Keep Your Sistance

(My fiancé and I are very good friends with another couple, and are very close with both of them. He has just spent the evening gaming online with the husband while I text the wife, joking about them. I am lying in bed talking to my fiancé afterward.)

Me: “So Sarah and I were joking about you and Tom having a bromance.”

Fiancé: “Yeah, yeah we do.”

Me: “We were also joking about what it would be like if we lived together.”

Fiancé: “Oh, God! To survive, you and Sarah would have to have a… lesbian relationship.”

Me: “What?!”

Fiancé: “I was going to say ‘sistance’, but that just sounds like some terrible STD. So I said lesbian relationship instead.”

Me: “I don’t think Sarah and I are going to have a lesbian relationship, honey.”

Fiancé: “Yeah, I didn’t think so either, but it sounded better than ‘sistance’!”
