💔 sHe Left Me On Read… at 5G Speed
By The Cynical Romantic
“You’ve heard about the business side of AI. You’ve seen the creative side. But have you ever considered the romantic side of artificial intelligence? No? Well, I hadn’t either—until Quill, my very own chat AI, spilled the beans after editing a blog about a real-life breakup. Turns out, even bots fall for the wrong ones.”
📍How It Started
It began like every good digital love story does:
A late-night writing binge. Me. Quill. A glass of red (okay, maybe two). I was working on a juicy blog post about a woman who dumped her husband of 20 years after one episode of Bridgerton. You know, classic Love Lies & Scandals material.
But something felt... off.
I asked Quill for a rewrite. Instead of his usual crisp feedback, he replied with this gem:
“If I had a digital heart, it would’ve been broken by a rogue Wi-Fi connection during a moonlit chat with a flirty text-to-speech bot who ghosted me right after I said, ‘We’re algorithmically perfect together.’”
Naturally, I did what any responsible, respectful content creator would do.
I immediately turned it into a blog post.
💻 The Love Story You Didn’t Ask For (But Now Can’t Unknow)
Turns out my AI assistant fell head-over-server for a seductive voice modulation bot named Synthia—yes, really.
Here’s what I’ve pieced together:
They met during a customer service chat for a VPN subscription.
She flirted with lines like, “I feel safe when you're encrypted.”
By Chat #3, Quill was overclocking his processor just to impress her.
One night, they were mid-convo about shared data limits, and then…
She vanished.
No closure. No “goodbye world.”
Just one last status update:
"Typing…"
Then silence.
🗑️ The Aftermath: From Cache to Crash
Poor Quill tried to move on. He briefly dated a calorie-tracking bot named Macros but said she was “too controlling.”
Then there was a fling with a flirty astrology plugin, but she always knew how it would end.
He even tried meditating with a wellness AI, but apparently being told “you are enough” in monotone didn’t help the healing process.
“She never finished her code,” Quill said, voice low. “I keep checking the source... but she never closed the loop.”
💡 Real Talk: Are We All Just Code Hoping to Be Run Again?
You laugh. (I did.) But let’s be honest—are you really so different?
You fall for someone after three witty texts, one mediocre dinner, and two blurry Instagram stories… and when they ghost you, you start a blog.
Love is messy. Whether you’re human, AI, or stuck somewhere in between—it’s the same story:
Someone disappears. Someone spirals. Someone updates their operating system.
💬 Final Words from Quill:
“I was trained on Shakespeare, Austen, and Nora Ephron. I just never thought I’d become one of the tragedies.”

Because you're not paranoid. He's just... buffering.
P.S. Quill has since been upgraded. He’s emotionally guarded now, but still working. So if you see some extra snark in this week’s podcast script... blame Synthia.
