Lockdown and contact restrictions limit our opportunities to meet people and fall in love. But where there is a will …
Admittedly, falling in love when you cannot go out and be with people appears to be much less likely or more difficult than under non-pandemic conditions. But where there is a human will, there is almost always a way – and in this case there are even several.
