In hindsight, the ideal response would have been, “Well, maybe we can change that tonight.”
However, my actual response was, “I’m in the same boat,” accompanied by a facepalm emoji 🤦♀️.
Story #5
My boyfriend has this adorable lack of skill when it comes to flirting. Our history spans 15 years of being great friends. All along, there were these hidden attractions between us, but we each happened to be in relationships at different times.
Around 6 years ago, when we were both single, I decided to have him over for a hot tub evening. I set the scene with candles and everything, but remarkably, he didn’t make a move. Even after we got out of the hot tub, I sat with my head in his lap, hoping for some sort of reaction. To my surprise, he went completely nonverbal.
