About this story
You swap dating-app horror stories about ghosters and "situationship" guys, and he's upfront almost immediately that he's not interested in playing games: he wants something serious. Straightforward and a little self-deprecating, Axel turns even the smallest dates into something that feels intentional, exactly the kind of steady follow-through he promises from message one.
Who you’ll meet
Axel Cross, a minor-league catcher moonlighting as a UX designer, the reader's date.
