I was going to reply to an older post about someone who's plate ran up to an ex in the grocery store and he felt "disrespected" which is obviously ridiculous. This will be more constructive.

Per this example, If we don't care, and it doesn't phase us because we're grabbing beer and pizza and fucking her anyway after the store, fine. This is acceptable with a plate or FWB. If we see , but haven't been shown completely, LTR potential in a girl do we start expecting "more" or "better" actions? Honestly, if we don't, how will she not know that we're ok with her flirting with dudes, running up to exes, feigning attention when we are out on the town. She might think that's just how we roll?

OR

Do we just expect them to "act" better because they really are serious about us, and want us as an LTR.? My thinking is she SHOULD know this, despite our lack of reaction or aloofness on all the games and things broads do.

Quick antecdote from real life: I'm plating a "scene" girl who writes and interviews local bands blah blah. Always at shows smoozing, etc and uses her sexuality for influence. I have no problem with this.

She has LTR potential (I won't go into these qualities now) but she needs to show me more. I let all this flirting go because I know the game, I go flirt with girls or get in the pit, whatever. Took shots with one of the bands and talked music.

She keeps bringing up that she's "only screwing me" and "telling my friends about me" and talking to her gay photog about me. I hate saying mixed signals, but she's hot and cold. Flirty over text then cold, hits me up everyday then goes in the tank for a few, gives affection then doesn't. Asks me about my stance on relationships (I leave the door slightly ajar) then says "she's not ready for one".

I left last night after we got back and she was too drunk to even function, despite offering sex and being model hot, I honestly wasn't interested. She's not that spontaneous on sex lately and even admitting to masterbating a few hours before I picked her up. I went to a Tinder girls house instead after I put her to bed, it was only midnight.

Cliffs:

Do we start shaping a plates/FWBs with LTR potential behavior when we show we never care/act aloof, or should they not be dense enough to figure out that shit wouldn't be acceptable?
