It wasn't that he was inexperienced per se, he'd had his share of girlfriends and he was certainly no blushing virgin, that tenuous beginning to a relationship, especially if you weren't sure the other person felt the same was always confusing and weird. At least she didn't have a daddy with a shotgun. That was nice.
