Or would that eliminate the thrill of the chase? Is there a way a girl should tell you what she wants that would be less off-putting and more appealing?

Ex 1, she indirectly lets you know what she likes by talking about what she's learned what she needs based on what other men succeeded or failed to do, whereby you can infer her needs and decide whether you can or want to be better than them.

Ex2, she directly says she likes it when men do xyz, and asks you if that works for you.

I got chosen to be a bridesmaid and my boyfriend got chosen to be a groomsman in an upcoming wedding in June.
I rented a bridesmaid gown for the event…. I was told by the store owner that I’m responsible to go pick it up myself. It’s in the west end of the city and it is a bit of a ghetto area with strip clubs around…. but I do know how to get there myself.

My mom was insisting that my boyfriend should come pick up the dress with me just because he’s my boyfriend, but he can’t because he works on Saturday mornings till at least 12pm

My mom is making a big deal that my boyfriend can’t come with me and she’s nagging me to get a friend and then is insisting to have their number so she can make sure I’m not going alone to pick up my dress that day…

my boyfriend got annoyed with my mom because my dress isn’t his responsibility- the ladies go themselves for their dresses just like the way the guys go for their suits, secondly if he wasn’t working he would’ve come with me.

is my mom making a big deal out of this and being meddlesome and trying to create a fight? Or does she have a point?
