@LukeAlmighty That’s not negging, she dropped a great pickup line and he failed to pick up on it.

@LukeAlmighty OMG you are such a sperg. Negging is when something sounds like a compliment on the surface but has a subtle implication which is negative and undermines the other person’s confidence. This chick is saying “I barely know you and you already seem like you might be husband material”.

Dude failed to pick up on that and she was complaining about this. There was no negging anywhere in this convo.

And you failed to pick up on the absolute obvious implication, that it was not as big of a compliment, as it would seem on surface, since it has a subtle implications, which are negative and should undermine the person's confidence.

@LukeAlmighty @dave Dave's right, not to explain the pick up line but she's saying that she wants to marry him. That's prime wife material.

Also this is a much funnier convo if you replace negging with pegging

Why do I have ti be on the fucking autistic side of the internet?

@beardalaxy @dave
Seriously, what kind of mental model makes you assume I didn't understand that the point of her joke was, that she wants to marry him?
