Its not soft perversion. It is companionship. Its hard to describe. If you have been close to one person romantically (or in your case marriage) and its take away due to a break up or divorce as the case maybe, people look for the emptiness that is has come in.
Its hard to go from being married to being single when you always had someone else to look after or someone else to look after you.
For me its fine. I cast no judgement on the matter. Pakistani aunties on the other hand I can not speak for.
Wait till one of the really huge aunties like Psquared and red velvet show up.
Thanks for the reference, CM Uncle. And by "huge".......I hope you mean renowned :p

Bobby**, your recent post is a bit confusing. In my opinion either one of two things is going on here:
1) Some point during this platonic friendship, the girl might have developed feelings for the guy. She could have expected him to make a move and he didn't and left her hanging with little further communication. This could have have caused her to become angry and call him a "player".
2) The girl ONLY wanted a friendship and valued the friendship. She was hoping that the guy will not end the friendship just because she couldn't offer him more than that. And when he left, she got upset and called him a player for ending a good friendship only because he didn't get what he wanted.
I personally don't see an issue of "perversion" here. Mind games......maybe..........but not perversion (too strong a word).
