The 12 Dates of Christmas (and Ode to Online Dating)

in Life on 12/05/16 by Bekah 1 Comment

If you don’t have friends online dating right now, you’re missing out on the most horrific, hilarious, satisfying, “sits on couch and eats popcorn enjoying the stories” moments life has to offer.

From Bumble to Tinder to OK Cupid to Coffee Meets Bagel, the opportunities for ghosting, FaceTime requests after 5 minutes of texting and deep, soul-satisfying questions like “What’s your favorite position?” are endless.

Inspired by the worst Holiday song and every friend I know attempting to find their “modern love” story today, I bring you:

The 12 Dates of Christmas

On the first date of Christmas my online match gave to me: Emotional unavailability

On the second date of Christmas my online match gave to me: Two unwanted dick pics
And emotional unavailability.
