RP/ERP consent and gaslighting
When someone says that they do not want to rp with you, or erp with you, or they do not feel comfortable with you, the best way to react is:
ask if there is anything you can do to make them feel more comfortable
simply say you are sorry and cease all contact until they talk to you, if they ever do again.
Do not ask them why they feel the way they do, they will tell you if they want to, or are able. Do not press the issue because if they are already upset, you might trigger further bad feelings and make them more upset, or escalate the situation to an even worse situation.
Clearer heads prevail, and giving someone time to sort everything out is MUCH better than gaslighting them or manipulating them into doing what you want. Coming back at them with insults about their previous partners/relationships or their mental health is also a very lousy way to attack a person and you should never do it, period.
NO ONE EVER OWES YOU AN EXPLANATION FOR WHY THEY FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE.
