He told the pharmacist all about his plan to lose his virginity with his gf and asked him many questions.The pharmacist was happy to answer all of the young boys questions as hes reminiscing about his youth and the night he lost his virginity. The pharmacist ends up talking to the boy for quite a while as he educated the boy about everything he needed to know. Their conversation even got a little unprofessional at times. It's just the two enjoyed their little talk so much neither of them could help it. Figuring the couple were probably going to start having a lot of sex they opted to get the value 50 pack.
