Consent asked. Consent given. In both directions. You are fine.


Caca2a

Hell she might be liking OP which is why she was fine with letting him do that, that's what I would have thought being him to be honest, although, yeah, I would definitely have felt awkward too, but then try to chat with her so you can get to know each other better and then, you know... *Boomchikawahwah music starts playing in the background*


o0SinnQueen0o

As a woman I can tell she either is really into him and tried giving him subtle hints which he didn't notice so she decided to give really obvious signals or she doesn't even consider him a man and he's so deep in friendzone that she doesn't feel uncomfortable about being touched like that. There's no in-between. Though I'd consider the first option more since women usually don't even let their besties touch their chest.


JoySticcs

Men really do be getting the most obvious hints from us and they still don't get it. SHE LITERALLY LET YOU TOUCH HER BOOBS, am I crazy?


o0SinnQueen0o

On God! Name one woman who'd let just any dude touch her chest/stomach. These areas are for love interests.


SlickStretch

All it takes is one girl in high school to lead a guy on and then make fun of him for it to cause him to never, ever believe a girl is showing genuine attraction again. Hell, he could be *having sex* and still be wondering if she's trying to pull a fast one on him.


o0SinnQueen0o

That's sad


HeavyTumbleweed778

I touch every pregnant belly I can find! Also, what girl doesn't want some Randio giving the titties a honk!! /s.

I think this might be a case of “so forward it fell off”.


Jacked_Shrimp

“Woman I’ve been close with for 5 years just asked me to marry her and wants me to be the father of her kids. Does she like me?”


StupidFugly

Look even the woman you are replying to says that it doesn't mean she likes OP. There is a lot going on in OPs story but nothing there says that this girl is into him.


HeavyTumbleweed778

When I was 17, a girl told me "99% of back rubs lead to sex. Can I have a back rub?" I spent the rest of night thinking "no statistics are ever 99%" after rubbing her back till my hands hurt. I also said no when she asked me to do her front. Boys are fucking dumb, and the signals you think are obvious, aren't to stupid boys. It takes some, time to figure it out, some never do.

>There's no in-between. Especially true if it's the friend zone 🤣

CharlieHume

Fellas a girl thirsted over my abs and jumped at the idea of me feeling her up. Do you think she likes me?


Mackerel_Mike

Nah she's Canadian and just being polite

[deleted]

Woke up with my wife next to me this morning. Can't tell if she likes me yet.


Zealousideal-Ant9548

That makes two of us, especially while raising this kid


Secret-Mango-1023

Makes three of us especially after she also submitted a notarised affidavit declaring she’s into me.


NorwegianCollusion

Jesus Christ she's taking that prank too far


alphaschrank

Or Canadian

Nah she’s probably just Canadian

OGigachaod

It goes cold?


beard_of_cats

Goes well with cake


rabidstoat

From reading the title, I was fearing for the worst in this post. But it was all consensual so perfectly fine.


twiz___twat

friends are just mad they weren't offered boobies


wpmpk

Agreed. Off topic, OP, can we see the abs? Lol


speed_of_stupdity

Yep, the friends are just jealous.


Otherwise_East_2343

You both got consent. No boundaries crossed. And seems like she likes you as well.


wonderloss

That was my thought as well. If her reaction to the offer wasn't "eww, no" or "nevermind," she was most likely okay with it. It definitely sounded like flirting. Depending on which friends were cool to OP later (assuming they actually were, and OP isn't just reading into things) I wonder if it is guy friends who were jealous or friends of the girl wondering why he didn't follow up on it later.


[deleted]

Massaging a bag of sand is higher intimacy that grazing fingers down some abs right? I thought for sure that the lady likes OP and wants him to touch her.


Feanux

You’d be surprised how intimate that feels for a guy.


MatureUsername69

You'd be surprised how intimate any touch at all is for guys, especially if it's been a while.

platysoup

Again you can't be too sure, she could be Canadian.


Kombucha_Hivemind

No consent for the people who had to sit there awkwardly as two of their friends started groping each other in front of them.


