JEFF, 36, is a charming, very hard working, focused, smart attorney who is climbing the law firm ladder to become a Senior Partner. He has not had time for a serious relationship. He wonders if that is because of lack of commitment, job focus or his personal history.
SHELLY, 29, is an assertive, driven and competent television producer. She feels somewhat constrained by her gender. A series of relationships have not worked out. She wonders if she is too focused on a career and thinks about her long-term future and biological clock.
ROBERT, 17, is an observer and commentator with a wry sense of humor. He is not emotional but thinks about relationship trajectories.
