Cyberdude dating story Dates & Wires was not for me, until it very was

Dates & Wires is clearly not meant for me. I am not into dudes, I loathe clubbing, and the closest thing I get to a hookup is a low-pressure midday meet that becomes a reluctant "I should probably go home" about 36 hours later. I am not at all interested in humping randos, or even "dating" and its arbitrary rules and performances.

And yet, I've played a game about all those things over and over, enjoying it more with every go, trying to wring out every drop of dialogue and characterisation. It is absolutely meant for me, because it's about people looking out for each other.
