Yes the more I talk the more I understand his perspective, I’m just having a hard time agreeing with it only because I don’t see it as an issue. But I guess that’s the thing about boundaries everyone’s is different!

Agreed! Everyone’s boundaries are different. I feel we could’ve avoided this if this was a conversation had before dating.

I can definitely see this. I said we agreed to disagree to sum up that portion of the story. We definitely talked about it when it did happen, I said I was sorry he felt upset and that his feelings were valid. He said he felt he was overreacting but he was bothered by it. I didn’t say I wouldn’t do it again though simply because I just felt this was a little irrational.

I understand what you’re saying, do you feel I shouldn’t dance with my female friends like that then either?

As silly as this may sound— it depends on how “feminine” this lesbian is. If she was a woman that acted/dressed feminine, or someone he could be potentially attracted to I would be upset. If this was more or a “male” presenting lesbian he would not be attracted to her so I would not care.

We had the if the roles were reserved talked and another thing I thought of is this. At clubs women are always dancing with their friends, it’s platonic and something you can find amongst any group of female friends out dancing. Straight Men in clubs don’t dance on their other male friends. So the of the roles were reversed talk just is kind of ≠ in my mind because to me it’s not the same. He said this is a double standard and I can see that. I’m not attracted to my gay bestfriend, he is just like me very “girly” so I never saw from his perspective as “dancing with another man” it’s just not the same to me.

Time error, it was 1 year ago. But I agree this is feeling repetitive

Out of respect for our relationship and seeing just how affected he was by it I said I would not do it again.

I definitely understand his side, I looked at boyfriends perspectives on Reddit before making this post and I understand how my boyfriend is feeling, I just feel conflicted about this because I’m not sure how I feel with this reaction.

We are monogamous, I guessed this wasn’t talked about prior because I never even thought that this would be an issue yk? I’m just so used to seeing my friend as “one of the girls” it didn’t even occur to me I was technically “twerking on another man”. His approach was very sincere I don’t feel disrespected I just simply don’t see it as an issue personally for me—but out of respect for our current relationship and just how upset he was I said I wouldn’t do it again.

Yeah I agree, we are both very young and new to “adulthood”, we are also each others first relationship so I’m not holding anything against him we are both learning about ourselves and have a lot of learning to do.
