Never Have I Ever
Or the ATF Girls play 10 fingers!
We’re closing out our week-long conversation on our “dark sides” today by playing 10 Fingers, aka Never Have I Ever. We each prepared about five Never Have I Ever statements (slash looked up a bunch on the fly…thanks Cosmo!) and will alternate saying our chosen statements. When someone’s statement mentions an action that one of us HAS done, that player puts a finger down. There are two simple rules: 1) You have to actually never have done the thing you say, and 2) You can’t say a statement that you know for a FACT someone else will have to put a finger down for.
This might get interesting. Let’s play!
Kayla Vogelsang: Never have I ever… said I love you without meaning it.
Fingers Down: Aimée, Shelby, Sydney
SL: …Do I put down multiple fingers for doing that multiple times?
Aimée Heath: Never have I ever… eaten steak.
Fingers Down: Kayla, Shelby, Sydney
KV: My husband works for a meat company so there would definitely be some issues if I had never eaten steak…. PETA would picket outside our house if they saw what was in the two-deep freezers in our garage.
Sydney Weinshel: Never have I ever… gone out with a friend’s ex.
Fingers Down: Aimée
AH: I guess MY ex dated several people I considered friends before we dated. We were messy in high school band!
Shelby Lueders: Never have I ever… stolen something from my dad.
Fingers Down: Kayla
KV: I’ve definitely taken money out of my dad’s wallet.
SL: See, I’ve done that to my mom…but not my dad.
AH: I’ve for sure stolen from my siblings, but not my parents!
KV: Never have I ever… gone skinnydipping.
Fingers Down: Shelby, Sydney
AH: Never have I ever… cheated on a significant other.
Fingers Down: Shelby, Sydney
SL: Sydney, we’re horrible people.
SW: Never have I ever… walked in on my parents having sex.
Fingers Down: None (Thank God!)
SL: Does it count if someone’s walked in on me having sex? [Met with silence].
SL: Never have I ever… hooked up with a sibling’s friend…or a friend’s sibling.
Fingers Down: Sydney
SW: A friend’s sibling!
KV: Never have I ever… gone on a blind date.
Fingers Down: None
KV: My parents met on a blind date! But, that was the 80s…
AH: Never have I ever… lost my wallet or ID.
Fingers Down: Kayla, Shelby, Sydney
SW: That story ends with my dad driving up from Maryland at 3 in the morning to make sure I got home safe.
SW: Never have I ever… sent a sext to the wrong person.
Fingers Down: None
SL: In retrospect, I’ve definitely sexted with the wrong person, but in the moment it wasn’t an accident.
SL: Never have I ever… had a one night stand.
Fingers Down: Aimée, Kayla, Sydney
AH: Kayla was there!
KV: That’s a story for another day!

SL: *playful gasp* Aimée!
AH: What, I’m out of town! It’s hard out here.
AH: Never have I ever… kissed a girl.
Fingers Down: Kayla, Sydney

SW: Never have I ever… had a near death experience.
Fingers Down: None
SL: Never have I ever… been questioned by the police in a negative capacity.
Fingers Down: Kayla

KV: Never have I ever… gotten OR given a lap dance.
Fingers Down: Shelby
SL: Either way, I’m putting a finger down here.
SL: Never have I ever… had a surprise party thrown for me.
Fingers Down: None
SW: Aww, I did! It was my 9th birthday and the party was Lizzie McGuire themed.
SL: Of course you have. That’s because everyone loves you, Sydney.
SL: Never have I ever… had anyone slap me.
Fingers Down: Aimée, Kayla
KV: AIMÉE slapped me!! We can maybe elaborate on this another time, but basically, it happened on a coach bus during a band trip to Disney World. Aimée’s mom was one of the chaperones, and she reminded all of us to tuck our shirts in. I was having a bit of a “chubby problem” at the time, and I wasn’t physically able to tuck in my polo while sitting down. But Aimée thought I was just being disrespectful to her mom…so after I refused to tuck in my shirt right then, she straight up bitch slapped me! If that doesn’t give you confidence problems, I don’t know what will… lol just kidding. We laugh about this now.
AH: (laughing) I mean…I was 16. That’s all I have to say for myself.
SL: Never have I ever… looked through someone’s phone because of suspicions/without permission.
Fingers Down: Aimée, Kayla
KV: I mean, I was looking to see when he was going to propose…does that count?
SL: That absolutely counts!

Fingers Down: Kayla
KV: It was some Melissa McCarthy movie…I think Tammy? I don’t know, but it was SO bad.
AH: Never have I ever… used a fake ID.
Fingers Down: None (but Sydney puts down another toe!)
AH: Never have I ever… broken up with someone.
Fingers Down: Kayla, Shelby
KV: I mean, I made a friend do it…
Kayla is OUT! To make things fair, Sydney & Kayla are going to ask the rest of the questions.
KV: Never have I ever… gotten nude at a nude beach.
Fingers Down: Shelby
SL: I was in Ibiza, Spain with Zack drinking cheap wine. It was a whole thing. Zack had to lay on his stomach because… *gestures vaguely* Ahh, so young and innocent we were.
SW: Never have I ever… slept with someone whose name I didn’t know.
Fingers Down: Aimée
KV: Aimée…
AH: I mean, I knew it then! Wasn’t it like…Fernando?
KV: No!!
AH: IT WAS FELIPE! Definitely Felipe.
KV: Still unclear if that is correct.
SW: Never have I ever… hooked up with a coworker.
Fingers Down: None
SW: I’ve hooked up with MULTIPLE coworkers.
KV: Never have I ever… purposefully ghosted someone’s texts. *Also, clearly this is false if you read my piece on Thursday.*
Fingers Down: Aimée, Shelby
Shelby is OUT! Aimée wins, with one finger left!
SL: Somehow, I knew it would end this way — with Aimée winning.
AH: 💁♀️💁♀️
