Match Game
Last night I was pleasantly surprised with my late night tv watching. Every so often, I’ll flip channels as I try to fall asleep but whenever Blind Date is on, I’m riveted to the screen. That may be one of my more guiltiest pleasures but oh so justifiable. Who can resist peering into the awkwardness of other’s dating while we remain safely in our home? Single. Alone. Wait. Hmmmm…epiphany….sigh.
Kudos though to Blind Date because they did their first ever same sex date with two gents, Scott and Omid. Just go to the Episode Summaries for their date info. I felt bad for Scott because he was quite reserved and seemed to approach the date shyly but appropriately. Omid was way too open and sort of lashed out onto Scott about his past and everything. It was a bit disappointing that it didn’t work out only just cause this was BD’s first try at this but from the get-go, they were not a match.
Omid has a skewered view of relationships and said in the intro he wants someone nice and rich. Ummm….shallow? Just a bit. Scott seems to be fairly grounded but there’s a wall around this guy who seems like he could be a really great guy. I’m sure they both are to some extent but that’s neither here nor there. Just a big thanks to Roger Lodge and the show for doing this. But what took ya so long?!
And so you don’t leave without a new dating tip, Blind Date offers this article about the ten new places to meet someone. Good luck!
