I can’t wait for Autumn!

I’M SO AGGRAVATED WITH SUMMER AND THE HEAT AND SWEATING. I JUST WANT SWEATERS AND PUMPKIN SPICE AND CHILLY WEATHER.

So, uh... words mean things.

Here's what "leading someone on" means: KNOWING that someone is romantically interested in you and KNOWINGLY acting in such a way that encourages them to think their feelings might be reciprocated, while KNOWING that you don't actually want them.

Here is what "leading someone on" does NOT mean: Being friendly. Being UNAWARE that someone is romantically interested in you. Thinking that you MIGHT be interested in someone but changing your mind. Being confused. Being a person that someone else feels attracted to.

I cannot stress enough that the behavior depends on the person being AWARE and acting INTENTIONALLY.

It is a thing that occasionally happens, unfortunately. Maybe they are flattered by the attention and it makes them feel good about themselves to be wanted. Maybe they enjoy feeling like they have power over someone. But you must also understand that misunderstanding or misreading other people's actions is SO COMMON, and while it hurts to be rejected, that doesn't mean that that person intended to hurt you or "wronged" you in any way! Your attraction to someone else does not equal any kind of obligation on their part.
