Dating a Doctor with a Scary Name

Last winter a very close friend of mine named Abbie met a doctor online. He was perfect on paper, or should I say on computer screen.

After a couple of brief phone conversations they decided to meet at a popular bar after work. Immediately, Abbie was attracted. Not only was… Continue reading

Pick-Up Line of The Week
