I recently realized that women, when things risk becoming intimate, sometimes do this shuffle between 'yes' and 'no lol'. It's a dynamic where they're using their consent as a game for their amusement. A women yesterday admitted to me that she enjoyed watching me get flustered by changing her mind about moving to second base.
Have you had this experience? I used to find it cute. Going through the logic of it, I realize that it's toxic and shitty behavior.
Disclaimer: This is clearly not the behavior that a woman in fear for her safety would do. 'No' has a completely different meaning in that situation.
I'm 54 y/o and I've experienced that many times. Then I read the book "The 5 Love Languages" I'll save you the time of reading the book... you can take the online quiz here https://www.5lovelanguages.com/quizzes/ The best way to apply the results of the quiz is to find a woman that has the same love language as you, then the relationship becomes magical!!
As far as women go... when you go running and your foot hits an uneven surface, do you get upset at the ground for making you lose your footing? Nope, you keep on running. What about if it starts raining while you are running? Do you get angry at the weather for making you wet? Nope, you keep on running. Hopefully, when you think about it later you get a good laugh out of it!!
Running, women, life happens. Have fun, enjoy life, roll with the punches...
Hey 4Kingdoms, I wasn't upset about it happening, but rather that our society will defend that behavior as something totally innocuous and harmless.
And yes, my foot might slip on a wet stone and affect my running, but women are adults with the ability to analyze their behavior, meaning that they are still accountable for whatever actions they do. Can't say the same about a slick rock.
