for guys in relationship,or dating,do ever say ''wrong''thing
to your girlfriend,or date,not on purpose.but you
ask the wrong questions,or talk about some offensive topic,
or something like that,that pissed them off. I nearly pissed off my lady friend,
(the flirty,kissing co-worker) I said something about her
looks,and she looked pissed,luckly I change the subject,quickly.
it was a close call. also I should include saying the wrong thing,to
flirty women,or women who are showing interested.

Yeah, all of the time. This is the main way I shoot myself in the foot.... :evil: :x

This is how I put off all the girls I ever try and flirt with. Not only do I bring up the "wrong topics," but I also SUCK at lighthearted banter.

No, never.

...in case anyone couldn't deduce: that was sarcasm.

No offense OP, but this question seems asinine.

Yes. That is why I have problems with a lot of women. I piss them off by saying things that are easily misconstrued. I am in a new social environment now, and I am trying to stick to the script of just superficial talk (safe topics, no personal opinions, no jokes, no self-deprecating remarks, no too-personal questions). I would rather be seen as quiet and aloof than offensive or a jerk. I don't want to make enemies.

Men off the spectrum have the same problem with saying the wrong thing. The reason they don't apologize is because they are afraid they won't be forgiven for it
