After the season finale of the improv show, MG and SD decided to go out drinking at her favorite bar. MG was sexting this guy she met on Bumble and had one hot night with last week. So hot, in fact, that she was being treated for a UTI and trying to keep the guy at bay through sexting until she had worked through all the medication. She was glad she could live vicariously through MG for these kind of trysts. She could never have one herself, no matter how much SD and MG tried to convince her otherwise.
As she read through the sexting texts, she felt the need to do it herself. She started to text with KSL a little, but never really got up the nerve to get it to sexting level. Light flirting was about all she could achieve. He was really terrible at texting and words in general. She missed face to face time with him.
MG told her that she was going to have to step up her game and try harder if she wanted to hook up with someone. MG was under the impression that to get over someone you had to get under someone else. It was so hard to explain to people where she really was emotionally. She didn't feel broken-hearted, jilted. It had just ended, and now she was a single person. She was pretty much at peace, really just trying to not freak out over being alone. She didn't feel like she needed to "get over" her marriage. It needed it's own mourning time. Plus, legally they were still married.
Instead she opted for self-depreciation. She said that no matter how hard she tried, she was still 35, overweight, and too weird to really date. She was demi-sexual, no way would she let someone she just met into her house and into something that intimate. She couldn't say the arrangement she and KSL had come to either, so she really had to watch what she said.
"No one would sleep with me, and I'm okay with that." She told MG.
"KSL would sleep with you." MG pointed out.
Time for the performance part of the evening. "Of course KSL would sleep with me, he'd sleep with anyone. It's not exactly a compliment." She regretted the comment, as she saw on MG's face that it made her a little sad to be included in that specific "everybody." What else could she have said? A full on denial wouldn't fly at all. She thought better of telling her that KSL would sleep with MG given the opportunity. It might be hate sex, but he would still do her in a second.
The conversation continued the next morning over mimosas and bloody marys. SD also thought that she should just go out and sleep with someone, anyone, to help her get over it. She again wanted to explain that she had gotten over it already and just needed some alone time, but thought better of it. These were girls who would love to be in a relationship, and she was still dying to see how she would make it alone. But she also wanted some companionship, but nothing really serious. She and KSL were on their way to being the Great Casual...he just had to break up with the girlfriend and move out first.
The wait was killing her.
