Sometimes I even surprise myself with the things that I will do for love.
I’m not sure what comes over me, but when I have feelings for somebody I will bend over backwards to make them happy.
I’ll do just about anything to see them, to make sure that they are doing okay, and to benefit the romantic partnership in any way possible. I will really go out of my way, and put myself in the line of extreme discomfort if it means making my boyfriend happy. That’s why, I find myself currently sitting in a desperately hot and humid apartment, sweating through my shirt and sincerely hoping that my boyfriend will be home soon. You see, he got called into work today without warning. He didn’t want to leave his dog at home alone, so I offered to come over and dog sit for the day. The problem is, I have no idea how his thermostat works. He has an old-school plastic thermostat stuck in the hallway wall, and I can’t make the temperature control device obey what I say for the life of me. For the past two hours, I’ve been desperately pushing all the buttons and trying to make the indoor air temperature decrease drastically. It has to be at least 80 degrees inside the apartment, and it’s unfortunately uncomfortable. I don’t want to bother my boyfriend at work or to worry him in case the air conditioning unit is broken, but I’m worried that I messed up the thermostat programming with all of my fiddling. The last thing I want to do is cause more problems for him or his air conditioning system. I guess my best bet is to call out an air conditioning specialist and secretly pay the bill without telling him.
