Dating isn't always easy, especially when your crush is a night owl, suspiciously knowledgeable at history (it's like they lived through it!) and likes their steak on the bloodier side. You might already have an intense connection (move over Bella and Edward) or perhaps you're still in your enemies-to-lovers era (Buffy and Spike, who?), but getting past that 'I like you' moment is proving tricky. Enter Crimson Angel Mercy, the supernatural agony aunt, who will spare you the agony as you dip your toe in the dating pool.

Lucy knows what Leo would say if he were still with her, and besides, she'll have her work husband, Jonno, there for emotional support.
