Summary:
Matteson Perry is a Nice Guy. He remembers birthdays, politely averts his eyes on the subway, and enjoys backgammon. A serial monogamist, he's never asked a stranger out. But when the girl he thought might be The One dumps him, he decides to turn his life around. His plan: 1. Be single for a year. 2. Date a lot of women. 3. Hurt no one's feelings. He wants to disrupt his pattern, have some fun, and discover who he is. Perry throws himself into the modern world of courtship and digital dating, only to discover that even the best-laid plans won't necessarily get you laid. Over the course of a year, he dated almost thirty different women, including a Swedish tourist, a former high school crush, a born-again virgin, a groupie, an actress, a lesbian, and a biter. He brings us into the inner sanctum of failed pickup lines, uncomfortable courtships, awkward texts, and self-discovery, charting the highs and lows of single life and the lessons he learned along the way. It's about learning to date, finding love, and becoming better at life. Matteson Perry can be heard on The Moth: True Stories Told Live at themoth.org/storytellers/matteson-perry. His writing has appeared in The New York Times and McSweeney's. A Colorado native, Matteson lives in Los Angeles. He's now married.
