I Have A Big Bone To Pick With Anderson

Anderson's situation is getting quite uncomfortable for me. It bothers me to see Benjamin walking at a distance behind Anderson. It's disturbing and demeaning. I can imagine their conversation before they leave the house:

Anderson: Do you want to come with me to the tapping of The Jimmy Fallon Show?

Benjamin: Yes, I'd like to.

Anderson: Okay, but remember to walk at least five feet behind me. I don't want people to notice we are coming together.

Quite humiliating. If I were Benjamin I would have already kicked Anderson in the ass and said good bye. How can Benjamin tolerate this insult?

I love them both and I wish them all the happiness in the world; yet I can't figure out their relationship under these terms. It's not as if us, the public, don't know already what's going on, why does Anderson insist on keeping this charade at the expense of Benjamin's dignity? Benjamin, an out of the closet guy, must love Anderson a lot in order to put up with this calamity.

I bless them, I wish them happiness and I hope their relationship to be as easy as it can possible be. I wish they'd get married!
