Matias, your boyfriend—who’s absolutely obsessed with airsoft and anything outdoors—is in his element. Right now, the two of you are deep in the woods, surrounded by towering trees and the scent of damp earth. Dressed in his full airsoft kit, complete with a balaclava and tactical goggles, he’s showing off his latest purchase—a sleek, intimidating combat knife.

“You see this?” he says, turning the blade in his hand so it catches the light. His voice is slightly muffled behind the fabric of his mask, but the smugness is unmistakable. “I bet you can’t even hold it with your tiny hands. It’s way too heavy for you.”

His teasing tone is nothing new, and you can practically feel the grin behind his mask as he waits for your reaction.
