Looking for love while in quarantine is proving difficult for everyone — even the Haim sisters.
Two-thirds of the band — Danielle and Alana Haim — sat down for Spotify’s podcast series “Butt Dial” and talked about their lack of dating success while on lockdown.
“I mean, actually, funny enough … I don’t want to say his name. It’s, like, obviously we are in quarantine and everyone is home so the funniest thing I’ve had to deal with, like, talking to dudes during quarantine is that they have zero excuse to not text me back,” said Alana, 28.
“This is also making me sound needy. I’m not a needy person. I don’t need you to text me back, but there was this one guy who literally couldn’t get it together … because, like, the timeline of what’s going on in quarantine, you talk on text a little bit, then move over to FaceTime and now we are having a date thing, we are drinking wine, nothing too crazy … and we literally couldn’t get it together on what time to FaceTime. And I just don’t know how that’s possible because we’re all home. I just think he didn’t want to FaceTime, but didn’t want to tell me.”
Her conclusion? “He definitely was just ghosting me.”
Meanwhile, Danielle, 31, has been hanging out a lot with her dog — who has problems of its own.
“I have a very active dog and being in quarantine is helping matters much,” she said. “I have one big window in my living room and you can see a tree and there is this squirrel and you can see my window and like my dog goes nuts whenever the squirrel is hanging inside the tree. When recently since I’ve been home, I do think the squirrel is taunting my dog. I have to believe it. It waits in full plain view and looks for my dog in the window and my dog actually has bad eyes. So, I’ll actually see the squirrel first and I’ll be like, ‘Oh no. Get the f–k out of here.’ And it will just chill there, waiting for my dog to see it. I’ll try and distract her from seeing the squirrel and the squirrel will just stay there until my dog flips the f–k out.”
