Me: I’m not sure yet.
W: have you picked up any girls lately?
Me: No
W: you are probably gonna have so many hoes
Me: (just shrugged nonchalantly).

*a bit later*

W: You are gonna wear your ring forever
Me: You aren’t going to wear yours, why would I wear mine?

She really seemed like she wanted to say more but ended up saying “what else?” I replied “nothing”. She lay there quietly and then asked me to massage her neck. I replied “sure if you will rub my hip which is sore from my hockey game yesterday”. She said okay. So I massaged her neck for a few minutes, she hasn’t asked for touch besides cuddling for a few weeks. Maybe a temp check but she agreed to do something for me in return



You did everything perfect.


You held your ground. She was attracted to you.
Your convo was not needy.
She asked for something, you asked for her to do something in return before agreeing. This gains her respect and is attractive.
