the hitchhiking game

I thought this story was really cool. It was creepy but sexy and we really had not seen anything like that this entire semester. I think the creepiest part of the whole concept is that it is very realistic. Couples look to spice up their love lives all the time and pretending to be strangers is one of the most common ways to portray it. The problem occurs when the characters start to really get into character and kind of forget who they really are. Especially the female character. What the male character likes most about the female character is the fact that she is a shy girl and she is unlike any girl he has ever been with because she is the opposite of any of the other “slutty” women he has been with in his time as a womanizer. When the girl decides to role play she actually starts to get really into character and this bothers him because he thought they were just playing but he realizes that if they were just playing no one who has a certain type of morals could bring themselves to do the things she is doing, even if its just “pretend”. She does this because she wants him to be hers so bad that she acts like the type of girl who has had his attention before. This actually works against her. The mind game in this story is really intriguing and kept me on my toes. I really enjoyed this story.
