I love this thread because it makes the average Redditor sound completely unhinged and I totally see why they fell into this trap, because it's one that leftoids in general tend to fall into in lots of circumstances - that if a privileged person (eg. a moid) gets in the habit of doing something for an oppressed person (eg. a foid), then they are an butthole if they just randomly stop deciding to do that nice thing. Foids shouldn't have to walk home in dangerous circumstances, thus if you were helping her not have to do that and then you stop, then you are responsible for her having to walk home and thus YTA. The average Redditor cannot think beyond this to discover the underlying principle that you cannot place these sort of long-term burdens on people just because they did something nice for you once or twice, otherwise you are attaching a massive cost to being nice and that's probably a bad idea.
You can see that some of them recognize the problem with that logic, so they pivot to a backup argument: "You were doing something nice because you wanted to get laid, and that's bad." They think this is some sort of dunk, but again it makes them look unhinged because of course people go out of their way to get a date or laid, and you can't treat this as presumptive dishonesty.

I dont see how walking someone home in the hope that she enjoys your company and wants a relationship is different from buying someone coffee or a meal in the hope that she enjoys your company and wants a relationship
In both cases youre providing a service/courtesy.
