Ace says keeping your options open and dating multiple people isnāt inherently wrong.
Cam asks whether that makes someone a hoe.
Ace calls the question projection.
But hereās where the plot thickens: if your own relationship history illustrates the exact behavior being questioned, calling the criticism āprojectionā doesnāt automatically make it so.
Maybe itās projection. Maybe itās pandering. Or maybe the uncomfortable answer is simply that the same standard should apply to everyone including the person explaining it.
Consistency is a funny thing: it becomes very easy to preach until the mirror gets involved.
