5 dates in

Me and Sam had been on 5 or 6 dates when lockdown began. As soon as it started, we decided to stick together throughout it and so we’ve lived together for the last 5 months now. We’ve only spent a couple of nights apart in that whole time. Lockdown coincided with an unbelievably stressful time in my work and Sam has been a rock throughout, always offering support and advice and patience and kindness. Although we’ve had a few big rows, mainly caused by our divergent political views or my hormonal rollercoaster rides, I feel so close to him and so privileged to have been able to spend so much time with him.
