  • I’ve tried 4 times, 1 was a complete rejection that nearly ruined a friendship, the second was a weird soft-rejection that led to a friends relationship that felt a lot like I was taking advantage of this person. That ended when they moved away.

    The other two led to relationships, one lasted a month and ended with me getting dumped. Second is my current girlfriend.

    All of these happened within a year, starting when I was 22. Before that first rejection I had never made a move on anyone because I had 0 self confidence and could only see women as sexual objects. The girl who first rejected me was the first one that I liked for genuine reasons, which allowed me to change the way I looked at women. I now have a lot of female friends and hardly ever think about women I see in a sexual way, when 2 years ago I couldn’t see a woman without thinking that way. I owe a lot to the girl who rejected me, and we are now friends again, for which I am grateful.






  • Yeah I’m about 6 hours in maybe and I’ve already had Shadowheart, Lae’zel and Astarion try and fuck me. And I’ve hardly done any of their quest shit or talked to them hardly at all. I feel like the romance system in this game needs to be reworked for sure. Like I want to have to work for that Astariussy you know what I’m saying?

    I do fucking love the rest of the game so far though. Combat feels great, story is good so far though I haven’t got very far in it. The boss fights I’ve had so far have been satisfying. I really like the characters aside from the romance thing, they all feel dynamic and flawed, and they actually feel like they have emotions to some extent (I’m actually kind of reminded of the romance options in Fallout 4 in that everything you do gains their approval or disapproval, though romance in that game is done a little better, though still not perfect.)
