A MAN whose date cut all contact after their second meeting is unashamedly referring to her as his ex-girlfriend.
Oliver O’Connor went on two dates with Grace Wood-Morris in 2022, the second of which ended early after he placed an uninvited hand on her posterior, yet openly refers to those evenings as a ‘relationship’.
O’Connor said: “Our love simply burned too bright to last. But my lonely nights are less so knowing that for a moment she was my girlfriend and that we were two souls blissfully entwined.
“We weren’t together for long – five hours, 36 minutes in total – but that changes nothing. Romeo and Juliet takes place over but a few days. And I know so much about her from the evenings we shared, and also from her Instagram.
“I cannot imagine why she sundered our love. On our last call, her train entered a tunnel. Perhaps she never emerged? Regardless, she’s the reason I’ve been single ever since.
“I go on a date, end up explaining I’m emotionally numb after a previous relationship, the woman asks details like ‘how long was it?’ and then respectfully withdraws, I assume daunted at the prospect of living up to my ex. Understandable.”
Wood-Morris asked: “Who? The arse-grabber?”
