Good-boy points vs bad-boy points is iceberg slang for the nice-guy ledger: you were helpful, therefore you are owed. In practice: there is no ledger. Warmth plus intent beats harmless plus invoice. Polarization and sexualization are the missing half, not 'become a jerk.'[1][2]
Method
- Drop the invoice. If you want her, show it.
- Keep the parts of 'good' that are actually standards (not cruel, not a liar).
- Bad-boy as a costume is tryhard.
Failure mode
Collecting points. She did not agree to the game.
