READY to have your heart warmed? This couple didn’t meet on the apps, but by the old-fashioned tried-and-true method of being unfaithful to.
Unlike many so-called modern relationships born by algorithm, Hannah Tomlinson and Tom Booker first felt sparks fly in real life, at his then-girlfriend’s birthday party.
Hannah explained: “Tinder, Hinge, Bumble – after a while you just feel exhausted and hopeless. So many matches just fizzle out. And there’s the added stress of worrying one of your husband’s friends will see your profile.
“So it was an incredible surprise to meet Nathan without any cold, impersonal swiping. Our eyes locked across the party and it was like nobody else was there, especially our partners. Before the end of the evening, we’d had it off in the disabled loo.
“That instant connection isn’t something you can replicate in a DM slide. It’s electric, sizzling and worth going though the messy admin of my divorce and getting his girlfriend deported. Can Tinder users say the same?
“We know our relationship doesn’t exist because of Instagram filters and AI-generated chat-up lines. It’s real and it’s built on solid foundations of sexual attraction and infidelity. I pity anyone whose isn’t.”
Tom agreed theirs is a real success story, and added: “Hannah and I are great together. You’ll never find me desperately swiping. Not when I can meet someone sexually entrancing behind her back right there in real life.”
