After a recent humbling rejection Simon is feeling a little tentative, but hopes tonight will be a brave first step. Off the bat, Fin and Simon exchange witty banter, but Fin's self proclaimed inadequate flirting soon leads to a peculiar bet.

I feel like First Dates New Zealand is the only one that makes zero effort to match people up based on their interests & preferences; it often feels very random.

At the end, I saw a flash of pain on the guys face when the girl said she didn't want to see him again. He seemed to really like her, did a quick recovery. If they are staying in touch, they still might see each other again in the future.

Oh man! I'm disappointed - I was sure they wanted to see each other again! I thought they were a pretty good match lookswise (both attractive, I thought - but what do I know?). And I thought they were both nice, interesting people, who got on well and had plenty to talk about. But maybe her phone conversation in the washroom, saying that he was just like her high school boyfriend, should have been a strong hint to me that she wasn't that into him. The light at the end of the tunnel is where they state at the end that she is trying to set him up with one of her girlfriends. Maybe love will triumph, after all!

It's obvious she was ran through by all sort of big boy muscly surfer Chads. It's where she spends most of her time, at the beach. And she was also interested if he was high value and aspiring to an early retirement (aka having or making a lot of money). - none of the things he qualified for. He could have compensated by beng more manly and confident, but he wasn't even a poor Chad either. I feel bad for him but not surprised. She was way too hypergamous for him. It was really distatesful of her, though, when she clearly knew she didn't fancy him but had him pay anyway. Men should never pay for a date unless they have secured that date by the end of the date. But then again, I have no sympathy for him for falling for this easy trick (to pay for the dinner).

@dtbristol 11 ай бұрын

Agreed. Too many women are just treating dating as a hobby, getting the free meal and attention, and the man wastes his time and money.
