Breaking out Rayo’s number into expanded Knuth’s up-arrow notation by hand would be easier than jumping into this.

Anon needs to count their lucky stars and get on with life.

Was anon not also getting laid along the way? This reads like he just followed in waiting. If anon never got laid and followed me around. Then rejected me when i finally said lets give it a try. I'd assume he stayed my friend for this revenge moment.

If he was getting laid as well; Thats pretty shallow.

dunno, the guy talks almost like he's asexual now, and was so for at least some time. As i get it, it would be weird to ask the girl out again and again if she rejected him the first time, and if anon still had romantic feelings, i think it would've been hella frustrating for him to continue after the rejection. I see where you're coming from tho.

Setting aside the ick of valuing someone my how many (or how few) partners they've had....

Sounds to me like Anon is a "beta", she was looking for an "alpha" (these would be my impression of her opinion)... When all the "Alphas" rejected her, or used her as a cumdumpster and left, and she started to lose the looks she thought would land her an "Alpha", she finally considered Anon as a possible partner.

As horrible as that is, rejecting someone based on body count is pretty shitty. If the tables were turned and Anon had a massive body count, more people would think they're a stud more than anything.

The double standard is horrid and unacceptable.

I don't even remember my body count. I stopped keeping track after 12 or so? It's just not important, and as long as you're having safe, protected intimate times, who gives a shit?

Edit: Seems I've been ratio'd. Noted, thank you for your participation.

He brings up number of sexual partners but I'm not sure that's the real issue here.

The bigger issue is that he's made to feel like the last or backup choice.

She should have realized how that would come across and its completely reasonable for him to say no based on vibes here.

We are only getting one side of the story though.

Thanks for this reply. Being GenX isn’t the bed of roses some folks believe it is. I find myself reading more physical books these days than I ever before. Kind of just to take it all in at less than a blur. It’s all whipping by at breakneck speed.
