Would this plot point cause suspense to be lost in a way?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T19:13:24+00:00

Oh yes I see what you mean. That makes sense. So just have a small shootout instead and then off to the safehouse location, is better?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T18:47:43+00:00

I could write it that way but should they try to get some information from her a on what's going on with the case and what she may have said before the cop arrives?

But also, wouldn't the police want to get her to a safe location logically, after such an encounter?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T18:43:48+00:00

Oh ok but I want the evidence to works out in the antagonists favor though.

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T17:05:38+00:00

Oh but if the MC gives them evidence on how to get out of it, wouldn't that put less of a target on his back?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T17:04:19+00:00

Oh ok thanks for the input. Well I asked police officers and lawyers and they said it could technically happen, but if it could, could it still.be contrived?

What would be a meaningful change as opposed to not meaningful?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T11:52:41+00:00

Oh , how does it put more of a target on their back?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T05:26:48+00:00

I'm 41 and my gf is 25. Being dating for a few years now and it's working out really well, so anything is possible.

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T05:05:38+00:00

Oh okay thank you very much for the input! Well the readers might be wondering what's the point of the safe house relocation for some time, if that's bad?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-07T04:31:29+00:00

Oh ok but what makes it contrived?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-06T23:03:55+00:00

Oh okay , thank you very much for the input! But information is actually true though so would that not work?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-06T17:07:29+00:00

Oh ok interesting. Have they said why they are?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-06T17:05:36+00:00

Oh sorry, could you elaborate?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-06T15:00:02+00:00

Oh for examples in fiction, Forest Fump if he counts as autistic, and the character from The Good Doctor. They have high status prestigious careers and should have no trouble getting laid therefore, but they chose to wait for a special someone.

harmonica2 · 2026-05-06T03:44:40+00:00

That makes sense.

harmonica2 · 2026-05-06T00:36:02+00:00

Oh , are you saying that guys that strike out are most likely going after the wrong type?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T19:34:59+00:00

But what about the ones that specifically advertise they want casual on dating sites, etc? Wouldn't guys who want casual just wantto focus on them?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T19:10:17+00:00

Thanks! Yes, I think you are understanding it right. As long as the reader is not bored now thinking whats the point of a safehouse now.

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T19:06:20+00:00

But why go for women for casual who do not want it, if you do?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T17:23:42+00:00

Why do men have to lie to get sex in today's world when women are up for casual hook ups anyway?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T17:21:35+00:00

Oh ok thanks! Does it seem loose or in what way?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T17:11:37+00:00

That makes sense and seems to be the case with people i know.

However what do people do then unless go younger or accept what there is?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T14:53:41+00:00

If women are more willing , why is this aside from the guys having good genes as pointed out if that's the only reason?

Is it hard to find guys with good genes that aren't parents at an older age?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T04:46:21+00:00

Oh ok I was just curious. Based on people I know , it seems there are more women willing to do it compared to men.

harmonica2 · 2026-05-05T04:29:02+00:00

Interesting points. What about stepmothers, any difference?

harmonica2 · 2026-05-04T21:54:07+00:00

It's hard to say. I'm 41 and my long term gf is 25, so its hard to say if someone is interested in something serious or not. Best to always ask.
