Leila has a friend over today, no one you know, and she was very open with me about her love life.
She's 10.
Leila tried to stop her from saying something, but she said, "Who cares? Its over!" I was cool as a cucumber, hoping for lots of details. It went a little something like this: (names have been changed to protect the little animals.)
Girl: Yeah, me and Boy A were dating.
Leila: You weren't dating!
Girl: Yes! We went to Lucky's after school sometimes.
Me: Did Boy A know you were dating? Did you talk about it?
Girl: Oh yeah. He would text me and ask "Do you love me" and would be all "yes." But its over now.
Me: Does he know its over?
Girl. Sure.
Me: How did it end?
Girl: Well, Girl B starting spreading rumors about us, and I didn't want to be, like, rumor girl, so I ended it.
Me: Were the rumors that you were dating? Weren't they true?
Girl: Yeah, but she was saying that we were kissing and stuff, and that wasn't true.
Me: So no kissing.
Girl: Well, not really.
Me: So, kissing?
Girl: Well, once I pressed my teeth to his knee.
Me: You kissed his knee?
Girl: No, he just kicked me in the hot tub.
Me: Ah.
