This is how I met my partner, sorta. Story time:
It's Saturday night, we were hanging out, and he shows up with free booze and asks who wants to come party with him. There was some initial interest, but then most people remembered they had responsibilities the next day and decided not to. A friend of mine wanted to go, and I wasn't about to let her go off alone with a strange guy, so I went with. There was this other guy that wanted in my pants, so as soon as I decided to go, he also decided to go. 🙄
So it was the four of us, and this other guy is being weird and getting frustrated that our clothes weren't falling off as we were drinking, so he left. The stranger is telling stories and being entertaining, and most importantly, not being a creep. It's getting late, and he suggests that we can take his bed and he can sleep on the couch.
So he goes off to brush his teeth, and her and I start helping each other take our clothes off, and she starts making out with me. We're half undressed, making out on his bed, when he comes in to get pajamas, and we invite him into the mix.
She doesn't want to have sex, but she did want to make out with us while him and I were having sex. We all go a few rounds, and eventually fall asleep.
Her and I wake up before him the next morning, we discussed plans. She had somewhere to be and offered me a ride, but I decided to stick around at his place for morning sex, then we went out for breakfast and really got to know each other.
Neither of us really wanted a serious relationship, but liked each other enough to be FWB for a while. I moved in with him after other housing plans with friends fell through, and after a year of living together, we realized we were actually dating. We're poly, so other partners have come and gone, but him and I have been together for the past 15 years. My friend is monogamous, but we're still all friends.
Oh jeeze, TIL there's another Figma that doesn't make anime dolls.
