Warning: Honesty Cuts Both Ways

(I’m on the phone with my boyfriend. We go to college together, but are apart for the summers. It is one week before we return for the fall semester.)

Me: “You really should get a haircut before we go back to school.”

Him: “I was going to wait until we get back, so that you can cut it.”

Me: “Awww, you like the way I cut your hair? How sweet!”

Him: “No, it’s just cheaper.”
