First, the OP should not be worring about it to begin with, it's more of an action situation, delete, block, move on and stop obsessing. I'm sorry but I'm not a proponent of "lets talk about every single burp and fart and analyze it to death. From the evidence presented in this thread, the girl is the chaser, the guy is the chasee and he has done nothing wrong. (not to say that he hasn't but from the evidence he hasn't so far). Second, being passive aggressive is not two "dirty words" and has gotten a bad reputation. There is nothing wrong with using it in a situation that is appropriate. An individual should utilize every tool at their disposal, not just those deemed "worthy". Given the right set of circumstances, being passive aggressive will yield you the best results.

They matter and she asks: Result = dialogue about WHY they matter - could be good, could be bad.
They don't matter and she asks: Result = he explains, and she's happy.

As you can see - the worst outcomes result from NOT asking.
Hmm. Sorry, but I don't see. How is the assumption that "They matter and she does nothing: Result = bad" made? They matter to who? Party A, Party B, Party C, Unknown Party D (the jealous current husband of nipple licking gal sending pics off her account without her knowledge trying to start shit ) all of them, 1 or 2 of them? There are too many unknowns for the assumption to made that a certain action will definitely result in a certain outcome.

I don't see HOW asking is even an issue. This is not an issue. Why make it one? Save the obsessing crap and being overbearing for those actions that warrant it. I haven't read anything in this thread that warrants sleepless nights, being physically ill or confrontation.
