Yergin and her date, Stephan Ridley, said they took a chance on a dating app.
“My friends made me my dating profile, so I thought I’d try it,” said Yergin.
“It’s kind of hard to stop somebody during a pandemic and be like, ‘Hey, what’s your name? How are you doing?’ Ridley explained. Although he had his concerns with dating apps. “Are they really who they say they are? Are they crazy? What’s wrong with them? Why are they on this app, where they can’t go out and find somebody?” Ridley joked.
Just a couple weeks later, the two were spending Valentine’s Day together. “Off to a good start,” said Yergin.
