Jenny had been chatting with Tom on Facebook for a few weeks. Both shared a love for books, a dislike for pineapple on pizza, and an appreciation for sarcastic humor. Eventually, they decided to meet up at "Books & Brews," a cozy little café that conveniently catered to both their passions. As Jenny walked in, she spotted Tom at a corner table, oc...

Tinder

So, I matched with this girl on Tinder named Jess—super cute, adventurous spirit, and her bio was full of puns about pizza. I thought, "This is my soulmate!" But we were still on that awkward small talk stage, you know, where you’re trying to fit in your best material before they realize you’re just a weird human who collects vintage rubber ducks....

So there I was, completely ready to ditch my eHarmony date. We had been messaging for weeks, and while his profile said he was "an adventurous spirit," his last message about his obsession with collecting garden gnomes left me staring at my phone like I was trying to solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded. I almost texted him, "Hey, I think my avocados...

OkCupid

So I'm at this café in Tribeca, waiting for my OkCupid date, Rachel. Her profile said she loves cats, coffee, and conspiracy theories—basically the holy trinity of internet dating. Rachel walks in, and immediately it feels like I've been catfished. She's wearing a full-on cat costume. Not just ears and a tail—no, she's committed in a giant tabby...

OkCupid

So, I met this guy on OkCupid. His profile was like a well-written rom-com script: "I love dogs, brunch, and spontaneous road trips!" Classic. We start messaging, and within hours, it felt like we had an inside joke about only eating pizza in dimensions where pineapple was illegal. We decided to meet up at a trendy coffee shop — you know, the kin...

So, I matched with this guy on eHarmony—let’s call him "Mikey." Mikey seemed nice enough, with a professional photo and a bio that didn’t make me want to run away screaming. We decided to meet up, and I thought a cozy café would be perfect for our first date. But Mikey had other plans. Somewhere between me ordering a soy latte and him not-so-casua...

I swiped right on Match and there she was: Sophia, a bio that read “Loves dogs, hates olives, can’t wink.” Clearly, a keeper. We agreed to meet at a coffee shop nestled in the heart of the East Village, where the air smells like ambition and burnt espresso. I arrived first, nervously sipping on my overpriced cold brew while pretending to be deeply...

Hinge

Ah, Hinge. It’s like online dating’s version of a chaotic NYC subway ride, where you're not quite sure what sights, sounds, or smells you’ll encounter. Picture it: A bustling cocktail bar in Manhattan, where the decibel level competes with a sold-out Knicks game. I was on a Hinge date with a guy named Jake, who, unlike his profile, didn't quite e...

So, I matched with this guy on eHarmony who seemed nice enough. He had a solid job, a cute dog in his profile picture, and a love for sushi—always a good sign. We agreed to meet at a sushi restaurant in the East Village, where I thought, “What could possibly go wrong? It’s just sushi!” I arrive and he’s already there, looking a bit... off. I reali...

Once, a guy slid into my DMs with a message that read, “Are you a magician? Because whenever I look at your profile, everyone else disappears. Also, can you make my ex disappear? Asking for a friend.” I mean, bonus points for creativity, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to be his assistant or just recommend he invest in some therapy.
