Eleonora, Jared & Jade

Eleonora Sruge, 34

Manhattan, NY

Real Estate Agent

When Eleonora and Jared met they were teenagers living in Soho. It was right before Soho really took off and became the “IT” area to live in. Eleonora was studious and never wanted to disappoint her mother while Jared was a wild child who took her under his wing. Instead of going to college, Jared stayed in the city and earned his real estate license. Eleonora went off to study finance in Boston. When she came back to the city, Jared was impressively successful. He was helping the Hilton’s, the Olsen twins and Nicole Richie find their pads in the city. He was known, at a young age, to really have it all. Galas, parties full of the who’s who, fashion shows and important dinners filled his schedule. They reconnected after college and Eleonora wanted what he had. But she wanted to be taken seriously as a young girl in her 20’s. Eventually she ended up at the same brokerage as Jared and together they listed some of the most expensive properties in the city. Eleonora never worked out, only focused on work and didn’t even date or have sex for 7 years. She wanted to be the best and frankly, she wanted to make a ton of money. Eleonora was known as an intensely hard worker and a bit shameless. That’s when she met Jade.

Like Eleonora, Jade got into real estate in her 20’s. She had to work her way to the top, but she eventually got there (this past year she sold $150 million.) Plus, it didn’t hurt her business that she’s gorgeous and incredibly social. Coming from LA, all her friends were in music or entertainment so when she met Eleonora, a girl from the city who knew a lot of people and was bold and no non-sense like her, she knew they’d be friends. At this time, Eleonora decided to prioritize her social life, she had made all this money and knew it was time to think about a partner. She obsessively went to Traci Anderson to work out, dieted, got the best hair stylist in the city and transformed into a total bombshell. Jade, Eleonora and Jared were the three musketeers. But eventually, Eleonora started to feel like Jade was jealous of all her attention and connections. And Jade felt like Eleonora got a big head and changed into a whole different person, during which, she was basically her therapist. Today Eleonora and Jade care about one another but there’s too much drama, tension and baggage to really consider one another true friends. They are friends on the brink. The know and like one another, will spend time together, but animosity, history and the past all cloud what could be a real and true friendship.

Jared met the man of his dreams and the two are planning their wedding in Palm Beach for next year. Both Eleonora and Jade will be in attendance and he wants everything to go smoothly. He’s very much in the middle as they both talk to him frequently about each other. Jade found love in Covid with an older man who’s divorced with two kids. It was so hot and heavy when the city was shut down, but now she’s concerned that the relationship is going to end. The closeness and romantic feelings aren’t there like they once were. Is she really in love with him or is she in love with the idea of him? Or was he really there for convenience? She’s unsure if this relationship will work out. What’s more: NYC is open and to her core she’s a party girl. Her partner now doesn’t want to do much and she feels like if he hadn’t moved in, they’d be broken up.

Eleonora’s love life is all over the map. She dated an MMA fighter, a celebrity personal trainer and even got thrown into the press for a viral rumor involving a Bachelor star. As much as that lie hurt her, she isn’t scared of attention. She tends to like guys who play hard to get, but she loves the chase. And she’s good at it.
