one month of them annoying the shit out of their friends by either being on their phones talking to each other (she constantly received selfies), him talking about her to ivery ("she's so hot and cool she works in a morgue") but yeah he's typically pretty chill especially now, in his older age, he's more self aware of how he handles relationships (i.e. poorly). a month would be perfect! a few months in between to cycle through other crushes and then be slapped in the face with a rude awakening that she wasn't abducted by aliens put into witness protection
