Hello?
Today 10:45 PM
?
Hi!
??
who tf is this
Oh! Sorry!
This is going to sound really strange actually…
you have 10 seconds until i block you
Wait!
Okay.
Have you been to Hidden Harbor recently? The bar off Shady Ave?
5 seconds
Your number is written on one of the bathroom stalls.
…
my number?
Yes.
details
now
You know, a ‘please’ would be appreciated.
you are joking
YOU text ME (a complete stranger btw) at night telling me that my personal phone number is written on a bar toilet for ANYONE to see and you want me to be polite about it?
Across it.
what
Your number. It’s across the toilet. On the door. Not on it.
wow you are kind of infuriating
can you just tell me what it says so we can end this conversation
Fine.
It says:
”Are you a therapist? If so, call (your number). She needs one!”
Today 10:53 PM
Hello?
i’m here
I’m going to guess that you didn’t know anything about this.
incredible deduction skills
Are you okay?
just peachy
so what? you’re a therapist? that’s why you texted?
What? No. I’m not a therapist.
then why
Well, to be honest, at first I thought it was a cry for help written in a moment of crisis. I would have felt horrible just ignoring it. Then, I thought if someone else had written it (seriously or as a cruel joke) you deserved to know.
So, which one is it?
if i had to guess? petty ex
Wow. Really?
one of the last things she said to me was “call a therapist” so lol
That’s funny to you?
huh?
wait
how old are you
Excuse me? That’s not very polite.
omfg
are you a creepy old man
say yes if you are
No! I’m not a creepy old man. What is wrong with you?
nothing is wrong with me i just don’t particularly like talking to creepy old men
or men in general
sue me
Well, lucky you. I’m not a man.
Some would say i’m old, though.
how old are you?
You really would benefit from some manners.
🙄
I’m 40.
dude that’s not old that’s like prime milf age
Milf?
don’t worry about it
i’m 27
I figured you were young.
what’s that supposed to mean
is it because i’m coooool
Sure.
whatever
well i’m going to bed
Oh. Okay!
yeah
um thanks for texting me or whatever
No problem! Like I said, I would have felt horrible if I didn’t.
Oh and don’t worry! I managed to scrub off the message with some soap and water. You shouldn’t be getting anymore random messages.
that’s…i appreciate that
thank you
night stranger
Goodnight.
