Shifting balance and another chance

"I've been hanging out with a group of male friends (H's friends, too) for some time now... he gets nervous but there's this code thing with them that none of them would dare come too close, anyway."

Are you sure about that?

More importantly, is HE sure of this? If he IS, then why the hell is he nervous?

You're doing GREAT, girlfriend! Keep up the strength and confidence, and have yourself a blast!!!

P.S. Kent, just because you've got a bad leg doesn't mean I'm gonna let you get away with taking all the slow dances!!
