Reply To: Am I being too pushy on dates? I could use some advice.

You can just write a post saying this is what happened and I’m feeling insecure about it. You’d likely have been met with more compassion if you’d done that instead of disagreeing with everyone for five pages as you insist the way you date is correct even though you’re not having the kind of luck you’d like and bemoaning how confusing consent is.

Anyway, it happens sometimes, but it’d likely not be a dealbreaker to a woman who has been out on a few fun dates with you and is enjoying getting to know you/likes you. On a first date when you were pushy and then, by your calculation, only 60% enthusiastic to be with you? Nope.
