Conversation overheard from my bedroom window, "I mean, like I love you I guess but like I'm drunk and I like think he's so hot too." Immediately understanding that this was a keeper, I typed it in as my Facebook status. Days later, however, it kept at me for some reason and, in a night of insomnia, I think I began to understand why.
Where does the relationship go from there?
In a perfect world, both parties to the conversation were so drunk that neither remembers what was said, or even that there was a conversation. But, for all of those of us who went to college, we rarely get that lucky. In a much more probable scenario, they both remember—or at least he remembers. So what does he do with that? Does the relationship continue, knowing that really, at least when she’s drunk, there is another “he” that she finds “really hot”? Does the relationship fade away quietly, both hoping that it is never again mentioned? Does he confront her? If he confronts her, what in the WORLD does she say? I feel like there is no way back from here, as intriguing as it would be for me to be an observer on this relationship.
Whatever the choice, let’s hope it happens outside my bedroom window again.
