By James Bloodworth Verified| The i Paper Verified I was 22 and hadn’t had a girlfriend for more than four years. I didn’t feel entitled to one; but I really wanted one. And yet I was floundering. Some men seemed to have it – whatever it was, the secret to getting a girl – whereas others didn’t. I was clearly one who didn’t. You might say that my plight was self-inflicted. I didn’t go out a lot; I was smoking too much cannabis; and I was spending more time on the internet. My social skills had atrophied.

Her home, in the sleepy village of Berrow in Somerset, was like an ocean of tranquillity for me, a place to get away from the arguments that seemed always to be ringing out in the home of my mum and stepfather. My real father had already moved on before I was born; a few years later my mum - Grandma's daughter - had started a new family and had three further children.
