Perhaps just having the courage to ask the right questions ahead of time would have helped avoid a lot of personal grief. Here's a prototype of such a conversation presented in an almost-Flash length. Any sex is off-screen. Inspired by a subplot on the 4/8/2008 episode of Boston Legal.
They met through IM at work. They had weeks of sultry IM conversations. What will happen when they finally unintentionally run into each other in dirty Las Vegas. Will it be hot as their conversations?
