Peanuts - Part 1

“What do you think of that couple there,” she said. Her eyes fixated on the two gentlemen sitting across the room.


“You’re asking me my guess?” He said with a smug. “Well, they’re on a Grindr date, clearly. Casual drinks after work. He’s the younger, confident one. Early thirties. Bit of a lightweight”. Gesturing towards the man in the suit. “He’s there to impress. No one wears an ironed turquoise shirt and grey suit to work.” His words muffled by the sound of crunching peanuts. “But you see there. He’s so nervous. He takes three drinks for every one the other fellow does. Clearly he really likes this guy. Done all the research and stuff. Now he’s just hoping the date goes well. Not even enjoying it. Spending the whole time over thinking everything. Poor guy.”
