Introduction

       Dear Reader,

      A little while ago, I was in the darkest depths of singledom. I hadn’t dated anyone in a long time, it was utter desperation-stations. So, I did what any normal twenty-something would do … I downloaded dating apps and started swiping furiously. Determined to find the man of my dreams.
