Patrick: We met first semester sophomore year and like we hooked up a couple times like we really never talked about a relationship until she brought it up the one time. And I’m like:

“Welll. . . yeah we could . . . like I’m not saying like I don’t want to start dating and seeing you exclusively but it would be nice to like . . . maybe just see what it’s like.” And then when I would see her at parties [and] I would be talking to other girls and she would be all upset. I’m like: “Well, you know if that’s going to get you upset, something small, just me talking to other girls, I mean I don’t think we would be able to work this out.” [But hooking up with her has] gone on. Like I still talk to her now and we stilll. . . hook up. But, I think she realizes that if we started seeing each other exclusively that I would still be talking to other girls and like being sociable to them. I wouldn’t hook up with them but I just think that she . . .

KB: She gets jealous?

Patrick: I guess, yeah.

KB: But it’s been two years now that you guys have been hooking up off and on?

Patrick: Yeah.

KB: But you have freedom to hook up with someone else if you want to?

Patrick: Yeah.

KB: And she does?

Patrick: Yeah.

KB: And do you both take advantage of that freedom?

Patrick: Yes.

KB: Typically if people hook up with people repeatedly, would they talk on the phone in between or do they usually just run into them when they’re out?

Patrick: I would say [they] run into them when they’re out. That’s when they’re just hooking up. When it becomes more serious I would say they talk to each other on the phone.

KB: Okay, so what about you [and the girl you have been hooking up with for the past two years]? What do you do mostly?

Patrick: I haven’t talked to her on the phone at all. I talk to her like on IM [instant message] every once and a while. But like I don’t like call her up and say: “Hey what’s going on?” I don’t.
