I got a very insulting offer of sex yesterday
My mate just broke up with his girlfriend, I was trying to persuade her to make an effergy of him to burn and invite all his friends.
She said she'd get back at him by either getting people to punch him or meeting me and having a couple of bottles of wine.
Which is basically "I'll sleep with you but only for revenge, and only when I'm hammered" I did not take her up on the offer.

She didn't even take me up on the effigy idea.
I was well up for burning something yesterday afternoon.

did he dump her in a horrible way?

Yep. From what I know.

hang on
how did you construe an offer of sex from "i'll meet up with you and have a few bottles of wine" ?

In context it was obvious.

Pretty much everything is a come on if you're a rapist

'Don't ever come near me again
or I'll get a restraining order' becomes

'She must want me to come *in* her, and she definitely wants to try some of that BDSM stuff'

Yeah, I'm thinking the Tarantino character in from Dusk till dawn, she was one thing which was filtered into filthy come on's by our prospective rapist

This is only a couple of weeks after another girl said
"I'd be your girlfriend if you won the lottery."

that is incredibly shallow
actually saying you'd date a rich man is awful

considering how often girls bang on about things damaging their self-esteem
you might expect that they'd show some tact in the opposite direction

did you scream back "I WOULDN'T BE YOUR BOYFRIEND EVER YOU FUCKING FAT MISERABLE BITCH!"

The best is when they say something really fucking horrible
which you ignore because you're into them, but then they have a go at you for saying something a lot less insulting as a joke.
(PsychoChomp, Mon 10 Jan 2011, 16:11, Reply)

Yeah but that just makes it sound
like you excuse bad behaviour because you fancy them, whereas you'd pull anyone else up on it- exactly as they are doing.

I think it's more giving them the benifit of the doubt.
Everyone can say things that can be interpretted the wrong way. I often tend to assume that anyone I'm involved with isn't trying to insult me but I haven't often found that this works both ways.

But if it's outright horrible
like someone saying they'd only sleep with you if you won the lottery you should pull them up on it, even if you fancy them. Otherwise they'll view you as a pushover.
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Mon 10 Jan 2011, 16:18, Reply)

I'm not much one for confrontation in real life.
and I am a bit of a pushover.
(PsychoChomp, Mon 10 Jan 2011, 16:21, Reply)

Well your choice
but even from people I fancy, I wouldn't stand for them being deliberately cruel and I probably wouldn't fancy them for much longer, no matter how attractive they were.

sometimes it's better to tell people what you really think, though
otherwise they WILL draw their own conclusions. whereas having what might seem like it would be a difficult conversation can stop them from thinking you are a total twat. and inevitably telling everyone else that you are a total twat. AND the conversation might be easier than you think, eg my fiasco this morning.
