New York pharmaceutical copywriter Gavin is a neurotic Woody Allen-ish personality who has never been in love. Pennsylvania-based printing press employee Stacey has a subtle wit and has been engaged before. For the past six months, they have been flirting online and finally agree to meet. Their path to happily-ever-after is complicated by the screwed-up circus of people closest to them. Gavin's best friend Archie is often wrong but never in doubt and the loudest in any room. Stacey's best friend, Nessa, is brutally blunt—actually, just brutal, in general. Gavin lives in an apartment below his parents, Pam, who has zero filter and little volume control, and Michael, who thinks of himself as the family's voice of reason. Stacey lives in the tiny town of Dillsburg. Stacey's long-distance romance unnerves her widowed mom and paternal uncle, who fear she might fall in love and move away to the big city. How will they ever stay together?
