Dating advice from Sir Walter Scott:

If you're seeing someone but realise it's probably not going anywhere, don't just ghost them -

explain that your all-consuming passion for the restoration of the Stuart monarchy leaves little room in your heart for rival affections (then flounce off dramatically) ⚔️
