Real Life Story: He described me on Spotted: UCL ... now we're getting hitched!

Anonymous

Sharon was a frampy MA Classicist who never thought shed find love...until, like a in proper Greek tragedy, she found that her Ro- meo was right under her nose all along! Smil- ing Sharon, looking every inch the blushing bride as she chatted to The Cheese Grater in her modern Kentish Town apartment, told all about how her hubby-to-be wooed her...via FACEBOOK!

LIBRARY

“I was sat in the library and decided to check Facebook’, says Shaz. “One of my girlfriends popped up to me on chat and asked what sec- tion of the libes I was in, because someone had posted a message on Spotted about a fitty with a great rack in the Ancient History section.” It turned out that Shazza was there! “My palms were really sweaty as I read the message. Who- ever posted it said they thought I was super hot and had a great bum! I started blushing... I' never been charmed like this before.”

SOCRATES

How did it make Sha feel that her secret ad- mirer had asked to show her his Socratic meth- od via the Spotted page? “I found it adorable” giggles a blushing S-Dog, “I hate it when guys make eye contact and try and find out more about me as a person, so when I realised that I'd been ogled from the other side of the room and had a threateningly saucy post dedicated to me, I knew whoever wrote it was a keeper!” The Big S looks at her cuppa and smiles. It clear that shes fallen in deep...I'm jealous!

CASSEROLE

We ask Shazzter Bojangles for her tips for guys, who, like her hunky beau, want to find love on Spotted. “Its a lot easier than you think! My tip would be to cut out all that soppy stuff; emotions are for wets and weeds!” she laughs. “Show off your verbal dexterity with some suggestive innuendo! Be as sexy as you can... it may be unsolicited, lecherous and anony- mous, but that doesn't mean you can't turn them on with thinly-veiled descriptions of what you wanna do to them in the sack!”

ICE HOCKEY

The couple have yet to set a date for the big day, and DJ Shazzy Sheffis quick to bat away my cheeky suggestion that this might be because her Achilles still only communicates via Spot- ted: UCL. “It’ a bit unconventional, I guess, but it really makes me giggle when I look at my phone and I see ‘to the curvy brunette in our kitchen...do the fucking washing up! I'm so in love” After hearing Sharon’s story,so are we!
