Yeah, But Would You Kill for Me?

And other important relationship breaking questions…

Right after they made primal, dirty love, they rolled over and curiously looked at each other, and she said, “I’d kill for you.”

He didn’t skip a beat. His eyes never flinched, his gaze unwavering when he said, “I’d kill for you too.” And then they went into a steamy round two of, well, you know what.

Apparently, the topic of killing for your soulmate is, uhm, stimulating.

Now I don’t want to give away the TV show we were watching or any other context, mostly so I avoid any “spoiler alert” clauses. But the fact is, it was a curiously odd yet intriguing question to ponder. In fact, my wife and I began to ponder it right then and there.

So I paused the show, looked at my wife, and asked her the same thing.

“Babycakes, would you kill for me?”

She didn’t answer me so much as she asked me the same thing and wanted me to answer her first. Of course, I said yes. Not for sport or fun, to be clear. Instead, as a protective measure in case she was ever threatened.

I mean, chivalry is far from dead…right?

But for some reason, a chivalrous bludgeoning of a threat didn’t seem, shall I say, exciting.
