[nora rothchild]

NORA she’ll always be like that!! just fyi! love her to death, just how she is! it was such a fun night though. glad we finally got to meet! minus my idiot date. he called me the next day too, ignored it. the city is great isn’t it? always loud, something to do every where. its the best!

[benicio otero]

Benicio I know it, I don't mind. I'm usually the one with the busier schedule but I'm adaptable. Was that your first date with the guy? It is, I'm never bored here. I forget if you're from here or not.

[nora rothchild]

NORA good just wanna make sure you know! it was my second date actually. first one was actually ok too??? i’m from Connecticut actually but my family splits time here too. where are you from?

[benicio otero]

Benicio How'd you meet him? I'm from Puerto Rico. I spent some years growing up in Boston though, so we're both New Englanders.

[nora rothchild]

NORA raya. one night after a lot of wine rosie and i made an account! do you have family still in Puerto Rico? I stayed in San Juan once on the way to st. barts!

[benicio otero]

Benicio That's app life. Do you think there will be a third date? I do, my mom's side is from San Juan and my dad's is from Caguas. Most everyone is there except me and my siblings. How did you like it?

[nora rothchild]

NORA no way!! he ruined his chances. Are your siblings close by to you or everywhere? loved it, it was so fun!

[benicio otero]

Benicio His loss, he's gonna regret it. My older sister is in Brooklyn, my little brother and sister are still in Mass. Do you have any siblings? I'm glad you've been to PR, I hope to take Rosie there one day.

[nora rothchild]

NORA aw you’re sweet. rosie and i have this ongoing joke that i try so hard and continue to attract the wrong ones. that’s why we made the app! but failing still. not too far, that’s nice! yes, i have an older brother he’s here in nyc and a younger brother who’s at school in Connecticut. oh you do? oh you do? sounds like you really like my friend!

[benicio otero]

Benicio I hope that doesn't discourage you though. Things can happen when you least expect it. I just want to give her the Puerto Rican experience, you know? How did you two meet anyway?

[nora rothchild]

NORA Not giving up forever. Just going to make that my end of my dates for the month. Restart next month! What does the Puerto Rican experience all entail? We were paired freshman year to be roommates. We met on the sites that help you choose, etc.

[benicio otero]

Benicio There you go, that's the spirit. You ever want to be fixed up with any of my friends you let me know. Good food, good music, dancing, the island vibes. I love it so I share it. Oh so you go way back then. What did you study in college?

[nora rothchild]

NORA what are some of your friends like? Better start making her block out some time now! How often do you visit? Business/finance. Just ended up leaving that world!

[benicio otero]

Benicio It depends on what you're looking for. I have a big variety of friends. I visit often, several times a year. Most recently was for the holidays. Wow I'm surrounded by finance girls all of a sudden, I never saw that coming.

[nora rothchild]

NORA i'm going to keep this in mind! fun! when's the best time to go? well it is new york after all!! though rosie is better at it/more serious than i was. i worked for an accountant before and now i own a business.
