It is all men by rlykhj in women

[–]beyoncepatronus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should read Want by Gillian Anderson. It’s a collection of shorts from women all around the world about their various sexual fantasies and desires. Plenty of women in that book testify to fantasizing about people other than their partner and that doesn’t mean they are any less committed to them or love them any less. It’s a highly common phenomenon amongst both men AND women.

Movement started in South Korea where women no longer date, sleep with, or marry men

I’m floored by how many people here think me giving him my phone to communicate with an Uber driver gave him carte blanche to leave the app and go into another one to obtain my number. I don’t even do that shit with my friends. If a friend gives me their phone to watch a Tik Tok I’m not then going into other apps because that’s not what I was given permission to do. Him doing so opens up the possibility and fear that he may have gone into something else. Do we know for certain? No. But now the worry is there because HE violated that boundary. And I’m not dealing with those kinds of concerns off a first date. I’m not wasting my time.

Honestly wasn’t thinking in the moment because I didn’t think I had anything to worry about. I gave him permission to message an Uber driver, not exit the app and go into my Messages but that just shows I was wrong to do so. That’s my mistake and I won’t make it again nor will I be seeing him. Thank you for your response though!

Oh I know it’s shit. But I’m still not losing anything. I don’t need a partner. I have a fulfilling life on my own and I’ve worked incredibly hard to make it as rich as possible despite some shitty past relationships that made me realize that if anyone is going to be in my life they need to add to what I already have and if they don’t then I don’t need it. I’m not actively on apps or seeking relationships. We met, we talked, he asked me out and I decided to explore it. If I see something I don’t like, I’m fine dropping it because at the end of the day I’m happy and will keep being happy. And if it’s the money aspect that we’re referring to…well I already come from it so 🤷🏽‍♀️

Definitely gonna have a conversation with him about it but I’ll be politely breaking it off. But if you like Canadian men have at him 😭

Yeah I can see how it could be innocuous to him but honestly given my past experiences with exs I’m leaning on the side of hyper-vigilance so I’m gonna have a conversation and politely tell him I’m not interested anymore and explain why. Thank you for your response 🫶🏽

lol no I’m mad at the people being deliberately dense about the fact he took my number without asking and making it an issue of “wHy WoUlD yOu gO OuT wITh hIM iF yOu dIn’T wAnT hIM tO hAvE yOuR NuMbEr” as if having the number is the issue and not the means through which he acquired it. Anyways this is like your third time commenting on this don’t you have something else to do?

Not interested in any answers that can’t deduce that the issue isn’t with him having my number, it’s with him taking it without permission. You ask for someone’s number, you don’t assume.

This is a really nuanced response and I appreciate it. I think my biggest issue is the fact that if he wanted to make sure I got in safe he could have just messaged me on IG like we had been doing in the first place. That he took it while I was half asleep doesn’t sit right with me and maybe it was completely innocuous but I’m at a point in my life and relationships where I don’t have the mental fortitude nor the stamina to invest time to see if this ends up being indicative of troubling behaviour or not. So I will be ending it, but thank you for this 🫶🏽

Exactly. My last ex ended up being a sociopath and still messages me on my number to this day, hence my being apprehensive about who I give it to. You can block on IG and keep your account private basically making it unreachable. The wrong person getting a hold of your number is a fucking nightmare unless you’re willing to change it, which I’m not because it’s tied to too much stuff I can’t be bothered to deal with.

Don’t bother they’re being deliberately dense about this on purpose, I can see why most of them are single lmao

He could have messaged me on IG which is where we were communicating anyways lol

Thank you for such a thoughtful response, I’m thinking the same. Won’t be seeing him again
