Moving through the complexities of dating, Stella and her friends quickly realised that the online world was simply a revolving door of people coming and going.

It had become a collection of hopeful souls and artificial feelings, all competing for attention. Conversing with many, yet rarely sealing the deal; because in the blink of an eye it was all yesterday’s news, and there were fresh, new people to talk to instead.

Craving love, and being burnt by the fire, losing hope, losing themselves, and getting lost within the deep, dark caverns of this online world of desire.

The fickle nature of being just a number and waiting your turn; of broken promises and stretching the truth. The short-lived swipe-right, swipe-left world around them was no easy game to play. The virtual world was certainly not a place to become emotionally invested in.

As Stella takes a reminiscent walk down memory lane, the stories of her and her friends are discovered, each with their own complicated tales of love, hope, heartbreak, and regret.

Was there really such a thing as finding the one? Or was that all just a fantasy?
