true and I agree with all of that.
still if were going to split hairs here: the first time around she was asked by him to visit his mom's cafe because it was aimed at highschool girl and they wanted feedback.
yes, she only agreed because he mentioned his mom, but still it was about checking out the cafe.
lmao, so which one is it? seeing the mom or checking out cafe?
the second time around she was the one to approach him, yes. did she only ask him to go get closer to seeing the mom? yes, she did. is it being mean? yes.
no, what she's
doing can be called "mean" (at best).
person doing that kind of stuff is called "self-centered" and "manipulative".
but that doesn't count as "leading him on" and trying to make him like her or fall in love with her just to get to his mom. you know what, I mean? she's not "leading him on" at least not the way I understand that phrase
no one knows what you mean and it also shows you don't understand the phrase's meaning.
she's exploiting his obvious emotional attachment to get what she wants from him. it's a textbook example of "leading someone on".
and I mean she even directly asked him where his mom will be, but it was his on biaded vision that made him read into it.
holy shit yes, it's not like that question holds totally different colloquial implication and we should all fucking assume that person of the opposite sex asking to "hang out in our house [with us]" inquiring about eventual [identical sex as them] parent presence is doing that because it's actually the parent who said person wants to fuck.
...you all right in there? because if that's what you'd have had assumed, processing reality must be rather painful experience.
In the end she asked him to hang out because, like some young adults, she felt awkward about just showing up to the cafe on her own for no reason other than to see her.
so? how does that change the "exploitative" aspect of what she's doing?
now that she was invited she probably will do just that and cut the middle man thing or just casually hang out with him whenever they meet in the cafe.
wait, so you do admit she was being a manipulative bitch who's been using the guy as disposable tool for her own means, without slightest regard for his feelings, future psychological state or what realization of her crush could do to his familial relationship? possibly family structure even, it's not like she knows whether the mom is single or not and yet she's pursuing her regardless.
and looking at it from the other side: would you guys have prefered her going "behind his back" to see his mom in the cafe?
...isn't it exactly what she's doing? in your own words.
either way I feel like people would be complaining for no reason at all really
...u know, it started funny but turns out you're quite deluded.
