My girl is currently in the part of her menstrual cycle where, according to Rollo, she is receptive to Alpha behavior. (Proliferative phase) For months now she has never resisted sex during this phase, save for situations where I've lost frame resulting in shit-tests. Such scenarios are usually easily resolved when I employ dominant behavior.

The issue I'm faced with is the following. She sprained a knee two days ago, she went to the doctor and they told her she was fine as there was no actual/direct injury to the area. When asked if she felt pain she describes it only as mild discomfort, and perhaps a little painful when she walks.

When she's home however, and I'm in her presence she breaks into these bouts of sporadic crying. When I stop paying attention she cries, when I pay attention she stops. Like a child. She wants me to be with her constantly, to the point where she wanted me to miss the gym to spend time with her, which I refused apologetically but insincerely. I know this is a manipulative tactic, but she's still sexually open despite the predicament.

Since relationships are transactional should I overlook or play along with this behavior? If after all, my desires are met why shouldn't I indulge her in this child-like comfort she's begging for.

What I'm curious about though, since this is the stage where women usually shit-test men, is my sacrificed time being perceived as beta behavior by her? Since she's sexually available perhaps not?
