10 unexpected stories of new loves, breakups and woeful Zoom dates over the last year OneYearOn OneYearOfLockdown

“I’ve never kissed, held hands or slept with my boyfriend and we’ve been together almost a year”

An old friend from school got back in contact with me via Facebook – we started chatting and never stopped. He lives in Newcastle and I’m in London, we still haven’t been able to meet up in nine months, which has been really tough for us. In January this year, we became official. I totally feel like I’ve found my person, so it doesn’t matter that we haven’t actually met up as a couple. I never expected to get a boyfriend before we’d even had a chance to date in person. It’s really difficult.

I was speaking to a guy on an app and he seemed charming and funny, so I suggested we do an in-app video call. That option felt safer, but he offered to send ainstead and I was happy to go with it. The subject heading read: “Jane and Sam: informal chat.” I presumed it was a joke… until I joined. I was instantly blasted with an array of awkward interview-based questions like how many relationships have I had and why did they end, do I kiss on the first date and do I see myself having children? He seemed satisfied, nodding and repeating: “That’s very interesting Jane.” He bragged he has foura week and rates them out of 10, while proceeding to run through his long list of non-negotiables.
