We can be rather enigmatic and alluring, just naturally (meaning that it's not a purposeful "manipulation"). We dictate as much if not more because we hold the emotional thermostat. Don't think we just stand there the whole night like doormats lol. There are lots of signals going on, but they're all unspoken and dynamic. This is probably Fe vs. Fi valuing.

Again, I'd like to stress this isn't a conscious thing. I know some people don't get it and are probably going to get a completely twisted picture of what I'm trying to describe and picture us as black widow spiders or something lol.

Eh, I'm always disappointment with the product of my trying to explain what I'm thinking/feeling. I can never quite capture it. Oh well.

Anyway, I'm tired....
No, I get what you mean. I just don't like it. I don't want someone going off of assumed, non-verbal cues. I don't really see the point in making a game out of it.

I mean, if he buys you a mocha, really, what else could you expect?
Ahaha, it's so common though:

BBC - The Editors: Guaranteed to divide

Coffee’ doesn’t mean coffee! ‘Coffee’ means sex! Café Crem

I think it's the same thing with prom. You know how it's like a common expectation for girls to “put out” on prom night? Ew, lol. “I bought you a corsage, do I get laid now??”
