This story worked out. I wonder how his tune would have changed if she married someone else in the mean time and he missed his chance with her.
Seems to be a bit of a confirmation bias.
- danbolt 9y agoMaybe, but I get the sense from his writing that he wouldn't have agonised over losing his chance. He likely would have ended up dating and marrying someone else he got along with.
- Mz 9y agoHe knows who he is. His choice revealed to both her and him who he is and that he's a decent guy. I'm a woman. Some man revealing to me that my hopes, dreams and future are something he is willing to trample in pursuit of sexual gratification for himself is not endearing. It is the opposite of endearing. It makes it clear to me he is a predator and cannot be trusted. The question that gets answered by your choices is a question of character. Doing the right thing means you may get a shot at it later and she will know she can trust you. Hitting on some woman under circumstances where it is ruinous to her dreams is not a way to establish a loving relationship with anyone.
- pm90 9y agoMaybe you subscribe to the "one perfect spouse for me" philosophy? From what I see of his attitude from the article, he probably would find someone similar.
- maerF0x0 9y agoNot so much that as maybe some amount of dashed hopes?
