He Facebook messaged me asking where I go fishing, we met the next day and I friendzoned him, went out with him again the next day and spent 8 hours backroading just talking. Two weeks later he bought us a camper and we’ve been traveling and loving ever since. https://t.co/l2uvLQwA2F pic.twitter.com/TQ6xPBVTxF

Met on twitter, tried to convince him to watch @RuPaulsDragRace, waited exactly 2 months after our first date to ask him to be my bf to not look crazy but I knew I wanted it from the 1st day. Now it’s been 4 years and we have watched every single season atleast twice 🤭 https://t.co/PL8ULw9ZeR pic.twitter.com/zK17VNax3a

But, some prefer to flirt with a potential partner in real life.

I was waiting at the airport to pick up my mum and he was also waiting to pick up his mum. We exchanged contact and got talking everyday. We went on dates and one of those dates he asked me out. https://t.co/BT3vkyP7gS pic.twitter.com/Wl4tnU2WqI

We met at the park, he was looking sad and I walked up to him to ask what the matter is. He said his girlfriend have refused to talk to him, I encouraged him to give her time. To cut the long story short, I snatched him from her and now our wedding is slated for next month 😍 https://t.co/i4uHjeg8WB pic.twitter.com/FkXUsvpgPG

He was my doordash driver and was having trouble finding my apartment so he called and the conversation flowed so naturally I ended up inviting him inside to eat the sushi I ordered from shell gas station.

I haven’t got some cute story to tell you all, because I’m lonely af.
But what I’ve learnt from all your tweets is that if I pester someone for long enough and risk getting myself a retraining order, then they might actually end up liking me… https://t.co/9dY0TkBv6r
