Dating by Numbers

Bram is tired of being called a robot. He is methodical, literal, and easily overwhelmed by the chaos of modern dating. He craves clarity, predictability, and a partner who doesn't treat his need for structure as a flaw.After yet another failed match‑app conversation ends with him being blocked, he posts a desperate question on a neurodivergent forum: Is it unreasonable to want a highly organised, scheduled approach to intimacy?The answer arrives as a spreadsheet.Roxie is 186cm of raw, functional power. She has spent her life hiding inside oversized hoodies, conditioned to believe her height and strength make her "e;too much."e; Her spreadsheet is a dating manual. Eight dates, each with defined contact, duration, and objectives. No surprises. No ambiguity. No touch until both are ready.What follows is a meticulously planned journey through handshakes, hair‑touching, parallel gym sessions, and a trust workshop. But when a violent mugging on the seventh date forces them to act on instinct, the spreadsheet becomes a living document. Tested, not broken.Dating by Numbers is a slow‑burn, sensory‑rich romance about two neurodivergent people who discover that love can be built with logic, spreadsheets, and an unshakeable commitment to consent. The explicit sex on Date 8 is playful, rough, and deeply earned, a celebration of mutual strength and perfect alignment.Includes: Autistic‑coded protagonists, explicit verbal and non‑verbal consent, sensory‑focused eroticism, a power‑lifting heroine, body positivity, and a happy ending that proves the spreadsheet was never a cage, it was a key.For everyone who has ever been told they are "e;too much"e; or "e;not enough."e;Word Count: 10,545
