it’s not too far of a walk, but this is right after we were huffing and puffing and tired from just walking two blocks (we dipped into his house which was on the way and left me to continue walking home) the walk is entirely uphill facing the sun and it’s currently 83° I’m also supposed to be meeting a friend soon and the walk definitely makes me slower

so yall went into his house to cool off and instead of him driving u the rest of the way he basically kicked u out in the hot ass heat to walk the rest of the way??

that was a typo — he went into his house. I had somewhere to be so I kept walking, but we passed directly by his house (and car) and he went inside and said bye to me, yeah

They said it themselves it wasn’t far tho? And why make the circle trip?

cause why would u leave ur partner in the streets walking by themselves? like if you love them and care about them you would give them a ride home regardless of how close it is, or bare minimum id walk with them

Again, they said it’s not far, I’m just confused why someone would be upset about walking a block or so

girl ur missing the point im trying to make. You date someone because u love and care about them right? if you're out with them on a date and yall have been walking for a while in 83 degree weather and ur house is the closest, bare minimum i'd go "hey, wanna stop and cool off for a bit?" or if i knew that they had something else planned (STILL BARE MINIMUM) id be like "wanna cool off and then i can take u home?", like it's not about the distance its about what u do for someone u love

Are we really getting this heated over a block? I’m not going to ask my man to walk me to the parking garage on campus , especially if it’s only 83°. Just seems like an over reaction given the distance. Had it been half a mile, or even a quarter of a mile, that might be an issue

yes girl, its not about u asking its about u not having to ask in the first place. They love you! they should be willing to do stupid little shit like that for you! its like the whole "will u peel my mandarin" trend that was going around on tiktok like why wouldn't they do some little lowkey over thw top thing for u if they love you??

the distance is why I’m questioning if I’m being dramatic, cause yeah, it’s not a far walk (more than a block, but nothing I haven’t done before even in this heat). but I’m also like, I asked him if he could drive. my other plan (a scooter, cause again, I was racing the clock a little meeting a friend) didn’t work cause my phone camera doesn’t work. he was with me when he saw that plan didn’t work and still just said bye. when I said bye a little curtly he just said “don’t do that.”

i’m not an old-fashioned every guys has to be a gentleman kinda person, but I do have standards, and him just not trying after spending a whole day together doing the same walks was frustrating (and him not letting me express that is another can of worms)

See now given more context I can see why you’re annoyed, that was weird but I wouldn’t freak out about it. Just say that it wasn’t something that made you feel like he cares.

Peeling an orange isn’t over the top lol, now that we have context we are on a similar page but still. In the original context without extra details. Not a reason to freak out

i see your point tbh. but i also think it’s super subjective. i grew up being told short drives that can be a walk is a waste of gas. i guess it’s instilled in my brain, hence my original comment. not that i agree cuz girl if i don’t wanna walk then im gonna drive, but at the same time…under THOSE pretenses…i see both sides? BUT at the same time…even if he didn’t want to drive, he could’ve walked with op to her car at least. so tbh yeah i feel like how you’re feeling is p valid op

I am interested to know what state you are in tho, cause I’m from Texas so for me 80 degrees is great I’m wearing sweats rn

i mean im not saying he HAD to drive op, im just saying he could've done literally anything else besides telling op no and letting her walk by herself 💀 i thought i was being pretty clear?
