O – Survived by Tara

WHO: O

WHAT: Bumble, yet another online dating sight.

WHEN: End of November to last week.

WHERE: Seattle

WHY: Sarah had gotten a group of girls together who read the blog for a fan happy hour. We talked about singledom, we drank, we bonded over sex on the first date versus holding out, we drank, we ate 10 plates of appetizers (truth circle: Sarah and I ate 7 of those 10 plates), and it was fun to meet people who were having or have had similar dating problems and situations like Sarah and I. I had downloaded Bumble that morning so I would have something kinda current to talk about. Sarah’s been with someone for months now, and it was now up to me to stay on top of the most recent dating sites. I had started talked to O that same day.
