@Artemis because of the story itself or because the other player is being toxic?

Y’all can come at me if you want and I’m okay with it. However, there are reasons that I’m not willing to commit to relationship RP and if I do commit to it, I have an OOC discussion of things I would like to avoid. I didn’t live on this planet this long without some baggage and I like to keep it out of my fun hobby time. I also respect that others want to play that out, so there is never a bad thing if people don’t want the same.
That said. I get that this can happen.

Some people get so invested that it’s scary and I prefer to avoid that.

It feels even worse, for me, when someone oversteps something that I didn’t know was a boundary until after they stepped over. So you feel, in a way, violated but you also know that you can’t really be angry at them—you didn’t know, they didn’t know.

@Kestrel That’s not at all what I said.
ETA: But, of course, also important to remember.

what’s fun is when you overstep your own boundary without realizing it and hurt your own feelings minutes later.
“oooh, this will add some emotional juice!!”
…
“oh god, shit, the juice is too juicy.”

@spiriferida For L&L, really play up the politics, intrigue, animosity between rival families, and management aspects to the level that no one has time to knock boots on screen.
Demand characters have so many administrative skills, they become virtually unfuckable.
Joke’s on you, I’m into that shit
I mean, isn’t “admin assistant” office sex an entire genre as well? We all know who does the real work while ahem getting fucked over.
(I’m being cliche. I don’t really think every admin assistant everywhere does everything for said admin while they do nothing.)

@howyadoin bc the player turned out to be unstable and odd and yes, i’d say toxic after a good few months of playing with them. I ended up in a spot where i was tying myself in knots to accommodate them and it was real freaky for me given some past stuff. Thankfully i dropped it!

@Artemis Glad you saw the way out.
I don’t mind making small accommodations for someone for the purpose of their boundaries, but in my case? When I found myself avoiding RPing with other characters for the sake of their own insecurities that’s when I realized I was bending over backwards too far.
