Why would a woman share personal details about her sex life with me about her being involved with a man I used to like?

[BrightBubblyKat]

I haven’t done anything, but mind my own business. I was thrilled that he’s found someone else, as I’m not interested anymore and I always wish people the best. I wasn’t at all jealous, more relieved, but I’m genuinely curious, why share it with me? What relevance do I have to their sex life? I have Asperger’s and I struggle to understand stuff like this, beyond feeling puzzled and thinking it’s weird.

I’m not venting. I’m asking out of curiousity, as I genuinely don’t get it. I think it’s because I’m autistic and I don’t get social cues.

When someone tells you about an ex till them that sex wasn't any good with him that you've had much better but if he does it for her then you're happy for her.

make you jealous

[BrightBubblyKat]

Oh, but why?

[eagle1951]

to be an ass

[BrightBubblyKat]

Why would it bother me though?

[BrightBubblyKat]

As long as he’s getting a shag, he’s probably going to leave me alone.

[BrightBubblyKat]

What exactly happened? Were they both trying to brag because they’re weird people who like sharing their sex lives with strangers, she’s insecure, or he’s trying to make me jealous? I don’t get any of this.

[eagle1951]

would be my guess

[BrightBubblyKat]

Which one?

[BrightBubblyKat]

It’s very confusing when people are indirect.

[eagle1951]

both of them

[BrightBubblyKat]

All three?

[BrightBubblyKat]

Should I find myself in a similar situation in future, where people are acting strangely like this, what’s the best thing to do? Ignore it? Comment on it?

Like men, women often enjoy sharing the details of their intimate sexual encounters with others -- unlike men, women usually don't have to exaggerate;)

[BrightBubblyKat]

What for?

[BrightBubblyKat]

What’s the best thing to do if women randomly do this sort of thing to me a fair bit.. with guys I’ve dated.. just wish them well, or ignore them?

[Billlewis]

Women like to share their sexual experiences with their girlfriends, whether they're seeking their opinions or simply comparing details -- 'How big is your new boyfriend's dick? This guy I've been dating has a huge cock...', etc.

By the way, I recently started following you and I'd like to invite you to follow me as well if you want, so we can discuss this in greater detail.

[BrightBubblyKat]

There’s not much to discuss.. but we can talk about other things, sure
