TIFU by prioritizing Morbius over love

Truly wish I was memeing. Alas.

So Morbius came back out and all of my friends on Discord were ecstatic. Naturally, we celebrated by pirating it. Some of us were drinking (one idiot friend drank at every “Michael”) but we were laughing and having a grand old time. I was also playing Minecraft because I need to multitask.

At the same time, I was in *another* Discord call, a video DM with my boyfriend. He’s in another time zone and sleeps before I do, and to stay connected we just stay on the line and sleep together. I stay muted unless he wakes up in the night. He did during the movie, rolled over and mumbled out a hello.

Now this is where I made the mistake. I unmuted, staring in panic at the enemies around my character, listening to the horrible trainwreck of the movie, and hurriedly said, “Babe, I’m watching Morbius.”

He stared, rolled over, and went back to sleep.

This man *woke up angry at me the next day.* He was heartbroken. He pointed out in the morning I didn’t even tell him I loved him.

He also still hasn’t watched the movie but I doubt we’ll have a couple’s movie night of this after this small debacle.

TL;DR: Movie multitasking made me Morb and Minecraft, missing man.
