WE'RE GETTING MARRIED

We almost didn't meet at all. Sure, Thomas had messaged me, we'd "matched", and exchanged banter that was clever enough through the app. But, after enduring the endless deluge of idiocy that can be online dating, I decided to delete my OkCupid account. However, the very same day I had vowed to delete the app from my phone, Thomas messaged me asking if we could meet for a drink. I said yes because his opening line dealt with feminism and I'm always down for cider, wine, and bringing down the patriarchy...and he was kind of cute. And so we met. And we talked about the patriarchy. And politics. And religion. You know, all the stuff you're not supposed to talk about on a first date? And we (I) haven't stopped talking since. **Make no mistake, the internet is mostly cats and rage. But it definitely has a few Thomas Dreas in there, too.
