That's a good point. Using a shared interest to entice someone to have a conversation with you can't possibly be worse than using a shared interest to entice someone to have sex with you.

If you are willing to do certain things to get sex (like have a conversation you would otherwise not have wanted to bother with), you have to accept that sometimes you will still fail to get sex. Other people are not obligated to repay you for these willfully done things, even when they are aware of the unilateral agreement you made up in your head.

Thanks - you summed it up far better than I did.

I'd like to make it clear at no point do I think the conversation obligated Abed to date or sleep with bar guy! Just that I could see where the secret was coming from.

And Abed didn't use a shared interest to entice a conversation about Farscape from bar guy he used an unreciprocated interest?

I think this is more or less where I stand on the issue, from what I've read. (Never seen the ep in question, so my opinion is secondary here, I just really like talking about these kinds of dynamics.) I think leading someone on is a shitty thing to do, but it doesn't sound like that's what Abed did. Now if he'd been flirting with the guy, that would be another story.
