Sleeping with Other People Page #4
afraid to commit' and it's like
'no, I just don't want
to commit to you.'
But I can't say that, because
that's like mean on top of mean.
So it's no, no, no.
It's not you, it's me.
I don't like you.
You know, like that.
- Yeah, that's harsh.
That's harsh, right.
You can't say that.
So instead I'd rather
just say something like:
'I f***ed your sister.'
- Much better.
Well, it's honest.
You have to f*** the sister
in order for it to work.
It's like I'd rather -
Be the bad guy than
tell the truth.
See. You get it.
Yeah. But I'm psychotic.
But like an
approachable psychotic.
That's the thing I don't
think I mentioned earlier.
- You like it?
- Yeah, it's Like Ted Bundy.
You can't get into a van
by just being a jerk.
You've got to have a
certain way about you.
...appetites?
- That would be -
That would be something.
- Yes, yes, yes.
- I'm hungry again.
Already?
You know, that's
Dim Sum for you.
I have snacks at home.
I have...
This is actually -
this is my train.
What here? Oh yeah?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Alright.
- So I'm probably
going to hit the road.
- Yeah.
- Jake, thank you.
We did it.
This was a good date.
We did the date.
think it might have been the
first date I've ever been on
so I don't really have much to
compare it to, but
it seemed solid.
Good. Okay.
Sh*t...
What?
I- I want to f*** you.
- What? That's so...
- I know...
- No!
- What do you mean no?
What did I do?
Stop wanting to!
It's kinda hard.
I mean, look at you.
I mean, you're so pretty and
you're vulnerable and it's just
like you might as well be
wearing a sign that says:
Solve my problems
with your penis!
Jake, we just spent the entire
screw up every sexual
relationship we've ever have.
I know, right.
And yet here I am, wanting...
So maybe we gotta
just be friends.
Yes. That is the mature,
responsible thing
to do for each other and
ourselves, yes I agree.
Okay, but we've got to
come up with a system,
if we're gonna be friends, and
I want to be good friends...
It's fair. So maybe we come up
with a safe word for if we're
then we'll stop whatever...
If you're doing something sexy
- Feeling attracted.
- It's mutual?
So it is mutual?
You're saying it's mutual?
- It could be mutual.
- That's a yes.
I may or may not have to use
the word. We'll have to see.
Okay, alright.
Well say it for me.
- Yeah. Anything. I'll do
anything. You pick it, and yes.
- It's Avocado.
- No. Can't do that.
No. It's an immediate veto?
I mean, it's too sexual.
It's too sexual.
- Avocado is too sexual?
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, you've got to
see the way I eat an avocado
and you'll be like that's
you know, do that to me.
Guam.
- Guam, like the country Guam?
No! No.
I knew a girl whose father was
from Guam and she literally had
one of the best natural bodies
I've ever seen in my life.
Noodle salad.
Noodle salad?
That's a sex thing.
What?
That's a bunch of guys
putting flaccid d*cks into
someone's mouth.
That is called a noddle salad.
That is not a thing.
I mean it absolutely is a thing.
I know it's a thing.
Go to noodlesalad.org
Now I feel like you're
just trying to find problems.
I would make the argument that
you are just suggesting only
things that can only be
perceived as sexual.
- Okay, so it needs
to be more violent.
- Yeah.
- Dick in a Mousetrap!
- Yikes! What is that?
- Oh!
- That's awful!
You don't like it?
- No!
- That's the one.
- What?
- We'll shorten it to Mousetrap.
- Thank you. Goodbye.
- Mousetrap? Alright. Goodbye.
- I'm going. I'm going for it.
- Yeah. Live on the edge.
- Goodnight.
Careful. Bye.
Bye.
- Bye.
Your face
will surely show it,
If you're happy and you
know it clap your hands!
Yay!
Good singing. Good. Alright,
free play. Everybody play.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Lyle, no, no, no, no.
Alexander had the ball first.
Why did you take it from him?
Hey, no. You've got to use
your words. We don't do that.
- One of my students
reminds me of you.
He's devastatingly handsome?
He reminds me of us.
He has no one to play
with and gets angry.
So nobody wants to play with him
cuz he's angry all the time.
No dates, huh?
- Haven't met anyone.
I've been busy.
Studying for the MCATs,
you know. You?
Nothing. Nada.
Have you texted Voldemort?
Trying to distract myself.
Sometimes I dress up in lingerie
just to feel something.
Oof, mousetrap.
You should text me what
you want to text him.
I miss your cock in my mouth.
I miss the way you
feel on top of me.
I miss making you cum.
- Whoa, since when are you a
porn star with killer grammar?
That's how I text with him.
- Okay, well you're
sending porn star
vibes instead of Lainey vibes.
- You're one to talk.
You're a completely different
guy with me than
with other ladies.
That's not true.
- If you want someone to fall
for you, you gotta be you.
- Yeah, I don't think I
like me enough to introduce
him to other people.
Night.
That was fun.
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
He looked so normal.
Like he hadn't even noticed
No, no. He noticed.
He's just not thinking
about it the same way.
Right. Right, great.
I'm a guilty slut and he gets
to be a heartless alpha
male who f***ing jogs!
No! That's not it at all.
To Sobvechik,
you're like the hardest
drug at the coolest party.
In a second he has
to make a decision;
do I go home now or cancel
everything tomorrow.
You know, no pre-meditation
means no post-meditation.
It's not like months from
now he's thinking, oh gosh,
Or I hope cocaine
isn't mad at me!
You know. No dude thinks like
Are you saying I'm
crack cocaine?
Yeah. Don't sell
yourself short.
We wouldn't have The
West Wing without you.
What is wrong with me?
- Nothing's wrong with you. Are
you kidding me? You're great.
I mean you're funny,
you're sexy, you're cool,
like...
Oh... -
What? You run
out of compliments?
Yeah. No. Do you
remember that girl, Renee?
- Had a spectacular time
with you last night.
I'm at lunch.
Have you ever thought
about taking a road trip?
you're alive and okay.
GIF of a panda dancing!
Seriously - are you okay?
I was on the subway,
did you text me?
F*** me then ignore me...
Nice one, Jake!
Photo of a dog
dressed as a Nazi!
I have chlamydia...
Okay, I was joking!!!
I do have HPV though...
and I hope it's the one
that gives you dick cancer.
Emoji of a heart. xxx Renee.
Well, that's sort of normal.
today, your perception of
normal might be a
little skewed, my dear.
Okay, you slept with her.
Rocked her face.
Yes. With my body.
You didn't call her.
I lost my phone in a cab.
And you unleashed her Khaleesi.
