Swipe Left on Your Toxic Ex (and His Dog Too) is a sharp, hilarious, and deeply relatable romantic dramedy that follows Ava Daniels-a millennial tech consultant living in New York City-as she claws her way out of a dead-end relationship with her emotionally unavailable ex (and his clingy chihuahua, Aristotle). After three years of gaslighting, guilt-tripping, and ignoring her own needs, Ava finally breaks free and sets off on a chaotic, wine-soaked journey through dating apps, ghosting, brunch-fueled breakdowns, and spontaneous therapy sessions. What begins as a mission to find the right guy quickly evolves into something far more radical: learning to be okay with herself.
Across a series of dates that range from hilariously absurd to heartbreakingly honest, Ava is forced to confront her patterns, her loneliness, and the lies she's told herself in the name of love. Along the way, she finds strength in her fiercely loyal group chat of best friends, emotional support in a plant named Vera, and closure that doesn't come in the form of an apology-but from dancing alone in her kitchen and choosing not to answer her ex's text. With every swipe, Ava reclaims parts of herself she didn't realize she had lost, realizing that the best glow-up isn't external-it's emotional freedom.
This is not a story about finding the right guy. It's a story about what happens when a woman stops waiting for someone else to choose her-and starts choosing herself. It's for anyone who's ever overstayed in the wrong relationship, mistaken chaos for chemistry, or thought that healing had to look like a romantic comedy. In Ava's world, growth is messy, hilarious, painful, liberating-and always better with wine.
