Dating Sheldon Cooper, Part 8
(My boyfriend and I met in college and have been together for six months. However, we’re currently on summer break and about a thousand miles away from each other. He’s studying physics and I’m studying theatre.)
Me: “We should get those long-distance pillow things.”
Boyfriend: “I don’t know, those are a little weird. I’d feel weird having a robot hug me or just listening to a pillow’s heartbeat.”
Me: “Yeah, I guess I can understand that.”
Boyfriend: “It’s all right. I’m an oscillating dipole and I’m bombarding you with love rays!”
Me: “Thanks, I think? You do know I’m an arts student who only took basic levels of high school physics, right?”
Boyfriend: “So? They’re non-ionizing love rays!”
