My friend and I have a tradition of playing video games at least every week together ever since we were in middle school together. As we got older and I moved away we maintained that through online games.
One night (a few years ago) my friend and I had our scheduled night to play together, when i got a text from a girl I’ve been seeing. She asked me if we could do something tonight. I told her not tonight since it was my gaming night. She send me a frowning face and asked if she could just come by and watch me. I didn’t want to be rude so i made it clear to her that I can’t promise I’ll give her any attention since it is the one night per week i have set aside for me and my best friend. (he also was going through a divorce so this was our way of talking). She eagerly said she was ok with that and she just didn’t want to be a lone and wanted to watch. I told her that would be fine and that i would unlock the door to come in whenever she arrived.
