A relationship mystery solved

One night recently, a group of us were at a bar downtown, just drinking and talking. IrishTenor began a highly energetic and humorous debate with his friend TheLinguist, one of the only women I know who can hold her own against him.

I watched and laughed for a bit but eventually entered the argument on the side of TheLinguist. IrishTenor looked surprised and slightly offended. I was fairly intoxicated, leading me to believe that I needed to reassure him.

Me: "But I love you!"

IrishTenor: "It's not about love, it's about taking my side...THIS IS WHY WE DON'T CUDDLE!!"

This is where I have gone wrong in every relationship. Ever.

And I don't cuddle. Do I always have to take their side?

And now the text message makes more sense.

Mona: No, you don't have to always take their side. That's not by any means a requirement.

For the record, however, I'm usually nauseatingly loyal.
