Page 37 of Matched

I exited out of the message thread with Sophie, opening my conversation with Jonas.

Me:

You know how I couldn’t do the LSU Matched date. Can you mess with the algorithm or whatever so I can go on Friday?

Jonas must’ve been on his phone already because his reply came back almost instantly.

Jonas:

You mean how you pulled out of it for no good reason and spent the evening moping instead?

Me:

Fuck off

Jonas:

Did I hit a nerve?

Seriously though. The app isn’t designed like that. I can’t manipulate it that way, but if you go back to your matches and put in your preferred dates, just select Friday. You don’t have to select more than one day

Nate:

Thanks. I’ll do that

Jonas:

Good. See you later. I’m making cottage pie for me and Jada for dinner. Want me to save you some?

Nate:

So domestic

Jonas:

And?

Nate:

Yeah I’ll have some if you have any spare. Don’t worry if not. Thanks

Jonas:

Of course we’ll have some left. You know I always make too much. I’ll save you a plate

Nate:

Thanks mate. Really

Jonas:

Anytime. Did you hear from Charlie or Sophie about their date?

Why was he asking me? It was none of his business. Or mine, for that matter. I wished I’d never mentioned their date to him.

Me:

It went well from what I hear
