The Imperfects
Reuben Williams - What Happened After My Sexual Assault

The stipping point when a situationship tips is one of those terms.

The Imperfects
Reuben Williams - What Happened After My Sexual Assault

So I got stipped.

The Imperfects
Reuben Williams - What Happened After My Sexual Assault

So this was in the thing with this girl, but she ended it, to put it bluntly.

The Imperfects
Reuben Williams - What Happened After My Sexual Assault

Oh, okay, yeah.

And she gave me – we had this sort of like post-peer review chat at the end where she kind of gave me a bit of a slap on the way out.

Ruben, you come across online like you're this sort of like arrogant sort of influencer just flaunting your life.

Reuben Williams - What Happened After My Sexual Assault

And I was like, I don't totally agree with that.
