Love Stories: meet Tina Bell and Eddie Dostine

Jobs: Waitress, and head of growth at Airtasker

Ages: Tina is 24, Eddie is 28

Live: Fulham and Vauxhall

Length of time together: Two months

Status: Official

The meet-cute

Eddie: We met on a new dating app called HappyGo that pairs you up for that evening, so I guess we both asked each other out. I think I made a joke about the pub that HappyGo suggested we should go to. We went to The Windmill in Clapham and stayed there for a few hours.

Pet names

Eddie: I accidentally called her Koala on our first date because we both have some Australian blood in us.

First impressions

Tina: Eddie was good-looking and charming, so he made a good first impression. We both love festivals (we went to Field Day last weekend) and have both done half-marathons before (but not together! Yet...). We’re both secret Marvel fans too.

The dating game

Tina: Our dates have been quite activity-based: we went to Otherworld, a VR arcade in Haggerston, and Eddie was obsessed. We shot robots and killed zombies for an hour. We’ve also been to a detective agency in Earl’s Court — we had to come up with a story to get in.

Eddie: I’m planning to ask her on a sushi date very soon.

Friend zone

Tina: My housemates like Eddie — he’s trying very hard not to make the classic boy mistakes that piss us off. So far he’s doing well. We all went for brunch last weekend and he was extra funny. I think the spotlight got to him.

Best and worst

Tina: My favourite thing about him is his laugh, though his most annoying habit is probably biking. I’m not a big fan of Lycra — he’s turned up wearing it to the pub in front of my friends.

The L-bomb

Eddie: It’s early days so we haven’t said I love you yet, although I have told her I love things about her.
