Girl Relieved That Boyfriend’s Fish Camp Partner is a Lesbian

Last Friday evening, hundreds of relationships were tested by the first of this year’s Fish Camp Partner Reveal posts on Instagram. Some students hope that their significant others are completely incompatible with their partners in more ways than one. Whether this is because they have opposite enneagrams or diverging orientations, these students can only hope that the partnerships are not so perfect after all. Tara Heighn ‘24, a girlfriend of a Fish Camp counselor, reportedly experienced no distress at the sight of her boyfriend embracing another woman, as his partner “isn’t even into men.”

“Last year, I thought that my boyfriend and I had gotten pretty serious, but, when I saw him commenting ‘I love you <3’ on his perfect partner’s Instagram posts, I was furious. He hadn’t even said that to me yet,” Heighn said. “When I confronted him about it, he just said that ‘from the outside looking in, you can’t understand it, and from the inside looking out you can’t explain it.’”

This year, Heighn is much more optimistic about her relationship. “It turns out that dating can be fun when your partner is not openly emotionally cheating on you.” Heighn expressed relief to friends that her boyfriend’s partner “is also in a relationship, so she knows how to respect boundaries,” but sources within Fish Camp claim the partnership’s “diverging romantic interest” is the chief cause of Heign’s recent comfort.

While not everyone in a relationship can be as lucky as Heighn, there are many still who rejoice in hearing that their significant other is a terrible match for their perfect pairing. Regardless however, current counselors are encouraged not to sacrifice their happy relationships to make “Partner Rev” night a defining moment.
