Why I Am Not Your ‘Netflix and Chill’ Girl

If you’re a girl, under the age of 25, and haven’t received the notorious “Netflix and chill??” text, you’re one of the few and the lucky. The question remains for those of us not so lucky; how the hell do you respond to this? What does he mean by ‘chill?’ What if I strictly just want to chill? How many other girls does he ‘Netflix and Chill’ with? Are we exclusively ‘Netflix and chilling?’ For those of you that understand the struggle, here’s why you shouldn’t be the “Netflix and chill’ type either.

Dear ‘Netflix and chill’ boy,

Listen, I love a good movie date as much as the next girl. A night cuddled in front of the TV watching a scary movie with a guy I really like after a long week of classes sounds amazing, but when I got this text from you, I knew that if I dropped everything and drove to wherever you were, I would be making it entirely too easy for you.

Don’t get me wrong; I’m not trying to be complicated. I’m not only in it for the chase and I’m not playing hard-to-get. This isn’t a game to me. In fact, I’m trying to be as straight forward as I can.next
