To go through with it

I just watched a scene from a series and basically a girl was making out with her boyfriend but then he calls her "love" and she realizes that it is a demon that she's known for a while now who has possessed her boyfriend's body only because he fancies her. So she is angry and slaps his face (fair enough lol). But it's just got me wondering how she would ask him if it wasn't for him calling her "love" and then her realizing it wasn't her boyfriend if he would have gone all the way? Would he have gone through with it (meaning more than just kissing her or would he have stopped at some point because it was inappropriate)? How could she ask him that? "Were you going to...???"

I hope I'm clear. Thank you.
Without getting vulgar, the way you said it is fine. "To go all the way."
Ok but what if sex wasn't involved and it was something else? Like you're on a mission, you have to lie to someone and that person finds out the truth and then ask you if you were going to?
Maybe '"How far would you have gone?'

Of course, raises the questions like how far would she have gone? And did she want him to go all the way?

Cross-posted, and in reply to your first question.

Well if you read well, the girl is angry and slaps him so the answer is no.
Thank you for your answer, I like your question "How far would you have gone".
I don’t understand the question/context. 👁 Confused :confused:
Really? I gave as many details as possible though. It's from the series "The Vampire Diaries". A bad vampire is sort of in love with a girl vampire (she happens to be on the "nice" side) and she has a boyfriend. He fancies her and has been coming on to her for a while but she sort of rejects him. And one time there is a scene where she is kissing her actual boyfriend, but the mean vampire who is very powerful has possessed her boyfriend's body so he's the one kissing her. He has a habit of calling her "love" and then while kissing he says "love" so the girl stops and is like "what? what did you call me love" because her boyfriend never calls her that and then she realizes what really is going on and slap the guy's face.

So my question is, what would the question be if she wanted to ask him if he was actually going to stop at some point or not (or have some conscience and stop at some point)?
How far would you have gone?
Would you have gone all the way?
Would you have gone to second base / third base?
Would you have gone all the way?
Would you have gone to second base / third base?
Can I use these two even if it's not sex related or not?
If she's in that much of a hurry, she could omit the 'or not' at the end. 👁 Smile :)
Ok I just thought maybe there was something shorter or more idiomatic to say to express this. My favorite is still "How far would you have gone?" though 👁 Smile :)

Thank you everyone!

“second base” and “third base” are about sex(ual activity).
Yes, sometimes context is everything. Now we understand.
Others have pretty much answered it so, now, it just comes down to personal taste.
"Just how far were you planning to go?"
“second base” and “third base” are about sex(ual activity).
What about all the way? Could you use it for someone who had to lie to you but you busted them? Such as "Would you have gone all the way with this lie?"?
What about all the way?
No, that one is not specific to sexual activity. It can be about anything where “all the way” makes sense.
"Would you have gone all the way with this lie?"

So I take it this sentence would be correct?
I’d need to know the context to be able to respond. If you want to explore this further, you should start a new thread. 👁 Wink ;)
