What stands out
- One night stand as told to girlfriends.
- Exaggeration of the young woman's seduction techniques.
- Unawareness of the situation: obviously this man is not a "good person", but we want so much for it to work that we attribute to him all the qualities, we try to convince ourselves that he is a "good guy".
- Meeting that quickly took a sexual turn.
- It is with irony that one presents a situation where the person is treated as if she does not exist in the eyes of the other or where she is mistreated.
- Beautiful reflection on what we accept in order to "please someone", to not "displease" or even to give the illusion that someone is interested in us.
- Unhappy outcome where the young woman does not value herself and tolerates disrespectful or violent situations.
- The situation presented here is funny and ironic due to its exaggeration. Nevertheless, there is still a sad background in such a story.
