ROSIE: Well, with a promise like that, how can I refuse?

ROSIE: If I'm honest, I'm intrigued to see what you'll choose.

TEDDY: How does tomorrow night sound?

LOGAN: Oh? Where are you from?

LOGAN: Depends what you mean by luck. I've had a few decent conversations on here, but haven't been dying to get drinks with anyone just yet.

TEDDY: South Carolina.

TEDDY: Not even me! I'm offended.

KHALIL: I've met some pretty chill people, but I guess it depends what you're looking for. This isn't really the place to find love if that's what you want.

TEDDY: That's definitely not what I want.

TEDDY: I'm mostly here to make friends. I'm brand new to the city.

Olivia: Damn! I'm too late. But next time you're offering, hit a girl up.

Teddy: I certainly will!

Teddy: How are you doing, otherwise?

Teddy: Any exciting plans for the weekend?

KHALIL: Nah, dudes are shitty. They respect men way more than they respect women. But I also don't have much experience with gay men, so who knows.

TEDDY: I can't say I do either, so I'll have to take your word for it.

TEDDY: Have you had much luck on here?

Scarlett: sure! but before that, tell me something about you. it wouldn't be wise to go on a date with someone i barely know, you know?

Teddy: Of course. I think that's very wise.

Teddy: Well. I'm from North Carolina. I went to college in Nashville, and I'm a huge fan of southern food and BBQ. I love to sail, and I just got my boat docked here from home, which is now going to take up most of my weekends.

Teddy: I have two sisters, both are younger, and I miss them terribly. My parents have been happily married for thirty five years and I hope I can have a relationship like theirs someday.

Teddy: I also like classic rock and waffle sundaes.

[...]

Teddy: Your turn!

ROZ: Oh?

ROZ: Maybe you should lead with that next time, Ted.

ROZ: That'll certainly grab people's attention more so than an offer of drinks.

ROZ: Super fancy.

[...]

TEDDY: Only technically. I really just own the building.

[...]

TEDDY: So... is that a yes? Or is your attention still not grabbed?

EVIE: I'm usually just a vodka tonic girl. Maybe throw in a splash of strawberry or raspberry liquor for some flavor.

EVIE: I prefer drinks that are quick to order - you tend to get them a lot faster, and refills are easier. Especially if someone's trying to remember what you were drinking.

TEDDY: You speak from experience!

TEDDY: Were you a bartender in a past life?

LOGAN: I really don't use these apps all that much either. How did your drink invite go? Any takers?

TEDDY: Ah, I'm glad it's not just me.

TEDDY: A couple, yes! I've only been in the city for a few months, so I'm just happy to be around people who aren't my co-workers.

TEDDY: Have you had much luck on here?

Scarlett: you're in the right dating app, I hope it works for you and you end up making a connection or two

Scarlett: as for the offer, we could go out for a drink if you're free

Teddy: I hope the same for you, Scarlett.

Teddy: I'd love to!

Teddy: I'm free tomorrow evening, if that works for you?

KHALIL: Yet.

KHALIL: But you're a dude so I think you're safe.

TEDDY: You never know!!!

TEDDY: At least, not the way people have it sound...

ROZ: the only greenhouses i know of involve plants, so that would be a no from me.

ROZ: is it your usual go to? if so, why?

[...]

TEDDY: Technically I own it.

KHALIL: And how's that going for you so far?

MILES: Nobody has sent me dick pics, so I think we're doing pretty well.

[teddygardners-blog]

message || logan & teddy

LOGAN: It's just a bit much, don't you think? A little too eager for a first message to someone.

TEDDY: I'm taking notes.

TEDDY: Is there anything else I should know about?

[teddygardners-blog]

message || teddy + rosie

ROSIE: It is slightly, yeah.

ROSIE: But forwardness mixed with self-awareness? Brilliant combo.

ROSIE: I can do drinks.

TEDDY: Ah.

TEDDY: Well, thank you.

TEDDY: I know a place, unless you'd rather pick.

TEDDY: (Said place has a cocktail named after your namesake, and I was planning on ordering a pitcher).

ROZ: incredibly forward indeed but also i can appreciate the efficiency of cutting to the quick so to speak

ROZ: what place did you have in mind?

TEDDY: That's a word I'd use to describe myself, probably. Efficient.

TEDDY: It's called Greenhouse. Have you heard of it?

[teddygardners-blog]

message || teddy + scarlett

Scarlett: There's nothing as being too forward in dating apps unless they involve an unsolicited dick pic or something like that, I guess?

Scarlett: How many people have said yes to your question?

Teddy: Well... a few.

Teddy: But in a (pathetic) defense, I'm brand new to the city and can't really deal with being alone in my apartment anymore.

Teddy: I miss people.
