Search Results: being the girl on the side

Today I went to Vons and after I grabbed mostly fruits and vegetables (and some keto snacks and meat on the side) I saw these two young-adult women roaming around the store and I said excuse me as I was going to pass by them but I actually approached them and asked them if they have heard about the keto said. One of the girls said no and I said you should go check it out; I said they should try it out, it's a way to cut carbs and I have some bad habits to move away from. I gave both of them the page and the other girl took a picture of my account on her phone and I also asked if they got iPhone 13s and they said yeah and I said me too!

This is what my profile looks like:

Not only is the profile about keto diets but also about Middle Eastern and Eastern European cuisines, as well as fitness. As I left their spot I heard them laughing (presumably at the way I posted things on my TikTok). Sadly even after those few hours of being in the store they never hit the follow or like on anything related to my TikTok.

I have a feeling the White and Latina girls in Los Angeles are racist against my kind (Arabs).

Some people have “ribbing” yet teasing attitudes towards other people particularly of opposite gender and/or people they are interested in. It’s like teasing your crush to show confidence and/or get them to open up their more “real” side. It can also be about testing people by playing hard to get to see if they can “handle you”.

Women often do this to men to as quasi shit test to see if they are smart ass enough to deal with their sassiness. Men do this to women as a sign of confidence and/or to give off a slight asshole vibe because they know many girls like that.

But I noticed this is more common in some parts of the country (and world) than others. Los Ángeles and New York City are notorious for this.

Personally I never liked it. Unless the girl hits the absolute right teasing chemistry and I’m in the mood to banter it’s doesn’t get me turned on. Different if I’ve already known her for a bit and we are already well acquainted. But if I’m interested I am not looking to play faux asshole just to create a jibe to be more interesting. Rather have a real conversation with maybe some practical joking about other things besides each other.

But I think some men and women always start out with joking and slightly hard to get attitude when they like someone. It also their way of avoiding being boring at all costs.

So did men do this in response to what women want or vice versa?
