Synopsis
Blair is an enigmatic grad school student, artist, writer and creator who is in a complicated "friendship" with a married man. She is an attractive and down-to-earth girl with a personality that people gravitate towards and looks to compliment. Hunter is a successful man with a cushy finance job who just got out of an 8-year relationship after walking in on his girlfriend cheating on him. Hunter is handsome, witty and charming, but his judgemental temperament can make him seem like an asshole at times. Conservative Hunter and wild-child Blair are the polar opposites of each other in too many ways to count, but end up striking up an odd friendship. But is that all there is between them—just friendship?

Complicated Friendships FIVE - BLAIR
Out of nowhere, Hunter asks if I live with my boyfriend.“It was just, I saw a guy leaving your apartment earlier, I just assumed...”“Oh! Him...” I’m not sure how to respond. I don’t know him well enough to divulge that kind of information just yet. Well, actually, I don’t quite know him at all.During dinner, it felt like I was the one doing all the talking. Hunter sat back and mostly listened, asking a few questions here and there. He didn’t share many personal details about himself, except that he was moving closer to work. He didn’t seem to mind it, but he definitely didn’t seem excited about spending time with me. Maybe he just wanted some time alone after a long day of moving and I intruded on that by inviting myself along to have dinner with him.Why do I always do this... always acting thoughtlessly before considering the other person’s feelings.“He’s just a fri

Blair opens the door to her apartment and turns on the lights in the living room. I can tell she’s not wearing any makeup, and despite her messy bed head bun, I still can’t deny that she look stunning.“Excuse the mess please, I’m in the middle of a project...” she warns as she retreats to the bedroom to change.I step inside, and boy is messy an understatement. Her apartment has the exact same layout as mine, except reversed. The front door opens up to an adjoining living and dining area. To the left of the living room is the hallway and there are what looks like one bedroom and a washroom, just like my place.Blair’s dining room is covered with newspapers, and in lieu of any dining furniture, there is a shelf against the wall overflowing with paint supplies and tools and beside it, a table which was also covered in art supplies and tools. There are two antique chairs in the middle of the newspapers and art suppli

I wake up to the sound of knocking on the door. It’s dark outside and none of the lights are on in my apartment.“Hello? Anyone home?” A deep, husky voice calls out.I groan as I get up from the couch. My hair must be a mess. I stumble to the door in the dark to find the handsome stranger who just moved in next door standing in front of me. I rub my eyes. His wide frame towers over my small 5’4 body by nearly a foot. He is holding a bundle of white sheets in his arms.“Hi,” My voice cracks, giving away my state of being fresh out of slumber. “Are these my sheets? Sorry!” I stretch out my arms, offering to take over.“Hi,” he says, as he hands over the sheets. “Yeah, I'm Hunter. I just moved in next door. I needed to use the washer so I took your sheets out and dried them. I hope you don’t mind.” Hunter’s tone is not unfriendly, but definitely not supe

Sarah is sitting on the couch, crying into her palms as I’m moving my boxes out of the midtown Toronto townhouse that we’ve shared for the past three years. She hasn’t stopped crying since last Wednesday, when I came home early from work and caught her in bed with another man. She hasn’t stopped begging me to forgive her and explaining herself to me, even though we both know that me finding her with another man isn’t the real reason I am leaving.It’s not that I can’t forgive her, but it’s more that I can’t forgive myself for letting our relationship get to this point. I feel ashamed that we’ve taken things this far. But I guess there’s a certain degree of permanence to purchasing a home together, having a mortgage together, a joint bank account, a joint credit card. There is nothing physically tying us down, but somehow it felt inescapable. Even though it feels like my heart was long gone. I haven’t
