the fling line is something that's been forming over the past few months, started off as a tinder hook up, then it slowly turned into them texting all of the time, with occasional butterflies and obnoxiously large smiles in tow, and going on "dates" which in her eyes means going to grab a beer and a plate of nachos. she won't admit that she's grabbing feelings but it's leaning that way, it just kind of freaks her the f out.
the ex line is someone that she dated two years ago, she was just starting her business and she was thriving, which drove a little bit of a wedge between them once she got on her feet. they had gotten serious real fast, were talking the m word (marriage) and moving in together, which sort of gave her the heebie jeebies. they broke up when things became too complicated and the spark died down. however, they're truly not far from one another's minds, or beds when the time is right.
