PCoop: So you’re going out with someone else?
FinnG: No, but I’ve developed feelings for someone else. There’s this guy I like. He was good to me when I was in a bad place. Can I even be in love with both of them?
PCoop: I ask myself the same question. Can we?
FinnG: I’m guessing this isn’t helping you, is it?
PCoop: No.
FinnG: But can you love two people?
PCoop: Yes, but acting on that is different. It has to be a consensual thing between the three. I can’t just be like, well, while you were gone, I fell for him.
FinnG: So the other guy is coming back.
PCoop: Eventually.
FinnG: Then you’re right. You have to wait. Though, if it was me who was the one who was gone for a long time, I would understand if my SO fell for someone else.
PCoop: That’d be unfair to you.
FinnG: It’d hurt me more to learn that my SO was in so much pain and no one was there to take care of her.
PCoop: Thank you.
FinnG: For? The last text wasn’t some permission for you to go out with the other guy. That’s totally up to you. It’s just my opinion.
PCoop: :ROFL: emoji.
PCoop: Thank you for listening.
FinnG: Do I get a pass, and you’ll write with me?
PCoop: No. We have an agreement.
FinnG: Fine, but I’m here if you need to discuss this other guy with me.
PCoop: If you have to talk about your love life, I’ll be here too.
FinnG: So what happens if you fall for a third guy?
PCoop: Have a good day, Finn.
FinnG: Don’t leave me hanging again!
FinnG: I’m still waiting for the answer about your eye color.
FinnG: Hello!
FinnG: Fine, I’ll figure out the essay and a way to get more answers. Take care, Ms. Cooperson.
