You press the issue but they insist Im not interested while grabbing your hand and putting it on their breast

I dont anymore.

If this kinda thing ever starts happening again (I dont think it will but ...) Im keeping records.

I was more so talking about ... politics, actually.
And the culture we live in as a whole.

I barely watch the news and Im well aware of the accusations against, say, Kavanaugh. And the media around it.
If not, then google it. Or not.

I think he did it, but there's room for doubt in the angle of mistaken identity

I am usually against TC and her ramblings but from what I am gathering here what she is saying is no means no and it's pretty cut and dry about it. Right?

Are you having an argument with smol today donphan?


Hes not even awake rn
I should wake him up to argue with him not really

This is mostly about how people act like women constantly send mixed signals and friendzone when they werent interested to begin with and made that clear as well as using it as an excuse to harm women (re: Kavanaugh)

Seriously, I got ghosted despite what I thought was going well through messaging. Two days of positive conversation and nothing the day after. I messaged twice to confirm and got no response so I took the hint.

Yeah when things are going good it feels crummy to be ghosted

But like if all her responses are haha and ohh and similar (and/or said no) you can probably guess shes not too interested

Yeah that's the thing. She was asking questions and was actually giving complete sentences as responses, but I could kinda tell that any suggestions I was making she wasn't too receptive to. I mentioned that the fall weather is great for cuddling and she kinda sandbagged that. Whenever I mentioned places I liked to go that I'd like to show her, she was evasive.

Oh, also she originally reached out to me, which is a rarity.

Oh well. Life goes on, you keep trying.

Yeah not everything is meant to be, and that really sucks :/ hopefully better people will come around.

Im not saying that rejection is fun btw, just that no one (regardless of gender) is entitled to a relationship with another person.

I mean Ive been rejected maaaany times (more than I can count) and I KNOW it sucks but I didnt run around telling the world how evil they were for rejecting me.

I'll say this..

On more than one occasion, I've hit on girls that acted like they weren't interested at all and would walk away. Then I'd go hit on them again. Then I'd put my arm around them. Later they'd tell me "I like that you were persistent even though I didn't seem interested. That's how I know you really wanted me."

That's why shit is so dangerous and confusing as a man. Some women require you to really take a risk.


Yikes. Women shouldnt do that either.
But if youre persistent and the answer is no you should stop

Idk. My mom said no to my dad and ended up changing her mind. They have been together for a few decades now.

Thankfully, those people are not my type anyway. If this woman I was talking to was playing games with regards to interest, then business is concluded, as far as I'm concerned. To be honest, from what I read of her profile and her responses, I think she's just introverted and was just shy and scared about taking the next step. That's just a guess, though.

To put it bluntly, I'm too old for that shit.

only to later express they wished I pursued them

See, this would be the warning bell for me.

It's one thing to say that you're not interested and then go back and say "well now I'm interested" after some consideration. People change their minds, and that's fine. It's another to flip the onus on the guy for not being more persistent. It frankly shows signs of being manipulative.

I should stress that this has never actually happened to me, though. Any woman I've pursued either went through or was turned down.

No there isnt. Thats just a conspiracy theory conservative pundits floated to try to discredit Ford. There have also been more women who stepped forward after Ford.

What is she doing wrong? I normally dont stick myself in the middle of this dumb CE feud but shes literally just defining consent for all of the people who try to blame it on the victim. Consent is a pretty black and white thing and youre telling her to go away for stating that.

Same. I abhor the idea of being expected to persist. If interest isn't being shown to me, I'm not actually even interested at all, or if I was at first, it's gone very quickly. I'm also anxious and paranoid, so even mixed signals that seem favorable will keep me at a distance.

I just don't bother to try in the first place, and have never dealt with anyone showing interest in me instead.

The dating/mating game just isn't worth the trouble of playing to me (and that's assuming I'm not disqualified by default).
