We have all been in that situation where you are sitting
next to someone you do or don’t know and you can’t but listen to their
conversation. Well, this very situation happened to me as I was on my way up to
the Bronx, on a very long train ride (due to “train traffic”).
So one girl’s name was Tiffany and the person she was talking to was named Evie. Evie and Tiffany’s conversation was usual/ unusual for a train ride. The point I tuned into the conversation was when Tiffany got a “hickey from someone at a party because of a dare.” It was all downhill from there. Both of them went into another conversation about how a few months ago Tiffany had sex with that same person. At this point I was not judging. Young, in college, cute guys, yolo. So that conversation about sleeping with guy #1 happened, Evie asked “was guy #1 (can’t remember the name) better then Joe?” Tiffany: “Eh, the same level.” I’m still thinking yolo. An awkward silence happened for about 10 seconds and Tiffany says “Joe had a bigger ‘man part’ then guy #1.” My mind Of course it was. Evie continues on saying, “it’s kinda funny how you’ve hooked up with that whole crew.” They were laughing and I was laughing too but it was so hard not to show it though; I think I got a cramp from holding it in. Why? Cause I wasn’t thinking yolo anymore, I was thinking “you a stupid hoe.” Whenever someone has said you have managed to hook up with a whole crew, then you have crossed the line of “just having some fun. I also thought “this girl is trying to get the h.i.v. Tiffany made a face like “I know but. . .”
At this part of their discussion I was zoning out because I was over being on this train and wanted to get off already.
When I zoned back in, Tiffany was saying how she really hoped things with Frankie worked out cause he’s really cute and extremely sweet. She also made a point on how she hopes he doesn’t find out about her hookup with Ian, because Frankie and Ian talk a lot and is friends with the crew.
Who knew it was so easy to manipulate people into thinking you’re not interested in what they have to say. It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3- have your headphones in, don’t make eye contact, and “check the time” every once in a while.

Natalie this is crazy! I can't believe you actually heard girls talking about stuff like this so openly in public! This is something I would do in the privacy of my house where no one can hear me! I've heard talk about stuff like this before but never so explicit. I actually think this is so cool that you over heard this a conversation like this. I am actually really jealous of you!
