Fear Tyler

I'm very vulnerable at night time. Not "oh, I'm so lonely. Someone come cuddle me now!" No, I save that vulnerability for Thursday nights with a bottle of wine (let's be honest: a six pack) to myself. My night time vulnerability involves using half my brain power, and from the looks of my past night time decisions, it's not the logical side that's on and functioning.

I was caught off guard. I was texting Tyler for a couple days. His profile seemed vague with either blurry or far away images. I gave him my number only hoping to get a better sense of what he looked like (creepily add him on Snapchat and gauge his appearance). I should have seen the signs:

  • "Hello?" texts after not responding within five minutes
  • He only sent pictures he said were "outdated"
  • He didn't have a Snapchat
