One Week After Meeting, a Bloody Nose and an ‘I Love You’


Gregory Addicott was on another date when he met Christopher Traina. Six weeks later, they became official and began a “press tour,” introducing each other to their respective families and friends.

Gregory Michael Addicott was on a date with another man when he met Christopher Francis Traina on Jan. 6, 2018.

Mr. Traina was attending his friend Lindsay Braverman Cilento’s birthday party, and he was excited to catch-up with Ms. Cilento and her best friend, Krista Pioppi, who brought her boyfriend.

When Mr. Traina complimented her on the new beau, she mentioned that her colleague, Mr. Addicott, had set them up. That’s when she had an idea.

She told Mr. Traina that she was actually meeting Mr. Addicott at the Upper East Side location of Boxers, which has since closed, after the party. As fate would have it, Mr. Traina already had plans to go to Boxers.

But, when they arrived, things didn’t go quite as she had envisioned. Mr. Addicott recalled, “I was there on a date with someone else I had been seeing. Very unofficial.”

Despite that fact, he took notice of Mr. Traina. “We talked for an hour with the guy I was supposed to be with next to me,” Mr. Addicott said.
