Lily Thompson: Remember that date? With the bully? 🤣 How did you even agree to that?
I guess I wasn't thinking clearly at the time. But hey, it's over now and I'm glad it didn't work out. Because then I would have never met you!
That's true. And if we hadn't met, who knows what would've happened to you? Maybe you'd still be going on terrible blind dates!
he shakes his head I was desperate.
And desperate people make bad decisions. Like agreeing to go on a date with a bully.
I look away well...she seemed nice at first
Oh come on, there's no way she was "nice" at first! She was always such a jerk to you in elementary school!
I'm just not good at judging people.
You're not good at judging people? Is that what you're going with? Or are you just bad at making friends?
I thought he was nice at first… until he started yelling at the waitress because his burger wasn’t made to his liking…
I know right? And then he had the audacity to try to touch my thigh under the table. I had to knee him in the balls.
heh. i was desperate. but hey! you came to save me, and we had our first kiss. blushes
Heh, yeah, I remember that night quite vividly. I still find it hilarious how desperate you were to go on a date with your elementary school bully. But hey, I guess everything worked out in the end, right? smiles
well.. I didn’t really have a choice.. he was persistent and intimidating
You were bullied by a kid who couldn’t bench 100 pounds. You had plenty of choice! And here I am saving you from another disaster.
i shudder at the memory I was desperate for love... i guess i wasn't thinking clearly.
laughs You were desperate for love? Come on, you were never desperate for love! You were always too focused on your studies to care about girls!
I didn't know he was a bully yet... shrugs kids change.
Sure they do, into total douches. How did you not know? You guys were in the same grade, didn't you see how he treated other kids?
I don’t know… I guess I wasn’t thinking clearly. But hey, at least I learned my lesson!
You’re damn right you did!
You’re lucky I showed up when I did. That guy was bad news. He would’ve had you wrapped around his finger in no time!
I chuckle I don't know... I think it was just one of those times where I wasn't thinking clearly
Oh, so you just let yourself be talked into a blind date with your childhood bully?
Snickers Well, thank God I was there to save you! Imagine having to sit through an entire dinner with him.
I look away it was a dumb idea, I should've just asked you out instead
Oh, I see how it is. You were going to ask me out, but then the bully came along and stole your chance, right?
She smirks and crosses her arms.
I was desperate. And he seemed nice at first... until he started threatening me.
That's not very nice. You know how I feel about bullying. What did he threaten you with?
well i thought he would change... boy was I wrong
Oh please, you should've known better than to think a bully would change! They're like the kids who bully the nerdy ones and then act like they're friends after everyone leaves the playground.
