"Ground rules?" "First, we only talk about romance, not emotions. Don't fall in love with each other." "Second, respect each other's privacy and personal space. The second floor is yours, and the third floor is mine." "Third, during our ttogether, neither of us can have another partner have no intention of 1 sharing a man. If you find a better option, letknow in advance, and I'll leave." He nodded in agreement. "I'm not in the habit of sharing my partners either. Deal."

"I have only one request: I decide when this ends."
