Dating in 2020

by Walter   Apr 14, 2020


There's this girl that I like
That I know from school
I send her a friend request
Hope she doesn't ridicule

She instantly replies
And accepts, I'm impressed!
She is now on my Facebook
With all of the rest

She sends me a smiley face
And then even a 'Hi"
Now I'm so happy
And instantly reply

Our messages exchange
It's starting to get late
So I bravely ask her
To go out on a date

There is a slight pause
But then she replies
With emojis and "Yes!"
And I'm so surprised

We agree to meet up
Tomorrow at the mall
With a movie with dinner
To look forwards for

I arrive and then see her
Emoji a kiss for my crush
I see her reply with
An emoji for blush

She then takes a photo
At the table we just sat
To show all her friends
While they wait on Snapchat

I order our dinner
With the menu on-line
As we compare pictures
Of the food we will dine

We can keep chatting
Even when we start to eat
Because with our phones
No need to be discreet

I message if she likes
This food it's so yum
So she answers back with
An emoji tongue

Things are going well
Then I pay with my phone
Leaving the waiter a tip
And this moment I own

We then leave to see
The movie we chose
Watched the previews on YouTube
Of all the shows

Today this seems to be
The new method preferred
That couples can now date
Without saying a word

    Walter, a very creative write so fitting for these times. I was thoroughly engaged about your date, I felt like I was there (not in a creepy way, lol).
