Reading Time: 3 minutes My first sign should’ve been the text messages. Larry (name changed) was incessant with texting me. We’d met at a bonfire of hundreds; in retrospect, how he picked me out of the darkened crowd is suspicious, and why I caved in and gave him my number is rueful. The guy had some audacity — you […]
