TONIGHT’S FIRST DATES was a rollercoaster of emotions.
First up, was interior designer Ciaran from Maynooth and self confessed ‘shy guy’ was set up with Katie
Katie just happened to be a champion Irish dancer from Donaghmede
There had to be one, didn’t there?
They got on well, sloppy ribs eating aside
Everyone was rooting for them
They agreed to go on a second date!
Success number one was in the bag.
Next up was Brian from Wicklow who opened with this little gem:
I enjoy getting with a girl and then getting with another one next week.
Charming
His date was Sarah from Dublin, who hadn’t gone out with an Irish guy in six years
In fact, she said Irish guys have ‘no game’.
People weren’t enamored
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Besides that, they got on well, discussing their favourite animals, how sound they are, and Sarah pulled out the most impressive eyelash flutter we have seen in a long time
She even did a bathroom selfie pose, without taking a selfie
Impressive.
Sarah admitted that she chews cherry chewing gum so her exes will remember her by it, and even encouraged her willing man to steal a glass of wine from the table next to them.
Goals?
AND they wanted to see each other again
SUCCESS number 2.
Our next chance at love came from IT executive Gareth, who was married for three years
Twitter was in love with him
His date was Rebecca from Dublin, who hadn’t got the hop for seven years
They got on like a house on fire, and went off to the pub together after
SUCCESS number 3.
Navan barista Eoin got off to a shaky start when he learned the most crushing thing ever about his date
Karen from Louth is an accountant, and dropped the biggest bombshell EVER on the poor chap
SHE DIDN’T LIKE COFFEE
But he looked past it, and the two agreed to meet up again
She even got into coffee, according to their final update!
Last up was Noelle and her date, copywriter Shem
Shem was mad for the craic altogether
They spoke about how they didn’t like people touching their cool hair, and Noelle opened up about her battle with cancer, from which she has been clear of since August.
Then she fecked a lemon on the floor and we knew it was love
But sadly, they used the F word, and agreed to remain ‘friends’ because their banter was so good
Still, after all our moaning last week, four outta five aint bad?
