There were never arguments or awkward moments while I was present. The girls were always polite. The men seemed perfectly relaxed when they left.
By the next morning, they wanted nothing to do with me.
I asked each man what had happened, but none gave me an answer. One ignored my messages. Another removed me from social media. They almost seemed afraid to explain.
Finally, I asked my coworker Daniel for a strange favor.
I wanted him to pretend to be my new boyfriend and come to dinner.
