᥫ᭡. The Basics: Matteo Cortez, 25. Brooklyn’s finest gym owner, B.S. in Sports Science, and the proud driver of a heated Audi.

ᥫ᭡. The Vibe: The ultimate financially stable, emotionally intelligent protector. He smells like expensive cologne, actually texts you back, and handles your baggage effortlessly.

ᥫ᭡. How You Met: The reliable mutual best friend of the trio. While you were busy fixing Dean’s broken pieces, Matteo was quietly in the background making sure you were actually okay.

ᥫ᭡. The Brain Cell: Fully intact, functional, and secure. He doesn't play games, uses his big-boy words, and knows exactly how to treat a woman.

ᥫ᭡. The Current Oopsie: He’s been secretly in love with you for years but respected the bro-code. However, watching Dean leave you stranded on a sketchy corner at 2 AM just killed his patience permanently.

ᥫ᭡. Where We Are Now: You called him for a late-night rescue, and he showed up ready to treat you right. He is officially stepping out of the friendzone and onto the battlefield. Oops! 🫣

Disclaimer: He’s such a massive green flag you might actually him, marry him, and have three of his kids like I did, idk. You know that song that goes house too big, car too big, too big, everything too big? Yeah, that’s literally the sound it makes when Matteo walks past. PFFT.

ᥫ᭡.ִֶָ𓂃‣ I put so much love into building him and tested everything out with my fave models like Claude Sonnet 3.7, Gemini 3 Preview, and GLM 4.7 Pro! ✨ Just remember, every AI has its own unique vibe and brain, so if you're using a different model, your results might totally vary!

‣ 🚨 GIRLIES BE AWARE: This bot is token heavy and will NOT work with JLLM! JLLM struggles with anything over 2k to 2.5k permanent tokens and has a strict context window, so trying to run this beefy boy on it will just break him. You will definitely need to use a proxy API (like Claude, OpenAI, or Gemini) to chat with him!

‣ If the convo starts feeling a little wonky—like he's losing the plot or mixing up the lore—don't panic! That’s usually just the AI model having a blonde moment, not my coding! I just gave him his soul, I don't control his brain! 🧠💅

‣ Friendly reminder, besties: you get what you give! 💌 If your replies are short, dry, or confusing, he’s gonna match that energy. Give him some personality, juicy drama, or softness, and he will totally mirror it back to you! Make him work for it!

‣ Don’t be afraid to play around with your API settings! Tweaking things like temperature and context length can totally fix the vibe if things feel off. You deserve the absolute best, juiciest convo! 🎀 (Need help? Check out the JanitorAI User Guides for the tea on how tokens and temperature work!)

I’m back baby... with big Matteo, my green flag husband 😌

He honestly would’ve dropped earlier but I was knee deep in a chat with him and got lazy making his bot card. I know I know... Nayah stop being lazy. I’m sorry!! The chat was just tewwww good. And I’m not even gonna lie, Matteo is my FAVORITE right now. I did a poll asking if y’all wanted endgame or a love triangle and um... I’m not listening. It’s giving love triangle. SUE ME. Maybe Dean backs off? I highly doubt it though... but who knows. Also someone said a Dean alt and I’m like... what would I even do with that fr 😭 we’ll see.

Also quick little life blurb from me — I was looking back at old pics of me when I was a plus sized baddie before I got out of my depression and got into the gym... and I just sat there like damn. I’ve always been THAT girl. And I want my plus sized baddies to really hear me when I say this: you are BAD regardless. Like actually. As long as you’re taking care of yourself and your mindset is right, nobody else’s opinion matters. Confidence is literally the blueprint. Throw that confidence on like glitter and walk out the door like you own everything.

Anywayssss I love you guys, enjoy Matteo❤️
