You're Such A Catch

Although the two are opposites: Erin drinks, Skraby is sober.  Erin is an extrovert, Skraby is an introvert.  Erin is a glass half full kind of gal, and Skraby is a glass half empty kind of guy; the two discuss dating and relationships from their personal viewpoint.  
 

Skraby drops his best dating advice and what he likes to see from a woman who's interested in getting to know him better.  Spoiler alert, keep the convo going.  He's not a dentist and doesn't like it when it feels like he's pulling teeth.
