Bridget Jones and the younger man followed by the teacher.

I've just got with a young James Spader after initially fancying his twin brother who was murdered.

The murderer tried to kill me but James saved me and now he's holding me tight.

I’m an uneasily married, confused Yale philosophy graduate hanging out platonically but investedly with a much older washed-up filmstar in a Tokyo hotel.

I've just had highly-anticipated wedding night sex (preceded by a trumpet fanfare) with the man I met on the bus to New York that I was travelling on when I ran away from my wealthy father who wanted me to annual my marriage to the aviator I thought I loved.

@Beaumon I fear I have the pirate brain rot good and proper 😂🏴‍☠️

I'm a heroin addict, he's a herion addict. We'll soon be dead.

I'm trapped in a swan's body again... and the only man who can save me has been a complete fool and picked someone else.

Do you really want to be with a man who prances around in shoulder pads and tights?

Not onscreen but feel like my marriage is similar to
the way David Mitchell describes Victoria and their marriage in his book

Sgtmajormummy · 03/03/2025 22:23

I’m a pioneer widow who’s been through a harrowing journey with a bunch of morally bankrupt confederate soldiers taking a Native American chief back to his land to die.
I’m now leaving for a new life in Chicago with Chief Yellow Hawk’s only surviving grandson and the retired captain who I expect I’ll marry and redeem.

Good job he looks like Christian Bale and I look like….

I've survived a zombie apocalypse and keep my boyfriend's best mate locked in the shed.

GarlicStyle · 04/03/2025 01:17

I fell in love with the man protecting me from a barrage of murderers, all tied up with a complicated, top-secret political plot which we had to unravel while being stalked, shot at and crashing cars at high speed. We consummated our relationship four days after we met, on the same day I killed someone and stopped a guy killing my boyfriend.

Now he's off being a secret agent on the other side of the world and I'm in therapy, but I have a feeling things are going to get dangerous again.

I was a virgin Oracle,slept with the hero once,he died and I bore his son.

I'm an older woman (check) who is travelling in Morocco and ends up shagging a Hemsworth.

Not bad.

I want this life.

MrsTerryPratchett · 04/03/2025 01:30

IKR @GarlicStyle not bad.

Theresacatinmykitchenwhatamigonnado · 04/03/2025 03:27

That Hemsworth film had few redeeming features, but blimey, he really was a redeeming feature!

I am a middle aged heiress on holiday in Sicily. My relatively new husband appears to not be all I thought he was. Did he marry me for my money or does he really love me? At least my new friends think I'm fabulous...

Donald Sutherland who is a nazi spy, and I kill him when I find out

I'm a posh C18th pirate in a relationship with another pirate. Things have been tough but they're looking up.

Hopefully the British won't work out where we are though...

👋 Hi @PhineyJ

I'm also a rich pirate with feelings for my rather gorgeous co-captain, although I don't understand them yet. Our budding relationship is about to become rather turbulent. Let's hope we can sort things out!

TriceratopsRocks · 04/03/2025 05:00

@Beaumon it appears you are also the love of my life, although I'm currently oblivious to the fact.

Incidentally, I have also recently been emotionally wrecked by a few Pina Coladas. Why not come and join us over on

The main character in the Resident, I'm on board!

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 04/03/2025 07:35

The weird dynamic of Dr House and Dr Cuddy.

Not so much love's young dream, but bordering on the abusive.

Pumpkincozynights · 04/03/2025 07:47

I’m a burnt out cop with an overbearing mother. He is an untrustworthy teacher on the edge of burn out. Terrible relationship.

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 04/03/2025 07:53

My husband and I are approaching middle age. We have been struggling for money as he was made redundant and has struggled to find another job. Tensions have been high. I've recently started a job as a cleaner for the Bank of England. I've worked out a way of stealing money that's about to be incinerated...

SwanOfThoseThings · 04/03/2025 08:01

I'm a chubby and rather overbearing journalist in an on-off relationship with a smug, long-haired magician's engineer turned crime investigator. We have slept together but he didn't want to repeat it, so I now sabotage any other romantic interests who come near him. Eventually I'll give up on him and bugger off to the USA - I hear there are lots of attractive men in Texas.

marcopront · 04/03/2025 12:17

I'm in a toxic relationship with someone I met in a pod a few weeks ago and am about to marry.

I'm also confused which one of the four people I am.
(that's not part of the story I just find all the couples on Love is Blind interchangeable)

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 03/03/2025 20:50

I am a prostitute tricked into a sham marriage that the mother of my Russian fuckboy husband will have dissolved

Me too! What a little bastard that boy is!

I might find solace with his brooding henchman though.
