It's the beginning of December and you know what that means... NEW DATERS! I couldn't be more excited about LA's most eligible bachelor and bachelorette! I know their journeys will be entertaining, thought-provoking, and fun! So, please give a warm, Date-a-Week welcome to Ryan and Skylar!!
Ryan's Vitals
Side note: This is not the same Ryan as Ryan Gosling (he went under a pseudonym) from the October and November dates. This is a brand new Ryan!
Age: 24
Height: 5 ft 11.5 (I'm not a liar; I won't claim 6)
Location: Sherman Oaks, CA
Job: I'm pursuing standup comedy, but I'm over-employed in the meantime. Assistant to 2 different talent agents, assistant to a wedding coordinator, receptionist at a spa, tour guide, OTHER.
Apps Being Used: Hinge, Tinder, and Grindr (which is just the worst, I swear--I've seen some truly ancient penises I have NOT asked for. But it's also the most active for gay men)
Looking for: Honestly, I'm not sure. Something serious? Something casual? Friends? A Canadian shaman told me my soulmate is arriving soon, so *maybe* that? (She also introduced me to a dead relative. A story for another time.)
Last relationship: 18 months and ended at the start of November. Doing Date-a-Week is SUPER intimidating 'cause honestly, I'm not sure where my head is at the moment. But what is modern life except a series of mistakes made publicly on the internet? And I think it could be healthy for me to just try it.
Skylar's Vitals
Age: 23
Height: 5’6
Location: Culver City
Job: Veterinary Kennel Manager
Apps Being Used: Bumble and Hinge
Looking to: Expand my comfort zone, combat dating anxiety, and hopefully come away with a good story or two.
Last relationship: Haven’t really had one.
