Blind date in Cologne: ‘He walked me to my car. Unfortunately, I had parked very close by’

Monique on Ian What were you hoping for? To find a nice connection with someone like-minded and with a romantic touch – it is a date after all! First impressions? We were both relieved to find out we were not matched with our <a href="https://www.healthynewage.com/?s=colleagues">colleagues</a>; with the same names. What did you talk about? Karneval season in Germany. How difficult it is to learn German. Over-tourism spoiling beautiful places. The challenges of ending difficult relationships. And, of course, Trump. Most awkward moment? We arrived at the same time and I recognised him when he asked for a reservation under the Guardian … which was kind of cute, actually. Good <a href="https://www.purevolume.com/?s=table%20manners">table manners</a>? Impeccable. Best thing about Ian? He complimented me, which was very special. He also walked me to my car at the end of the evening. Unfortunately, I had parked very close by. Would you introduce Ian to your friends? To some of them for sure, they would get along. Q&A Fancy a blind date? Show Describe Ian in three words. Sweet, charming and <a href="https://kraken7.net">kraken7</a>; easygoing. What do you think Ian made of you? That I have good taste in wine, I hope. Did you go on somewhere? It was already late, but had it been a Friday I would have proposed it. And … did you kiss? No, but a nice warm hug. I don’t normally kiss on a first date. If you could change one thing about the evening what would it be? To have met on a weekend. Marks out of 10? 9. Would you meet again? We are planning on a hike with my dog soon.
