Theo: I knew my parents wouldn't come to visit me without an ulterior motive
Theo: Apparently they want to see me settle down
8.29 pm
Rose: That isn't such a bad thing
8.37 pm
Theo: No, it isn't. But it is when they already set up a date for me
Theo: And they're talking as if I have absolutely no choice in the matter
8.43 pm
Rose: You do have a choice
8.45 pm
Theo: I know, but they're trying to guilt me into it
8.47 pm
Rose: You're an adult, there's absolutely no way that they'll be able to get you to go out with someone you don't want to
Rose: If you talk to them, you'll be understand where they're coming from
8.55 pm
Theo: What do you mean?
9.04 pm
Rose: Now, I'm not taking their side but maybe you should trying seeing where they're coming from
9.09 pm
Theo: Are you saying that I should just give in and go out with a random stranger that I am in now way interested in?
9.11 pm
Rose: No, definitely not. Unless you want to, of course
9.12 pm
Theo: I don't
9.15 pm
Rose: Then you don't have to
9.17 pm
Theo: Then what do you mean?
9.22 pm
Rose: I mean, that you need to sit down and talk to them
9.28 pm
Theo: And what will that achieve?
9.31 pm
Rose: There's no possible way that I would know the answer to that, but maybe they can give you an answer
Rose: You want my honesty?
9.33 pm
Theo: Always
9.34 pm
Rose: I just think they think that you're lonely, and they're just trying to push you in the right direction
9.36 pm
Theo: But I'm not lonely
9.41 pm
Rose: You might feel like that, but that's probably not what you're projecting to the people around you
9.44 pm
Theo: You don't think I'm lonely, do you?
9.47 pm
Rose: I can't tell
Rose: It's hard to read emotion through text
9.49 pm
Theo: I guess
9.50 pm
Rose: Just go talk with them and stop brooding
9.55 pm
Theo: I thought you can't read emotions through texts
9.57 pm
Rose: I can't, just took a wild guess
Rose: But I was right, was I not?
9.58 pm
Theo: You were
9.59 pm
Rose: I'm always right
10.00 pm
Theo: We'll see about that