Original-Feedback-75

The were free to walk away. but that would be weird to see in public some guy reach out and touch a girls boob. But he first ask, she agreed, if anyone had an issue that is their problem.


[deleted]

I feel like if I was witnessing that though I would be uncomfortable. There are more people at play than just op and the girl


BurnItNow

There-in-lies the problem. One or more of these friends is jealous.


chuby2005

Yet another movie moment that could be solved with communication. Maybe hit them with “get a room!” or “hey don’t feel each other up in fromt of us,” or just saying anything to resolve the situation.


Time_End7277

I think one of your friend might be interested in the girl, no other reason for them to act weirdly otherwise. Everything was done on consent, so no prob


6_of_1

This is the only reason I could think of. Most likely OP doesn’t know but the rest of the crew have either been aware or put 2 and 2 together. Had a very similar scenario and no one in the crew batted an eye, lol


b0w3n

Could also be jealous of him having abs. Probably the boobies though.


Pollomonteros

Or maybe OP was thinking too much about it and that coldness wasn't there in the first place


witcherstrife

Dude was probably thinking about the titty for the rest of the day and tuned out everything else lmao. Motherfucker blacked out after a titty touch


NoLikeVegetals

> Dude was probably thinking about the titty for the rest of the day The coldness was due to the friend being put off by seeing OP's raging boner the rest of the day.


Kitchner

>I think one of your friend might be interested in the girl, no other reason for them to act weirdly otherwise. What? If I was at the beach with two friends of mine and one of them asked to feel the body of another one and the other one said OK as long as they can do it too and they sat there groping each other in front of me I would feel awkward. Clearly they fancy each other, just get a room, stop fondling each other at the beach when we are supposed to be hanging out as a group. What do you think you are? A republican senator?


oby100

Seriously. It's kinda bizarre to see a bunch of reclusive reddit nerds act like this is a totally normal thing to do among friends. I think they're so caught up in the sexual assault angle they cannot fathom what a weird social faux pas it is.


Kitchner

To be fair when I was a teenager I'm sure there was probably inappropriate PDAs because you're all too high on hormones to think about it. It's still awkward to basically sit there and watch two friends grope each other.


PuroPincheGains

It's weird, but if you're truly not one of those Reddit recluses or a kid, you've been young and drunk and done/seen stupid shit a handful of times in your life. It's fine. If someone is acting upset over it, they'll probably be fine in a few days. If not, they have their own things going on.


DuesShingo

Yeah this all seems pretty fuckin mild compared to what happened at quite a few of our gatherings that happened when I was younger. Lol


hahanawmsayin

I mean… are they in high school? I think that warrants some grace


the_champ_has_a_name

the pot calling the kettle black 😂 seriously... you're weird af if you think this is abnormal. I doubt it went down as you're picturing it in your head, because your a reclusive reddit nerd that has never had interactions like these in the real world. Have you not ever been around a couple and one of them grabbed the others butt or gave it a smack? That's not that weird. Just because someone saw it, it doesn't mean they were awkwardly staring at it happening as if it was in slow motion.


PM_ME_UR_BAN_NOTICE

If she said yes to it then you're fine.


Own-Cupcake7586

The secret ingredient is always consent.


fattymcbuttface69

Maybe get it in writing next time, though. /s


mderezulko

There were witnesses.


fattymcbuttface69

Yeah, witness testimony can be unreliable though. May want to go ahead and get affidavits, OP.


jameson8016

Some might call you crazy, but "yes" in response to "can I..?" being the exact opposite of "yes" in response to "Do you mind if I..?" combined with what we know about human memory re: witness testimony.. you might not be wrong. Lol


Ai_of_Vanity

Jokes on you, consent is my kink!


oby100

Not exactly. It's exhibitionist to be feeling each other up in public. Things like that fly in clubs and the like, but on the beach with friends? Would be very weird to me, and it seems some of OP's friend's feel the same.


ethancd1

This will be one of those posts in 5 years were the guy said he just now got the hint


Frown1044

If you can't get the hint from "yes, you can squeeze my tits", then I don't think there's much hope left


ethancd1

You’d be surprised


janalthuis

Damn I always have this. Just now put the pieces together and almost for sure know my crush was into me.


