Uncomfortable Love

I was really uncomfortable with the whole thing. Oh, sure, the movie was good. It was great actually. I was surprised, considering Spinner had picked it out. I could even handle hanging out with Paige and some of her gang, considering how much we disliked each other. But Marco putting his arm around me every time Spinner looked over at us? That was making me uncomfortable. Ever since Marco stopped being confused, and told me he was gay, "dating" him didn't hold its old appeal to me. When he was confused, at least I could pretend in my mind that he was straight. But now, now that he knew for sure that he's gay, pretending has gotten a lot harder. And now, on this group date Marco had roped me into, I was feeling really stupid about the whole thing. Sure, Marco was a great guy, but he wasn't my great guy, and how long could I keep pretending for him?
