April Thompson uses her now fired therapist's words to get out of every date she was ever invited to.
"I have trust issues."
She uses sarcasm as a defence mechanism, only if someone is getting too close, and is a bestselling romantic novelist, even though she doesn't believe in the worldwide concept of love.
And she still won't when Mr tall, dark and handsome stands on her doorstep, mistaking her for his date.
"Why don't you save the affection and the seductive word game for your date. I'm sure she'd love to play."
- many mentions of grief and therapy
