So..........a couple of weeks ago I met some random in a bar. As I do with all randoms that show interest, I said I am not looking or wanting a relationship with anyone. We got on ok and came back to my house for the night/morning and had “fun”. We have been out together a few times since and even cooked dinner on my yacht but the random seems to be getting too attached. Lots of texts and if I don’t reply to texts within an hour, because I’m busy, i get phone calls instead. Random seems a bit vulnerable with a need to be in a relationship and seems like random gets depressed when rejected, which I think is also being used to try and guilt trip me. Told random last night that we won’t be having extra “fun” anymore because of all those reasons. So.........is it ok to still be friends or to stop contact completely?
Not ok. You see she's getting attached. It will be mixed messages if you say no more "fun" but then try to continue contact....she'll read into it. And you call her random...doesnt sound like a friend...so cut contact.
I agree, clean break for her sake. "Fun" isn't the same on the emotional level for women. Granted all women are different but it's rare if intense emotions are not involved. Plus SEX a real spiritual connection - soul tie that takes place in the invisible realm. Granted, you forewarned her but deep down who can resist hoping for true "love". I'm so glad I'm not in thay dating world anymore!!!
I didn’t say it was a woman, 😂. And pilots of woman have sex as a one night stand without wanting a relationship. My concern is if I break it off completely then that’s more of a rejection but if purely friends then I’m not sure they are able to handle that without wanting more so lots of small rejections. Hard to decide what way will be best to limit the pain for them. I think I should start being annoying when I go out so I don’t keep getting hit on 😂
I don't know why, but I also wondered if your "random" was a girl or a guy. Either way, I think it's really dehumanizing to refer to anyone as a "random". Would you feel good if someone called you that? Maybe I'm just old....2 -

Oopsie... I don't think you can lessen the pain but I think you can either prolong or shorten t hr e endurance.
No ok to fish

I travel a lot and I can't believe what people bring onto the plane. I sat next to a guy recently who brought a gross McDonalds bag of food that smelled overwhelmingly of onions. Airlines should only allow "cold" foods.1 -

I don’t use the word “random” when with them. I only use it to express that I don’t really know the person and it’s someone I randomly met while out.0 -
Habitually late not ok, but I've learned people who do this cannot change. They try, but they just can't so I work around it. I have a dear friend who I love and she's always late, but since it's the only thing I hate about her I tolerate it. I plan for it- if we are having dinner I make the reservation for 7pm but tell her it's for 6:30.
Telling your dinner host that there's a bug in your food0 -

Not ok really. Just move it to side of plate or discretely move it to a napkin. Or eat it as still good protein source.
Is it ok that I keep telling friends, when out drinking, to hold their drink in left hand so their right hand isn’t too cold when they shake hands with new people they met that night.1 -
I think that's ok and actually a very good tip!
Telling people you prefer not to shake hands because you don't want to get sick0 -

Letting a student sit and do absolutely nothing in class after several encouragements, asked if ok, asked if they wanted to see a counselor, switched their learning partner, switched their team facilitator, and called and conferenced with parent to find solutions.0 -
frustrating I know...but something needs to happen.
Refusing to come into contact with anyone you meet (hand shaking, etc.,)?0 -
Weird but ok for that person everyone else just needs to respect their personal physical boundaries
Telling a friend that you will buy them a belt because their pants are falling off to celebrate their weight loss

That’s ok and the right thing to do if seeing ex will cause a disruption to your friends party.
So........I’m going to town shortly to get some bits I need for repair work. As it’s Tuesday, kfc has a deal on for 9 pieces of chicken bucket for £6 and I normally get 3 buckets plus 8 hotwings so will get that today while out.
Is it ok to get a McDonald’s in town before going to kfc for all that chicken?0 -
LOL well if you're that hungry and don't do this often I guess it's ok
Telling someone you've just met who is going in for a hug "oh sorry, I'm not really a hugger"0 -
Ok, totally implementing healthy boundaries and they need to respect it.
Asking someone if they could hug you and then before you could say no thanks, they did and their clothes were damp with perspiration. Yep - slimed!0 -
LOL, well obviously not ok!
Walking out of a boring movie0 -
Ok, especially since you’re paying for it.
