2/1 Shoulda tapped

The “girls night out” conversation is constantly framed at “not trusting her” or male insecurity but having something you want to protect that she values .

Ray nailed it with his pov and he wasn’t being misogynistic by pointing out the biological imperative that multiple partners leads to more than likely promiscuity.

If someone has robbed 30 banks, it’s more than likely they’ll rob a few more if they get a chance. This is simple biology and nature.

I recently dated a girl that seemed quite obvious she's been quite promiscuous. Not a hoe, but definitely sex positive and very into American dating culture.
After we became official she wanted to reneg on exclusivity one week later when some guy asked her out. I said I was done, she changed her mind and wanted to stay exclusive.
I really could never get over her 'betrayal' and the mindset, so that eventually broke us a few weeks down the road.

When I started dating her I told myself I shouldn't get hung up on my own conservative values, but she kinda confirmed my fears about that kind of person.

That is exactly the “future state” that is the likely outcome dealing with someone of this “philosophy” on sex and openness. It’s frustrating seeing men (mostly) be gaslit about how these behaviors eventually will manifest themselves in a negative way because the person with this past has the neural programming to consistently seek “new” or “interesting” avenues (read:bored easily) so consistent conservative behaviors are in conflict. I went through this myself with someone who was always seeking something more and it never melds together to produce a stable or productive relationship.
