This is not about me, because I agree with you, but with that said the man still can't be mad at the woman. LMAO! If you're treating her like your girl, she will act like your girl and you will deal with whatever behavior that comes with that. You want her to act like your homeboy, treat her like one.
Unfortunately, that's not how this works.
Disgruntled simps can't compel the women they've been simping to upgrade them out of the friendzone into BF status just because they've played their role so well.
Likewise, women that are "situationship"-status can't compel the men they're "seeing" to upgrade them to GF status just because they've played their role.
This is not age-restricted, so maturity has nothing to do with it.
All anyone can do is establish their boundaries, make them known, and cut their losses when they are violated.
But complaining about how you're treated when it's behavior you tolerate,
