“So this was the woman that I’ve been messaging for three, maybe four months now, but we’d never met.”
“Yeah. The one you have a bunch of stuff in common with.”
Megan nodded. “Yeah, and she was so easy to talk to. I thought my biggest concern would be that we were never going to be anything more than friends.”
“And it wasn’t?”
“Nope. So, you know how most people use the best photo they have as their profile picture? Like, it’s too good. It’s from a wedding where they had someone do their makeup or from ten years ago when they were still in college. And then it’s hard not to be a little disappointed when the person you meet doesn’t look at all like that.”
“Yeah,” Heather agreed, even though she had no idea. Although that was just another reason to never try online dating.
“Well, this was the opposite. Don’t get me wrong. Her profile picture was good. But in person? Oh my god.”
“Beautiful?”
“Stunning,” Megan said, pressing her lips together. “Just stunning.”
“So what went wrong?”
“Nothing for the first two hours. It was as close as I’ve ever experienced to a perfect date. We went to a bar that we’d both been to before. Really casual. The conversation flowed. I should have known it was too good to be true.”
“What happened?”
“A man came up behind her and put his hand around her waist while we were up at the bar, and I was ready to step in and let this guy know that she wasn’t interested.”
“Oh no.” Heather could sense where this was going. “Please tell me you didn’t get thrown out.”
“No. I didn’t get thrown out. There were no words had or threats made, because she turned around and put her arms around his shoulders and kissed him.”
“What?” Heather’s jaw dropped.
“She was recruiting me.”
“As in…”
“For a throuple. Not even a random threesome. That’s why we’d been messaging for so long. She really thought we had a connection. And we did.”
“Did she not read your profile? That you’re only interested in women?”
Megan sighed. “I don’t know. I still can’t believe that happened. That is not at all how I imagined my night going.”
“Wow.”
“Anyway, enough about me. What did you get up to last night?”
Heather sucked in a breath, a smile threatening to take over as she tried to gather her thoughts.
“Oh. I’m guessing you had a much better night than I did,” Megan said with a smirk.
Heather ran a hand through her hair. “I met this amazing woman last night.” She didn’t even know what to say after that. As close of a friend as Megan was, she wasn’t going to go into the details of last night with her. It just didn’t feel right.
“And?”
“And, for once, I know that it’s not going to work out, and I’m not going to delude myself into thinking that it’s ever going to.”
“What? That’s very cryptic. Is she married?”
“No.”
