Nothing wrong with your reply, spark. She's looking for someone to worship her and treat her like a princess. Good luck to her, she'll need it.

u should worship ur girl like a princess...

as long as you do so as her equal & not her subordinate

RSD natural method bitches

Her: im a princess blah blah blah
Me: Shush

Yeah, in a perfect world Phil mate.

How many relationships do you know of that are like that? None myself.

I would be satisfied with having a great amount of mutual respect for each other.

No one heard of treating the queens like whores and the whores like queens?

You had the opportunity there to play along with it, treat her like one if she wanted and throw in banter now and then to keep her keen.

Back in the game after being AOA for a couple of years, excuse me if I'm a little rusty...

True and I do when they are my girl. But I think because of my headspace at the moment I just wasn't interested in making any effort. The fact I was even texting was more down to structuring time then anything else.

She didn't.

I can see how that comment comes across but it wasn't what I was implying. Again, down to where my head is that moment (getting over a difficult breakup) I treat people well when they've earned my trust and respect. I wasn't even thinking of screwing her as I have no appetite for this at the moment

Some useful discussion and feedback here so thanks everyone. I think because of these personal issues I'm doing right to distance myself from women romantically at the moment. As my hearts just not in to trying to be flirtatious.

Until I've got a job and moved back out of my parents house I just don't see the point as I can't take anyone back home and tbh getting my career back on track is far more important than any woman at the moment.

I wouldn't concern myself too much with the possible underlying subtext of your statements. Being genuine with your words is all that matters. You can't control how people interpret, or misinterpret what you say. There are many stupid people out there who will misinterpret what you say. It's inevitable.

She said "Although I should mention that I do believe I am a princess and expect to be treated like one"

I could interpret its subtext to be 'I'm a naive little girl who has an over-inflated opinion of herself, and anyone who doesn't worship me isn't good enough', which could be correct, or incorrect.

Maybe next time you get a statement like that, reply with something short inviting them to justify such a statement e.g. “right…..”, “If you say so….”. I would've thought that any cracks in their confidence would be evident in a less certain or authoritative response from them. Maybe.
