I told my partner I wanted to try role playing with a doctor's office fantasy, and then left the details to him. He made me schedule an appointment on an online portal, gave me a pile of paperwork to fill out when I arrived, invited some Craigslist actors to sit in the lobby during my appointment, and went so far as to put HGTV on all our TVs. Gotta love that attention to detail 😍

However he is not really interested in world affairs, does not follow the news closely, does not have a strong grasp
