How to end that "booty call" relationship
I know, you're probably thinking "why the hell would i wanna do that?" Well this addresses how you can make it happen, whether you want to or not. So if you DONT want to, make sure you pay attention closely...
Any girl who says she "just wants to have fun" is either a raging slut, really drunk [all the time?], just broke up with her boyfriend (you can only hope), or secretly -- maybe even subconsciously -- trying to rope you in down the road.
Either way, you can just roll with it and figure out what she wants. However, regardless of what she really wants, there is one quick way to raise a doubt in her mind that will almost always cause her to end your little "agreement."
Get ready for it..."I wouldn't date you, anyways" or "we would never work out, anyways" - anything along these lines is going to result in her incessantly questioning you why you think that, which you dont want to talk about when youre (1) trying to get your socks blown or (2) tryin to get her out the door
Let me analogize for a second to bring it full circle - it is all about DENIAL, as in the kind many parents do in regard to their child's alcoholic or sexually deviant (read: awesome) behavior. As long as mom does not have physical proof, such as a used condom or seeing you drinking/drunk, in her mind she can still deny to herself that you do it. But once she has some credible proof, she is going to dwell, dwell, dwell...
Well it works the same way with your hookup - once she hears that theres not even a possibility that you would date her, that means there is something wrong with her, and she can no longer carry those fantasies that it might "eventually work out" - damn, her plan to be the one to FINALLY change you has been foiled
So, use this line if you want out. If not, keep giving those awesomely vague responses and encouraging massive alcohol consumption so your circular logic and dismissive answers go over without contest. Cheers
