14 of the 16 cards are still unredeemed. I wrote them, I underwrote them, and since August 18 there is no arrangement left for them to attach to. They carry no expiry date.
Ledger
Line items, recorded as incurred.
Statements in which she accurately described what she was going to do: 14. The first arrived on the second date and the second on the third. After the evening of May 30, which produced 4 more, I held 6 further dates and spent $1,758.00.
Silences longer than 24 hours: 3. They ran 5 days in April and May, 4 days in early June, and 4 days again later the same month. I ended all 3.
Her contribution across 11 dates: $0.00. The column exists because I built the form, and I have entered the same figure into it 16 times.
Phone checks across 1,800 minutes in person: 3, all of them hers. Two were a shift she had missed and a child calling her. The third was on my couch while I cooked, and I am the one who wrote it down.
11 dates held, 11 of them proposed by me, and 0 of them agreed while both of us were in the room. Every one was settled by text, after the evening it would have been easiest to ask.
Arrival times, on the dates where they were recorded: me 15 minutes early, her 10 to 15 minutes late. On July 31 that put 30 minutes between us at a table booked for one time.
I bought a year of a couples app on August 3 so that we would have something to answer together, and she joined when I invited her. We used it daily for 7 days. The subscription runs to August 3, 2027.
She asked me to a concert in Washington state after her friends had already declined it. I looked up flights and a hotel for a last-minute weekend and said no on July 27. In 98 days it is the only thing I priced before agreeing to it, and the only one that closed at $0.00.
On July 25 she drove 90 minutes and I drove 0. It is the only date in the file where my travel column reads zero, and it reads zero because she came to my house.
16 days in another state, with the daily texting unbroken the whole way through. The first claim against the cards came on day 11 and settled at $846.10, for an overnight that took place 1 state away from me.
The birthday box took 420 minutes to build across July 2 and 3. At the time I handed it over I had spent 1,350 minutes in her company, so the manufacture ran to 31 percent of the relationship.
I offered to collect her on April 25 and again on June 28. Both times she preferred to meet at the venue, and both evenings ended with 2 cars in the same lot.
She capped the June 9 date at 2 hours before it started, because she was not getting a sitter. It is the first figure in this file that she set.
Two stated policies in this file end with the speaker correcting themselves inside the same sentence. Mine was 2 words after 17, on May 5. Hers was 5 words after a list, on May 31.
On May 8 she offered 2 dates and I asked for both. She agreed to 1. On May 27 she sent me a screenshot of my own message and held me to the other, which is the first thing in 37 days that she started.
The drive-in on May 20 put me in a car for 270 minutes: 90 of transit and 180 of film. It is the first entry where the car was both the price and the place.
I loaded $102.19 onto a gaming card and we spent $32.19 of it. I handed her the card with the remaining $70.00 on it and told her to take her children. The kart race the venue was chosen for was full.
I arrived at the first date with 4 questions and asked them in order. On the second date she asked me the fourth one back, and I could not answer it until she rephrased it for me and I agreed with her version.
One dozen roses, $15.00, bought the afternoon before the first date and left in my car until the end of the evening. They sat in a parking lot for 180 minutes, 45 minutes from my apartment, while I was inside asking 4 prepared questions in order. Flowers appear twice in this arc, and the second set was handed over at the start of the evening instead.
