Let's get consensual VIOLATING SOMEONE’S SPACE IS NEVER OKAY. Read the signs. If someone’s not into you, it's not an indication to try harder. You should never make someone feel obligated to interact with you and you should never feel obligated to interact with someone else. It’s important to always communicate openly. Whenever in doubt, consider asking, “is this okay?” And if you ever see someone violating someone else’s space, say something. Creating a consensual future is something we have to do together
No matter what signals you think you’re getting, never assume you have consent. The best way to ensure both parties are comfortable in any situation is to talk about it. Don’t worry, getting consent is not a turn off. If your partner is already into you, it’s a turn on.
Anyone can withdraw consent at any point and for any reason. To ensure both parties are comfortable, it’s important to always keep the lines of communication open.
