    That attitude had to piss Epstein off because his whole thing is networking powerful people to get more powerful people around to blackmail some of them to get access to more people to blackmail and Elon being all like “oh I don’t care to go just to see some UN people and help you network and advance your agenda” had to push him towards the shit-list and the ghosting by Ghislaine we see in the later emails. Elon literally being entitled about the child abuse network and refusing to do the cover story stuff like all the others, just incredible energy.

      It’s not even “refusing to advance an agenda” because Epstein was just inviting Elon over for an obvious orgy. It’s just failing a vibe check. It’s like being invited up for coffee and going “Caffeine AT THIS HOUR? No thanks, I like to maintain a healthy circadian rythm.” Just the biggest condescending doofus energy.

          If it’s any consolation I was once at a party where an attractive acquaintance is invited me to do body shots. She made out with me when I went to get the lemon out of her mouth and all I could think was “wow! How sweet of my friend to help me this much with getting the lemon into my mouth. She must think I was having a hard time of grabbing it.”
          It took me a few years to realize she was coming onto me

            That is painful and I relate. I see you have no pronouns listed but this story certainly brings to mind memes about certain dating scenes being stymied for wont of waiting for one party to make a move… except in this case it sounds like your friend knew what she was about and our hero (you) wasn’t ready to pick up on it. Like I said, relatable.
