In a previous interview with Bored Panda, Jeremy told us more about how he asked Tori out. “I actually haven’t been on a date in at least a year. I think I was just craving some social interaction, and being confined by the walls of my apartment inspired some creativity for me,” he said.
“I’m all cooped up in my apartment alone, so its definitely different than my normal life of being out and about all the time (there’s so much to do in NYC!) For now, I’m taking it day by day,” he revealed what it’s like living during quarantine in New York. One day, he looked out the window and saw a girl, Tori, dancing on her roof. “I needed to say ‘Hi’ to her.”
“So I waved to her on my balcony and she waved back. I grabbed my tape, pen, drone, and paper. Then I wrote down my digits and sealed them on my drone. Flirting is normally daunting for me, but since I’ve been quarantined in my apartment for a week now, I was screaming for social interaction.”

Jeremy said that 2020 has been off to a terrible start, but he decided to take a risk either way. “She picked up my drone and I guess it worked because I got a text from her an hour later.”
“I still can’t believe this happened the other day. Now it’s time for part two. I asked her out for dinner, but she said ‘How?’ I sneakily coordinated with her roommate earlier to set it up,” Jeremy told us about how he organized the long-distance rooftop dinner date.
“5 PM hits. It was time for our date. Wait, where is she? Just kidding. We follow the rules. I waved down at the balcony, she waved back. I told her she looked beautiful. So we got on FaceTime and ate our matching organic, microwaved single dinners together.”
…and here’s part 2!

According to the photographer, the date went well and he joked that he might be in a long-distance relationship with “someone who lives across the street from me,” depending on how long the quarantine in New York will last.
Jeremy told us that there was a lot of pressure for their second date because of how many people were watching. However, he said that he can handle it. Jeremy had told us that he had something special planned for his real-life date with Tori. And now we all know that the surprise was him showing up in a plastic bubble!
But how did Jeremy’s sudden shot to fame affect him? “In a positive way! It makes me feel good to know people are rooting for me, but more importantly, it gives something for people to believe in during these strange and dark times. If this story brings joy to people, then it brings joy to me.”
“I don’t think I would have been capable of doing any of this without my mom, Eva Grayzel, who taught me the power of storytelling. She’s a motivational speaker, storyteller, and stage 4 cancer survivor. Without her, I don’t think I would have my optimistic outlook on life to do things like this in times like this,” he said.
