Contents 1 Plot 2 Cast 3 Release 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Plot ( edit ) Naomi and Ely have been best friends and neighbours in the same apartment building for years . Ely is gay , often having casual hook - ups with other guys , while Naomi is straight and has recently begun dating `` Bruce 2 '' , although she has always been secretly in love with Ely . Naomi and Ely have a `` No Kiss List '' where every guy on the list is forbidden to them both . In the beginning of the film , they add Gabriel , their young and handsome doorman , to the list . Everything is going well until Ely starts disappearing when Naomi needs him . She has been struggling to help her mother recover from her father leaving after having an affair . Furthermore , Naomi has n't accepted that Ely is gay ; she has always fantasized about him falling in love with and marrying her one day . Frustrated about the hopelessness of the situation , she lashes out at Ely 's promiscuity . He replies that Naomi , who is still a virgin , is just taking her sexual frustration out on him . One night , Naomi brings Ely along on a date with Bruce 2 . After a fun night out , Naomi wants to go home but Ely pushes her to go home with Bruce to have sex , which she reluctantly agrees . They awkwardly make out in Bruce 's dorm room until a friend accidentally interrupts them . A few days later , Ely discovers Bruce 2 waiting for Naomi in the hallway and offers him a drink while he waits . In Ely 's bedroom , Bruce discovers his X-Men comics and the two start bonding . In a moment of passion , they kiss , but Ely immediately regrets it and apologises . The next day , Naomi and Ely go shopping for their Halloween costumes . Ely confesses the kiss but Naomi brushes it off . She then discovers a mixtape in her mail from an admirer . While the two get ready for a Halloween party , Bruce visits Ely , admitting he enjoyed their kiss and wants to pursue him further . Naomi arrives and Ely asks Bruce to hide in the closet while he hastens her out . He then goes back claiming he `` forgot '' something to tell Bruce to wait for him . Bruce agrees and gives him Orbit gum , to add to the alibi that he forgot something . Naomi remembers that Bruce 2 chews sugar free gum and Ely does n't . She then figures out that Bruce 2 is in Ely 's apartment and their kiss was n't just a kiss . This results in a feud between the two . She confides in her friend Robin , admitting she is more upset about Ely 's betrayal than Bruce 's . She then creates a list of things and places for Ely to avoid in order for them to stay away from each other . Ely breaks one of her requests , which results in another messy dispute . Naomi realizes that her dream to be with Ely will never come true . During their time apart , Naomi becomes closer with Robin and discovers that the mixtape was from Gabriel , who reveals that he 's always had a crush on her . The two slowly start a relationship and Naomi applies for a job to help her mother . She also convinces her mother to let go of her father , just as she is willing to let go of Ely . Naomi admits that although her life is better , she still misses her best friend and reaches out to Ely . The two reconcile , and Naomi finally accepts his sexuality . Ely , meanwhile , has finally found love and is settling down with Bruce 2 . The film ends with Naomi stating that relationships and friendships are different kinds of love , but are still love and therefore , can have the same effects . She then says that everyone can have more than one special person in their life .
