    She literally says he wouldn’t be a FWB to her, the implication being that she’s not attracted to him in that way. If this guy came back and said “I listened to that Jimmy Soul song and I realized that you could really make me happy for the rest of my life so let’s go for it” would the expectation be that she’s cool with that?

      How is that an implication? She says he’s worth more than a fwb, all that extra shit I have no idea where y’all are getting from cause she never said he wasn’t attractive

        She isn’t saying he’s “worth more” stop making things up. That’s your interpretation , but it’s not in the text. We don’t live inside your head.
        People are being very kind in giving you explanations for why they interpret it as an insult and you keep dismissing them while just adding things you’d like the text to have.

          Naw people have said “it’s easily interpreted” and “I don’t see how people don’t see it’s backhanded” and y’all keep implying she said he wasn’t attractive, fuck are you on?

            We do not imply this, it has been explained several times already. You’d just rather be obtuse and feel superior instead of engage with an argument that has been presented several times already.

              I’m engaging, she is being LITERAL, so keep repeating yourself.

                she is being LITERAL.

                And you are literally adding to what is said, which is what you keep pretending not to understand.

                so keep repeating yourself.

                I have to repeat myself because you can’t get the simple concept of “when you’re referring to what was said, refer to that instead of what you’d like it to be” thru your thick skull
