Is the idea of expectations. And I don't mean commitment, being kind to each other, etc. Those are fine.
Just the plethora of social rules that people are constantly arguing over. When you should expect or give sex, how often you should text, what it means if they text more or less than twice an hour, oh god they were a little quiet are we breaking up, who should ask what first, etc.
Just listening to people discuss it online is mind-boggling.
I know it's mostly guys who complain about clingy girls, but I can just imagine getting flack for not being able to intuit how to not give off the impression of being disinterested, angry, etc, as told by Cosmo magazine or someone on the Internet. It might take nothing more than not wishing them goodnight when it was expected or asking how their day is going often enough.
I want to approach if I need something/have something to say and be approached if they need something/have something to say.
