When Secrets Don’t Spark Joy

My friend’s sister was mid-20’s and getting serious with a guy. He told her there was something important he needed to share.

She’s thinking he wants to move in or pop the question. She goes over to his place, and he shows her his secret room.

It was a walk-in closet, and he had it set up with a huge replica of smurf village and liked to play there in his free time more than hanging out with friends. Acting out story lines with his smurfs and pretending he was one too. It was a big part of his life and he hoped she was as into it as he was. She was not.