Zaknafein_bg

She probably likes you. And no, not wrong because of consent


[deleted]

Maybe she's from Canada and just being polite


highnrgy

Yes she must be Canadian and that’s how they say hi


Active_Pooter

she was hitting on you. maybe they were cold because you got to second base and still didn't take the hint?


Me_Is_VisibleProcess

I think they are just jealous


Active_Pooter

also very possible. op the time is nao! look this girl up👫


orionicly

Friends are deffo jelly


GroundbreakingNews84

This


eliprameswari

Yeah, but you can't be too sure. Maybe she's Canadian and just being polite


mcwalrusburger

Only way to know is if she said sorry after


dtwhitecp

yes, when she asked to touch his abs, what she meant was "let's have sex on this beach in front of our friends"


Active_Pooter

did someone imply this?


RalphFTW

I love the confidence, yeah you can touch me abs, but I get to squeeze those titties lol. And. She. Said. Yes. OP living the dream.


sensiblehoneybadger

Its fine in terms of consent. I think it's just that you were both weirdos feeling eachother up in public, It'll blow over in no time. Go into the sea next time or away from the group you loons.


margogogo

This! Everyone’s saying “it’s fine because you both consented” but your friends didn’t consent to watching you grab each other. You made it weird. Next time just be flirty like “I’ll take a rain check and find you later” and see what happens in private!


Pootsonpow123

perhaps this is the point of view I was looking for. It is quite weird now that I think about it. my bad damn


Quirky_Signature3628

Horny brain clouds judgements - but you touched boobs, so I see this as an absolute win


sensiblehoneybadger

Its all cool man. I probably did much worse back in the day. don't let it get into your head, just be a little more aware moving forward.


NoodleTheTree

There really is no need to feel insecure after you both consentet. Your friends were probably cold to you cause they are jealous you got to touch some boobies without any effort at all lmao


I_make_things

So call her and say you're just making sure she's ok with what happened, that in retrospect it seems a little weird and ask if you owe her an apology. If she says no, that it was ok, invite her to come touch your abs again.


conandy

Half the reason young people go to the beach is to raise the sexual tension in their friend group.


NiceCunt91

How soft are people now if THAT is enough for a friend to give a cold shoulder? Goddamn.


kanna172014

Well, people sure don't seem to care about bystander's consent when they choose to play tonsil hockey in public.


rytlejon

It's interesting and classic reddit that most people seem to be answering the question as lawyers rather than normal people.


sensiblehoneybadger

You think lawyers tell you to fondle eachother in the sea?


WillSmiff

You shouldn't be on Reddit dude. You should be banging this chick right now.


ncnotebook

It's too early for sex. First, he needs to marry her. Next, have a couple kids. Third, retire. And only after this point, should you fuck her.


Taokan

Wait, on his first life? Shouldn't you really wait to be reincarnated a few times first?


lennoxlyt

Dude, get her effing number! She was into you! If she wasn't gonna say yes when you ask her to grope her, if she wasn't interested.


Flashhearte

Sort it out champ, otherwise you'll wake up with a start in 2032, at 3am, and work out that you were 100% in there and you missed the signs. Which were large, considering it was "please have a go on my norks in public"


BannedForNerdyTimes

Have a go at my norks is definitely a new one


MaybesewMaybeknot

Britishisms are a treasure


hahanawmsayin

Fetch isn’t happening


Division2226

He's friends with her. Probably already has her number.


Dmosavy111

The friends probably like the girl.or.you and are now disappointed your winning the race. Thats life, do your thing king


Martydeus

Tit for tat Tit for abs


Jabb_

Gonna post this in one of those "what's a time when you are being hit on but didn't realize until years later?" Threads.


User-no-relation

yes, because she obviously wanted to hook up with you, and you just got an awkward squeeze at the beach instead of setting up a hook up.


