“Hi… so, um… my ex just came in with someone new…”
I’m even more confused now what this has to do with me, since I’ve never met this man before in my life.
“And I was just wondering… can I… um, can you… can we hold hands, so he thinks I have a boyfriend?”

Summary
Charlie Spring is a PhD candidate in Data Science at UC-Berkeley where he uses his supercomputing time to analyze large datasets. He sleeps on a mat under his desk in his cubicle because rent prices in The Bay Area are insane, and roommates suck. He spends his free time pestering his librarian friend, Isaac and volunteering a few hours a week at a local pet shelter. As a lonely data nerd, he decides to start dating on the “data-driven” OK-Cupid platform, but as a data scientist, he can’t help but to optimise his approach to ensure he’s conducting a thorough search for the right partner.
This fic is now posted in full.
There will be two short epilogue chapters added after the story is marked complete.The story was inspired by two fantastic true stories told on the Moth and Story Collider podcasts, respectively. I highly recommend you listen to them, but I'd wait until after you've finished the fic. The story will start T (for language, mainly), raise to M (starting at chapter 8) and will eventually earn the E rating for smut.
I live for your kudos and comments, so please leave both to let me know you're interested in this fic! Thanks!! Xoxo DotSeries
