Freddy and I have been together for the best part of two decades and even now there are things I keep from him and, I’m sure, vice versa. Makes you wonder how much they know about each other, those two. Whether they really know all of each other’s dark secrets.

I hadn’t thought of that, when I renamed myself for the dating app. I hadn’t thought that he might have lied too.
