The song is about the dating process. I’ve always really hated that when you are dating someone, you are also kind of dating their friends. Like I didn’t sign up for that. I really like you but I really don’t have to like all your friends. The person that I wrote it about, I got her permission before getting the song out. We are friends now, but there was a moment when we were not doing good.

— Dan Reynolds
