I couldn't in good conscience agree to New England as I was a staunch Dolphins fan. He was thinking Patriots, I was thinking St. These exchanges being via internet, I would respond in kind, and there was nothing that felt inappropriate about them.įinally, with the Super Bowl approaching he suggested we make a bet. There was nothing sexual about the exchanges per se, but every once in a while there would be a little innuendo thrown in as a tension breaker. Weeks followed and I looked forward to hearing from him. I wasn't looking for a hook up, and was on my defensive, but the conversations melted away my misgivings. He began pleasantly and we developed a rapport about sports and other mundane things. Only months earlier I had been snooping around a male-for-male message board out of pure curiosity when he started the conversation. I sat in my apartment on my couch trying to make sense of what I was doing.
