Audience Reactions

While some attendees seemed to appreciate her message, others appeared bewildered. Paul Goodrich was one such individual, confused about what "games" Kylie was referring to. “What does she mean? Is she against gamers or something?”

Michelle Contreras swiftly interjected, clarifying the intent behind Kylie’s statement. “She clearly doesn't want to deal with someone who is non-committal and who might exploit ambiguity to cheat.”

The Polyamory Question

Eric Brown then chimed in, eager to share his perspective as someone open to polyamory. “What if I’m interested in a consensual polyamorous relationship? Is that one of the ‘games’ she’s trying to avoid?”

Goodrich attempted to clarify, “I assume she’s aiming for monogamy. But I wonder if this really helps anyone. Cheaters aren’t likely to care about her stance. It’s like asking someone not to spit in your food; it should be a given.”

“Just stop, Paul!” Michelle snapped, reinforcing her point against Goodrich’s confusion.

Reflection on Relationships

After some deliberation, the group collectively pondered whether Kylie’s ambiguous statement might inadvertently challenge the ongoing trend of gamifying social interactions, including romantic pursuits. Although they wished her the best in her dating journey, they doubted that this approach would yield fruitful results.

“Ultimately,” Eric concluded, “I won’t be swiping right on her. It’s not about her looks; it’s just that she doesn’t seem capable of engaging in a serious discussion about polyamory or expressing her true intentions.”

“Enough, Eric!” Paul retorted, redeeming himself in the conversation.

At the time of reporting, the group was contemplating engaging in some games of their own.
