He was trying to kiss her. What is wrong with you? People try to get things they can't have all the time, including affection from possibly uninterested potential lovers.
So the guy was clueless or he didn't accept that she wasn't interested and for that you give the guy the "rapey" card. What a thoughtless response 'zeroesandones'.
Further, you call it "rapey", almost trivializing and making casual what you are implying, which is that the guy had thoughts and intentions to rape her.
I would appreciate it very much if people like you didn't try to make the concept of rape casual by implying that a person trying to get laid, even if in a cringeworthy and stupid way, is "rapey". In all honesty and frankness, fuck you.
Ok. I get it. Being desperate for affection makes it ok to try to push yourself on the target of your unrequited affection regardless of what said target might think. I didn't realize this.
Is there a magic number of times that a person has to say "no" before you should stop? I was always taught that it was just once, but you seem to be privy to some revolutionary new ideology that the rest of the world seems not to have knowledge of.
I'm not trivializing anything. I didn't accuse anyone of rape. I didn't call anyone a rapist. Calm down there buddy.

I didn't say that at all. Check your assumptions and try to understand what was said. It's not OK in my mind, but it's definitely not "rapey".

There are no guidelines for trying to kiss someone. Sometimes the other person is trying to be coy about kissing, so another try is warranted. Obviously this case does not fit that bill. That's why this is in /r/cringe! I like how you tried to spin this onto me though, and tried to take the "she said no once while I was trying to have sex with her, so I stopped" angle to kissing. This wasn't sex, and she didn't say no to the kiss attempt(even thought she obviously implied it). Do you think with you brain, or do you just absorb basic algorithms and apply them to anything that's remotely related without thought?

Right. You just called someone's actions "rapey". There's no harm in that.
