I enjoyed this Witt! In particular I liked the end where you are willing to put yourself in his shoes and assess whether your intentions were part of what caused the disconnect with Jax, as well as the larger question of how to have primarily physical relationships ethically and while still maintaining self-respect. I do think perhaps you were a little harsh on yourself (it didn't seem like manipulation to me) but the willingness to be vulnerable and introspective instead of just feeling rejected and anger, as many might, was refreshing and interesting to read.
