Drunk girl’s friend. Reward for the do-gooder. [MF]

So I sometimes hang out in Chicago between jobs. I work contract work all over the country and have / had a relationship with two college friends who both moved out there after graduation. In fact they were roommates there at one point. I’d love to tell you the story you’re hoping for but it’s not really sexy or adventurous. Just an easy friends with benefits thing we all kind of Adulted our way into. The arrangement was sorted out as dispassionately as a corporate merger. I mean we scheduled little 3 person talks from time to time, when one of them was in a relationship and I switched to staying with the other one when I was in town. To, you know, make sure we were all still emotional detached and shit.

They were not into the 3 way thing and I could respect it and never brought it up. It actually got worse when they became roommates because when I visited I had to stay on the couch unless one of them was out of town / in a relationship.
