This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

The usual awkwardness of a Zoom call is made even worse when it's a man talking to his ex-boyfriend.

This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

Evan brings up the last time they talked to see if Keith remembers.

This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

Do you remember the last time that was?

This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

This happens a bunch of times.

Whatever Evan brings up, Keith only kind of remembers or doesn't remember at all.

Like when Evan brings up the time Keith spelled out his secret message in matchsticks, one of his favorite memories of their time together.

That's a good one.

What's worse than having someone be angry at you, never want to see you again?

I'll tell you what's worse.

Then they get down to business, start talking about the night of their breakup.

And Keith explains he'd hoped that at the end of the night, with them finally in the same city, they could really do the thing, be together.

This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

But Evan showed no excitement.

This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

In fact, Evan told him, whoa, slow down, one step at a time.

This American Life
881: I Want What I Want

That night, Evan actually thought he was saying yes to Keith, but just asking to ease into things.
