I don’t know how to flirt. I haven’t done it in a really long time – I haven’t dated in over a year, so I’m out of practice. So when I made a joke about snapping someone over my knee and he asked me to do it to him? Over call, no less? I didn’t know how to respond. I sat there, in front of our friends on face time, dumbfounded and red in the cheeks like a fool.
And you know what? I liked it. Loved it. Him getting comfortable with jokes like that has been honestly simply lovely for me.
He keeps calling me his boyfriend, even though he still has his partner. “I miss my boyfriend” whenever we haven’t talked In a while, and of course my other friends feel the need to tease me.
I wish I knew how to be bold with him. I don’t know how. How to say something striking that gets someone flustered. Everytime I think of something it just seems corny to me. Flirting is overrated anyway, right? But he does it so effortlessly, and it’s not that bad. I don’t know.
I miss feather.
