Finding North by Carmen Jenner

5.0

Safety Stats
Will
Sexuality as conflict - no
Virgin - no
Spoiler His first time was with North when they were in high school. North had already lost his virginity and had been with a lot of girls. Will was in love with him, which North knew and taunted him about. After he and North stopped being friends, Will moved on with other men.

What's Your Number - no

North
Sexuality as conflict - yes
Spoiler Though he and Will had sex when they were in high school, something that North instigated, he always denied that he was bisexual. There is external conflict from homophobic people in the town and from North's father, who at one point physically harms North and Will when he finds out about them.

Playboy - yes
Spoiler North had sex with most young women in the town that they lived in. One of his previous partners was a woman who works at Will's bar, which Will is fully aware of.

Sex scene with OW - yes
Spoiler There is an explicit scene where North has sex with his girlfriend, after he and Will have spoken for the first time in years. Another time, after North taunted Will about their first time together, he tries to have sex with his girlfriend again, but they break up.

Cheating - yes
Spoiler I consider it a mutual cheating situation, since in the same period that North was having sex with other women, Will was also continuing to have sex with other men. I love this, since Will has spent years being used to North's other partners. But when North finds out Will has been with many other men, he is completely shocked and completely vulnerable to his jealousy.

OW drama - yes
Spoiler North's ex-girlfriend is hostile towards Will. At one point she shows up at Will's apartment, upset that North is with another man. Will believes North is still with her and has been cheating on her with him, so he kicks North out of his house.


Overall, Not Safe but I like anyway.
