    I do think it’s funny for the supposed child of the pair to call it a fruitless pursuit, but also kind of appropriate, age wise!

    Time to get the birds and bees talk, fruit of the pursuit.

      Yeah well, that’s just my translation of “simping” in this context while trying to avoid using slang myself.

      “Unsuccessful courting” might be better.

      I’m not sure if it’s really used in the context of married people.

        My flirty comments usually got the well-deserved eye roll from my partner. And I would do anything they ask for, unconditionally. They would, too, but usually managed to do it before I had the chance to ask for anything. Definitely the GOAT.

        I can see how to a child this may look as simping.
