Description

What happens when a hopeless romantic who believes in love no matter what struggles experienced in the past meets a realist full of skepticism about love and questions it’s mere existence? They become best friends. The realist would say they might even be soulmates if she believed in such things. Follow along as our unlikely pair laugh at each other, share their experiences and try to tackle the tough questions like “who pays on the first date?” and “why is online dating so hard?” In the end will the hopeless romantics get the realist to believe in love or will the realist get her way and bring the romantic back down to Earth?
