The dates Sidney picks for Declan run the gamut from “fine” to “very not fine.” But the longer the two collaborate on the program, the more Declan realizes he doesn’t want Sidney’s advice, he just wants Sidney. The dates Sidney sets up play into their YouTube program as a new feature called “The Love Study” that aims to explore queer relationships and provide answers. Soon, Declan discovers that he very much might like to jump back into conventional dating, but only if gender-queer Sidney can serve as a guide. Sure, their mutual friends were thinking of connecting Declan’s ex with this new person, Sidney Ertz-Scott…but after one night of hanging out at the bar, suddenly Declan finds himself starring in Sidney’s YouTube program “Your Spinster Uncle” and crushing hard. But relationships have soured for Declan, which is why it feels so odd to him that a new comer to their circle sparks a bit of interest. Time even seems to have healed the chasm that opened in his chest after refusing the man he thought he loved hell, his ex is still very present in their group of friends and they talk frequently. And for a while, that suits his needs just fine. He’ll go out with someone for a good time, just not a long time. True, Declan got cold feet some six years ago, but the tagline hasn’t worn off any more than Declan’s feet have thawed. Declan Swick-Smith’s group of tight-knit friends have given him his very own tagline: he left his last boyfriend at the altar, so watch out.
