Of course I don't. But I think people underestimate how patient and reasonable I can be, too. How
restrained
I can be.

Haven't known you long enough to estimate anything. But if you say you're gonna be restrained, I believe you.

He's great.

[Uncomfortable, sure, but he's given up trying to defend himself from people's weird horny jokes.]
"Later" isn't a date. But you know where to find me.

[This is a lie.]
But yeah, okay. Later.
