Ew… As if I want my date to just make me angry for funsies… God modern dating is so gross!
Comment on Might explain some of my dating missteps
Fedizen@lemmy.world 2 days agoLike if you follow your example I don’t think the response is generally “I’m upset because you think I’m bad” but rather a declining respect for person.
The other thing is in dating women usually want to identify violent men (which a portion of men are) so you do want to trip their anger while you’re still in public and see how they respond. So I think that in a dating scenario specifically the role reversal becomes nonsensical (there’s just statistically less violent women to suss out so the the dynamics on what’s being evaluated is different).

I mean as somebody with way too many siblings, angry for funsies is real for a section of society.
Saying upsetting things on a date is generally a red flag but society I think has pushed people into doing it by rewarding the narcissist sociopaths in our society disproportionately for generations

If we’re supposed to excuse people being shitty because they might be performing some sniff test for anger, the test doesn’t work.
