My friend and I made a resolution to ask someone out in person every month. We failed | Louis Hanson

In a world of swiping and DMs I hoped to be able to put myself out there more - but it turns out the comfort zone is really comfy

Last December, after consuming a few red wines, my friend Hana and I set ourselves the new year resolution to ask someone out in person each month.

With Hana visiting Melbourne from Canberra a couple of times a year, it was typical for our boozy biannual catch-ups to end in questions about our dating lives. This night was not much different.
