JOHN’S PROBLEM
John had a problem. A big problem. The same problem as Iris, in fact. John was lonely and he was unlucky in love. Just like Iris, he was career-driven – he had become one of the top salesmen in his department. But all the work he did meant that he had no time to focus on the one thing he wanted to do – which was to meet someone and fall in love with them.
John had used dating apps, but not very often. He looked at them every so often and chatted here and there with some of the people he matched with, but nothing ever went very far. He had heard some horror stories about online dating, so he wasn’t prepared to take it too seriously.
