This was really cute! I love the Apple vs. Microsoft disagreement in the beginning.

Maybe I could come over there and you could explain why the internet lied to me about macs getting viruses.
(Like that's your only reason.)

Thanks for writing this~

thank you for the sweet comment!

This was wonderfully funny and sweet! I'm always tickled by Dunkin Donuts vs. Starbucks vs. Tim Hortons, Marmite vs. Vegemite, Apple vs. Mac, etc. debates.

"What are you doing out there?"
"Contemplating the effects of my defection."

Just amazing! Awesome work for your first exchange :)

I have been over the Windows/Apple debate once too often, AND CAN I JUST TELL YOU THAT THIS IS PERFECT?
Istg I loved every. single. line of it. I laughed so much, because this all felt so familiar to me. Just the way you displayed the whole distaste for the other brand, but the way they disregard it because they're both attracted to each other and hope to not spend the end of the Valentine's Day alone - amazing.
Also this might be my favourite line of all:[12:53] Yixingle: Tell me you weren’t reading my profile on an android
I DON'T THINK YOU HAVE AN IDEA HOW LOUD I LAUGHED AT IT, IT'S JUST PERFECT.
Though it's closely followed by [1:15] Galaxyifan: 6. I hope you’ll be getting off sometime today, but when is your shift over?, because smooth, Yifan, so smooth

your comment made me grin for like an hour, omg. thank you so much!!

all of my friends in high school had iphones & I had an android, so we had cute little fights about it a lot too.

I'm so glad you enjoyed, and thank you again for the great comment <3

[kinkyixing]

thank you!! writing smut for them is really tempting tbh, I might have to do it now.

Words can't express how much I loved this. Everything about it, from the fact that they were working for Windows VS Apple to them being on okcupid lmao xD Their banter was A+ and wow what a first meeting eh? Lovely. ❤
((hopes for a continuation fic))
