So I have this long time friend that I was considered an orbiter to after blowing my chances years ago. Long story short, I reengage after a period of NC and broke the barrier (had relationships between, the whole deal). Basically we’ve been “dating” for a few weeks but nothing is official.

She has said the love word while drunk multiple times, I did not reciprocate cause I knew it was just drunk words.

Today, she invited me via text to a family thing short notice and way earlier than I thought appropriate to which I regrettably agreed to go to. Then some teasing ensues via text followed by a goodnight and then this: https://imgur.com/ftjNuk6

Couple weeks ago I had a similar situation where a girl called me crying saying “you don’t deserve someone like me”.

It’s like some self deprecating act... is this an attempt of trying to ejecto seato me to beta orbiter?

The crying girl I’m sure is 99% dtf on call, but this one I can’t wrap my head around...

I guess it’s the self deprecating... what’s the reason?
