That's not it, in my head anyway.

I will not use another person to manipulate the situation. That is wrong.

I'm imagining the situation where I cannot say yes. This isn't about being the second option - this is about not being an option at all. I had to ask her now. Cause otherwise I'm crossing the event horizon.

And I told her that too - my friend - I will not use you as a tool to manipulate this situation. If that worries you, then you should consider that.

I AM SUCH A FUN DATE!

Cutter, thank you. I can imagine what you, and others, are thinking.

I'm not such a good example of DBing at this point. Maybe I should stop posting about this situation.
