If you’re eating all the candy tonight, what are your plans for day of, then?
For Valentine’s, I mean.
Bridget
Is this your not-so-subtle way of asking whether I’m seeing someone?
Will
Haha I guess it is
I giggle aloneinto my wine glass, a thrill coursing through me. It’s honestly so odd we haven’t even touched upon the subject of significant others. I guess, if I’m being honest with myself, I’ve been too scared to ask.
Bridget
Wouldn’t it be kind of inappropriate for us to talk this much if I was in a relationship?
Will
What do you mean?
Bridget
Well, you’re a dude. And we text each other all day. I wouldn’t be happy if my partner were texting someone from the opposite sex all the time. It just isn’t appropriate.
Unless they were gay. Are you gay?
OMG I’m so sorry that’s not appropriate to ask.
Will
Jfc you need to calm down. LOL
I’m not offended at all by your question.
And I think you know I’m not gay, Bridget
Bridget
What is that supposed to mean?
Will
I am very much straight and single.
Bridget
And ready to mingle? Haha
Will
Maybe.