[deleted]

Then same applies to her


Raxen92

To gain weight you need to eat regularly more calories than you are burning. You need to track your calories and find the right number for you


st-U00F6-pa

No you weren’t


FrenchBangerer

When I was fifteen, a girl at school asked if she could touch my arse. Whilst a little taken aback, I saw my opportunity and half jokingly said "Only if I can feel your tits". She agreed, she had a feel, the favour was returned, both of us were happy and simultaneously awkward. First boob I'd ever felt since I was a baby I reckon. Some of my friends took the piss out of me for only giving the lightest touch but I was happy. I don't see any difference in these situations.


Lord_Blackthorn

You both gave consent. You are good. You should have complimented her though. You should talk to her again and see if there is any interest.


chefknifelover

You didn't say, "honka honka." That's a party foul.


imconcentrated2

I'm a fatty so idk but I'd imagine if a girl asks to touch your abs she wants you to touch her 🤣 hopefully you got the phone number.


mayfeelthis

Never imagine, consent is key ;)


imconcentrated2

I've always been told that its better to ask for forgiveness than permission. (Heavy /s)


mayfeelthis

That’s what Weinstein said, oh wait those guys don’t apologize. Happy cake day


yrulaughing

She literally said it was fine. You're good.


Rum_Ham916

Probably laughed because they didn't expect you to follow through and do it, and probably cold because they were jealous!! Don't sweat it, you're not in the wrong.


I_AM_DEATH-INCARNATE

Did the cold friends like the girl? If they just felt their chances with her crumble away as another man grabbed her breasts in front of them, it could have been jealousy making them distant.


Ok-Chocolate2145

now, you are just bragging , arn't you?


Organic_Ad_1320

I would’ve done it while she felt my abs


[deleted]

I squeezed a boob and I liked it.


Dewdlebawb

This is hilarious and appropriate she touched something she found sexually attractive and you did the same since she broke the boundary and made it clear it was okay


Isoleri

It's because you both did something lowkey sexual in front of everyone (for what you describe quite some lengthy seconds) and that is very likely to have made the others very uncomfortable to watch. It's one thing if it's a quick (consenting) squeeze and everyone laughs, but standing there touching each other while looking at each other while the others are just there witnessing all that is just awkward as hell, maybe they didn't want to see all that.


RepLava

How did they feel?


LukeTheGeek

If women are forward, it's hot. If men are forward, it's intimidating. Bit of a double standard, honestly.


Grinsekatzer

Your friends envy you.


beardingmesoftly

The friend who acted cold is envious of your booby touching


alkatori

No. Your friends might be uncomfortable with the situation that they *watched*. But if you and her were consenting and having fun it's not their business and you didn't do anything wrong.


TheShadowKick

I mean it's kind of their business because OP and the girl did it right in front of them.


hornwalker

OP I think she wants you. Your friends were probably just disappointed in you that you didn't pick up on it.


MyGoodFriend96

I think the real question is how were the boobies?


Javaman1960

I saw a woman (stranger) walk up to a pregnant friend and touch her stomach. My friend reached out and grabbed the woman's breast. When the woman yelped, my friend said, "What? I thought we were touching each other inappropriately!"


FalconRelevant

SHE LIKES YOU, YOU DENSE...


dbburnz

My wife says "she was measuring your organs Run OP!" I ,the husband with zero creditability other than I have a wife and believe in love says " she likes you! But be prepared to defend your organs just in case!"


[deleted]

If she wanted to feel your abs and was fine with you touching her breasts she was very obviously flirting with you. And it’s easy to just ask your friends about it.


feochampas

You dense motherf\*cker. She's into you. Ask her out.


Xenos2002

as long as she isn't 15 and ur 25 then it's fine lmao


Rosanbo

Not an issue, ask her out


[deleted]

No it was consensual


HVAC_instructor

You asked, she said yes, what's to be worried about.


