The Bumble Beginning
On a sunny Monday, 8th April 2024, Tobob found himself swiping through Bumble and came across FD’s intriguing profile. Her photos radiated charisma, with one showing her hiking up a scenic hill, and another capturing a candid moment at a music festival. Swipe right!
FD kicked off the conversation with, “Do you prefer Guinness or Jameson?” Tobob, always ready with a quip, replied, “Neither, I’m more of a Baileys in my coffee kind of guy.” Her laughter was palpable even through text.
The Messaging Marathon
Their chats were a delightful blend of banter and deep dives into their interests. They discussed travel, music, and shared funny stories.
After a week of messaging, Tobob suggested they meet up. FD agreed, and they planned a date that promised to be enlightening and fun.
The First Date
Saturday, 20th April 2024, was the day.
The date began at a quirky museum dedicated to the history of folklore. Tobob thought it would be the perfect mix of education and entertainment. They wandered through exhibits, laughing at some of the more bizarre legends and trying to outdo each other with their knowledge of mythical creatures.
The Disaster
Things started to go awry when Tobob suggested they try an interactive exhibit involving dance. With boundless enthusiasm, he accidentally tripped over his own feet and crashed into a display, causing a loud commotion. FD laughed it off, but Tobob could feel the heat of embarrassment rising.
Trying to salvage the evening, Tobob took FD to a nearby pub known for its live music. Unfortunately, he hadn’t checked the schedule, and instead of lively tunes, they walked into a rowdy karaoke night. The noise was deafening, and their attempts at conversation were drowned out by off-key renditions of classic rock songs.
The Goodbye
As the evening wound down, Tobob walked FD to her bus stop. He handed her a small memento he’d picked up from the museum gift shop—a tiny figurine. FD accepted it with a polite smile, clearly bemused by the turn of events.
With an awkward hug and a quick goodbye, they parted ways. Tobob watched FD board the bus, wondering if his unique vibe had made the right impression. It didn’t. Tobob took a long Bumble break.
