I was shooting and was showing an actor how the dating apps work and I randomly saw a message that this guy used his one-time extension to meet me.
"There was 10 minutes left for me to reply. It was so random because had I not logged in to show my friend, I never would have met him! I saw his smile and said 'I'm gonna swipe for this guy!' We texted, then moved to an hour and a half call, then I got back to LA, we went out for our first date and that was that! I knew right away he was the one."
