If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

And, possibly, lower your expectations.
Isn't this true for most things?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I know cookies are following me around, so lots of sites give me Modcloth ads, or tried to sell me bags when I was looking for a new one. Why is The Current Conscience trying to sell me money-transfer-to-Jamaica services? When did I let that slip?
Not that they're getting a penny of my money. Damned Jamaicans.

I can now definitively say that the only way to get laid on a regular basis (as a single person) is to explicitly look for it on a regular basis
The *only* way? I've never explicitly looked for it, but have had periods of it dropping unasked into my lap.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, if ALL I wanted were to have a roll in the hay, I imagine that's not so hard to find. It's that that's really not all I want.
Then again, I may feel differently in a few months!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I looked at the website for Galaxy Vegan Cream Cheese once, months ago, and those ads are still following me around everywhere on the internet. I don't need these ads! When I do want to buy vegan cream cheese, Galaxy is the brand I buy, but I buy it a few times a year. These ads are not making me want to buy any more of it than I already do.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
But! I write books and hang out with scientists who guest on Colbert and Craig Ferguson! And I can get all your Firefly shit autographed! I'm a total catch!

I wear comic book paraphernalia and I never leave home without a blade. Why isn't there a lineup?
Tim owes me at least two signed scripts by this point, and I don't say that much.

I mostly just seem to attract Nice Guys. And they're so angry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The *only* way? I've never explicitly looked for it, but have had periods of it dropping unasked into my lap.

I would imagine that's easier for the attractive, but still -- you can be as hot as you want and sitting at home alone isn't going to get you laid, is part of what I'm saying.
