I just had to turn down a prancing Wyll. I tried to let him down easy, but he wasn't getting the hint.

Is this what it's like to be a woman? Dudes come prancing up to you out of nowhere like it's their best move, then get bitchy when you don't drop your pants for a two step?

I know I risk summoning the worst of the Internet with this question. I'm still curious if anyone's experienced similar in the game. Maybe I'm way off thinking there's some empathy lessons in here. It's obviously not the message of the game, but maybe one of the messages.

I romanced Gale early (picked him over Astarion), and I was surprised at how quickly we were doing romance stuff. So I can totally see how if someone wasn't interested in that it would've been weird.

For me, Wyll was the one who jumped the gun out of nowhere. I'd hardly had him in my party, and suddenly we're romantically-dancing around the camp for some reason. Dude? I hardly know you!
