prefacing your sentence with "you know" is a great way to assert dominance over someone.

prefacing your sentence with "you should" is another great way to assert dominance over someone.

combining them causes you to amp your shit up like a motherfucker.

real text message conversation

girl: hi love
one day later
fog: hello darling
girl: a day later thats cool
fog: you know, you should feel grateful that you didnt have to wait 2 days for me to text you back. :) :)

Well, this is actually pretty condescending dude. If a girl texted me that I'd hit her with an "lol" and ghost her until she did a total 180 because this is really unattractive to me over text.

In person you could maybe do this if you are totally playing with the "I'm completely fucking with you" vibe, but over texted could very easily be interpreted as a pretentious attitude, sending your attainability into a black hole and her into auto-rejection.

How did the rest of this conversation pan out?

well first i must admit i was telling a white lie and i had slightly altered the conversation to prove my point. heres the real conversation and the subsequent replies:

girl: hi love
one day later
fog: hello darling
girl: a day later thats cool
fog: you should feel grateful that you didnt have to wait 2 days :) :)
girl: oh
fog: i am kidding
fog: im good....my inner taurus really came out today with my family...wbu? how was your weekend?
girl: lmao damn i was sweating for a minute
girl: and oh no what happened?

all ended up being good....this is a girl looking for a relationship who has flaked on me 4 times now lmfao
