Helen:Okay, I’ll try :-) Can I ask another question?
Brody:Yes, but only if I get to ask my last question straight after?
Helen:Deal!
So, what are you looking for on here?
Helen inwardly recoiled as soon as she typed the words. Such. An. Awkward. Question. She clearly had a post-Jonathan hang-up about commitment. She may as well have sent him a gif of Beyoncé singing ‘put a ring on it’.
Brody:Hehe well … let’s just say that even if I thought that dating 6 women at a time was a good idea at this stage in life, I don’t have the time to do that. I like to focus: in all areas.
Oh.
Was that your subtle way of telling me you’re looking for something serious?
Helen:No – well maybe, yes …
Sorry, I just thought I should ask as I’m not much of a dating app person.
In fact, my nan suggested I should sign up …
So, you’re actually the first guy I’ve chatted to.
Helen Pines! You have NO game.
Brody:Well, your nan sounds like a pretty cool lady. So, do I get to ask my question yet?
Helen:Yes of course – sorry!
Brody:Final question: are you free tomorrow?
Helen:Yes, I should be …
Read: I can fit you into my packed schedule, somewhere between scrolling Instagram and Netflix …
Brody:Maybe I can take you for lunch then?
Okay, that is not a hook-up: it’s a proper lunch date.
Helen:That would be lovely. I’m near Truro but maybe we could do the coast?
Brody:If it’s not too far – how about Kynance Cove? There’s a café there that does really good avo toast. Might even be up to your standards ;-)
Oh. My. God.
Helen:Shall we say 1pm?
I’ll get my brother to give me a lift :-)
Brody:I’ll be there.
I’ve enjoyed chatting to you a lot, Helen.
See you tomorrow x
Helen:Me too :-)
See you xx
