>>22991136my take is that it's because it forces her question if she actually wants to be there herself—whereas before her presence was simply the result of an adherence to the female social dynamic, which is more complex than that of the male
she's there because:
>it maintains her social standing>it fulfils social and societal obligations>she's expected to attend to play a role in a relational web (friend group, family, hostess politics, etc.)and this is the subconscious product of psychic sexual dimorphism; it's female relationally-sensitive compliance with unspoken expectation
but, now that you're 'enjoying' it, we get:
>"wait—he’s not just tolerating this with me? he's actually having a better time than I am? at this stupid thing I dragged him to?"her role now feels unstable and performative; she's jealous that you're (ostensibly) *genuinely* enjoying it; and she notices the whole event is weird social bullshit
she starts to question if she herself even wants to be there, because she's confronted with the fact she's not really enjoying it, and is just fulfilling a social role and obligation
whereas for you as a man, your very first thought about it was something along the lines of:
>"do I actually want to go? no the fuck I don't; it'll be shit"the differences between how the sexes function shouldn't make you sad, anon—we're two halves of a whole, and the things they do, they do for a good reason
societal cohesion and strong social bonds have value, even if it means we have to attend boring functions to build and maintain those bonds
men, left to our own devices, often seem to alienate ourselves
