"I was riding downtown at 3am and started
chatting it up with a trainger — turns out we both
have solo tickets to the concert tomorrow so
we're going together!”

“Me and a trainger locked eyes on the subway and I thought he could be the next love of my life, but he got off at the next stop without a word. I didn’t even get his Insta. Oh well.”