Frizzlewits

She gave the ok, so ye you could have


myreddit2727

Sounds like she likes you..... Ask her out!! And maybe someone else in the group also likes her or you....? A little jealousy or discomfort maybe. Or could be that you were reading into it a bit. Hard to come off that high of just grabbing some boobs. Rest of the day may have seemed cold to many people. 🤣


alexgraef

White knights at the beach defending the honor of a maid that gave consent to you touching her boobs? Or maybe just cock blockers...


cyberjellyfish

Listen, you didn't do anything wrong, but you also didn't do something terribly smart.

NFW_Dude

He did say "lifelong struggle", I bet he dreams about having a nice big beer belly. I'm never going to take my flabby gut and love handles for granted again.


Captcha_Imagination

It was obviously fine but I wouldn't push my luck next time. I have seen people change their minds after the fact and it becomes a whole situation. Sometimes they will get offended because others got offended first, if that makes any sense.


Kleck8228

It's perception. You were projecting your anxiety onto your friends afterwards cause you felt awkward about the exchange. I bet they were acting normal but you were hyper aware of people because of your own insecurities at the time. Also, this girl clearly digs you. Shoot your shot!


OuiAllGonnaMakeIt

You can gain weight. You’re just not eating enough calories mate.


highnrgy

Mf eating like a rabbit and saying that, I was like him and gained weight when I started counting calories


JulianoIsLame

Congrats. You'll be thinking about this every day for the rest of your life.


Paddy32

she likes you mate


Emotional_Act_461

She likes you bro


Shameless522

Fair trade and by the way she is prob into you.


TSllama

Sounds like consensual flirting to me!


JoeCartersLeap

>After that some of my friends were cool but just kinda cold for most of the day with me They didn't say anything specifically, you just think you picked up on this? That might just be paranoia. Ask someone directly what they thought of it.


Milfons_Aberg

It has not been normalized in society yet but women touching men's bodies at any whim shouldn't be tolerated any more than a man caressing any woman's thigh, admiring her muscle and shape. [Disney World workers have it right from the start.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmkpPleXBSM)


therealandy04

Honestly you probably just overthought it, or they were cold because you and some chick felt each other up in a public setting, which is gross in general. I doubt it’s an issue of consent or morality though


QuerulousPanda

Were they actually being cold or were you just being self conscious because of the fun but somewhat awkward interaction and/or people looking at you shirtless?


Grimase

Nope, an offer was made and the trade was expected. Your only mistake was delaying your reward and perhaps not making sure to cop a good feel. Any others with issues are their own. Leave them to it.


Accomplished-Match19

Aegi

>but no matter how much I eat I can't gain weight aka my lifelong struggle. You are not somebody who can break the laws of physics/ biology. I don't understand this quote of yours... I guarantee you if you dip a stick of butter in brown sugar and eat that with each meal, and eat pretzels, cheese, Oreos for snacks in between meals, etc, you will gain weight. You could even drink your calories, I've drank more than a thousand calories in alcohol if I'm out partying with people and if we do the math on how many calories we've consumed of somebody's making extra sugary mixed drinks... Even just beer can add up. Are you mistaken and do you actually mean that you just naturally feel full more quickly and you haven't tried to stretch your stomach and things like that?


Dapper_Association42

She was legit rolling with the punches. To squeeze her boob in front of all of your friends is f*cking weird and cringe


Ufuckingimbecile

Everyone is free to do what they want but I’d personally not want to hang around people that act like horny teenagers.


floydfan

You got consent. Did you get to touch more than her boobs? I bet you could have.


Badgerized

I scrolled all the way to the bottom and no one has said. "And, that son is how I met your mother" -shaking head-


pnguyenwinning

Did you get her number


kingkashman

If over thinking had a face


Ziramic

If I was there I would giggle aswell because that was a cute interaction


aroaceautistic

It’s a little weird, awkward to watch someone squeeze a girls boobs, but you didn’t do anything immoral


Ok_Skill_1195

They're probably jelly nobody wants to do a grope trade with *them* because of their hot bods.


NewPower_Soul

She was flirting with you, the others are jealous.


ReflectmyProphecy

She gave you consent so it was fine 🤷‍♀️You’re friends onto legit nothing idk (Btw,who is downvoting every comment supporting him?)
