Tyler: I don’t want to visit you at work. Jeez, calm down. I was just wondering if our floors were laid out in the same way. I could be on top of you right now.
Melanie: What?
Tyler: That came out wrong.
Tyler: Sorry.
Tyler: So, do you want to be my girlfriend?
Melanie: We’ve only had 2 dates.
Tyler: We’ve had 3 dates, we’re just choosing to discount one of them.
Melanie: Are you seriously asking me to be your girlfriend? Like we’re in high school or something? Do people our age even do that anymore.
Tyler: Sorry, do you want to go steady?
Melanie: …
Tyler: What does that mean?
Tyler: What does … mean?
Tyler: Melanie?
Tyler: Spice…
Melanie: Sorry, Brianna had to speak to me.
Tyler: Did I get you fired?
Melanie: No.
Tyler: Good. Now, look. I don’t know what people our age say to indicate that they want to date someone exclusively. But I want to. Date you, and only you. So what do you say?
Tyler: Wanna feel my shirt? It’s made of boyfriend material. ;)
Melanie: OMG you’re a dork.
Tyler: I can’t believe you just used OMG. I retract my question.
Tyler: Just kidding, I don’t.
Tyler: Date me, please?
Melanie: Yes.
Tyler: Yeah?
Melanie: Yes, I will be your girlfriend.
Melanie: But, for the record, I cannot believe you asked me to be your girlfriend via text.
Tyler: Oh, come on. Give me a break. It’s not like I proposed via text.
Melanie: If you propose to me via text, I’m saying no.
Melanie: Not that you’re going to propose to me.
