I had a rockin’ date this past summer. I saw a woman in a wine bar, tried to chat her up, failed miserably – but then got her number a week later from a friend of hers who it turns out I knew. Apparently, he did some serious wingman post-op triage and talked me up [...]

Dad’s House readers occasionally wonder why, if I say I’d like to be in a genuine romantic dating relationship, I seem to only blog about coffee date sex, dirty texting, and one night stands. Um, because it’s more interesting?
