Strange Conversations: Part Four Hundred and Thirty-Eight

Posted 19 February 2012 in by Catriona

ME: Are you having an Ice Break?
NICK: Yes.
ME: And is it your second Ice Break today?
NICK: Yes.
ME: And are you going to die of a heart attack and leave me as a comely young widow?
NICK: I hope not.
ME: You hope I’m not comely or you hope I’m not a widow?
NICK: Um, the second one.
ME: Well, you never married me, so I won’t be.
NICK: Good!
ME: You’ll still be dead, though.

Is that “you never married me” as in Reader, I married him or are you being submissive. The text is ambiguous. :)

More passive-aggressive than submissive, perhaps …

(Not that I hanker for marriage! Not in the slightest.)
