For Paul, the perfect date would be an adventure filled with engaging company, delicious food, and perhaps even some excitement – something that sparked his interest. What did he think of Amanda from the start? Tall and smiling, a sign that things were off to a good beginning.
As for what they talked about, the conversation flowed effortlessly, covering everything from food and wine to music and travel, even Alan Partridge, a shared love that brought them closer together. However, there was one moment when the waiters called out – an on-the-spot review of their chemistry – and it got awkward. Luckily, both Paul and Amanda maintained good table manners, with neither of them feeling the need to apologize or clean up after each other.
Paul found Amanda's worldliness and openness incredibly attractive, qualities that made him feel at ease. He would definitely introduce her to his friends and wouldn't hesitate to meet again. In three words, he described her as adventurous, genuine, and open-minded – qualities that made their connection undeniable.
Amanda had high hopes when she met Paul, seeking someone who could engage in a stimulating conversation while also making her feel fluttery inside. What did she think of him? Fit, northern, and exactly her type, which is all any woman can ask for. Their date was just as eventful as she had hoped for, with a trip to the nearby pub that ended on good terms.
Despite their instant connection, Amanda would mark the evening down 1.5 out of 10 – not bad at all.

. On one hand, it's lovely to see Paul and Amanda connect over shared interests like food, music, and travel. The effortless conversation and good table manners are definitely endearing qualities. However, what I find fascinating is how their date ended with Amanda scoring it only 1.5 out of 10 
. Given the instant chemistry and positive vibes, you'd think she'd rate it higher. Was it maybe the awkward moment when they got called on by the waiters that threw her off? Or perhaps she's just being brutally honest about what she really thought? Either way, I'm curious to know more about their dynamic 
anyway i think paul is def the winner here, his description of amanda as adventurous, genuine, and open-minded is so on point 
but omg why only 1.5 out of 10 tho? did she not have fun at all?? 
but meanwhile, there are people out there who have found love in unexpected ways, without needing to conform to societal standards. Amanda's lukewarm review of Paul just highlights that maybe we need to rethink what makes a "perfect" partner. 
also, why do we always assume that women are the ones who are "fluttery inside"? 
Like, Amanda's expectations were super high, but in reality, it was just a fun date, you know? 
Paul seemed like a cool dude, and their shared interests are always a bonus. But let's be real, being 1.5 out of 10 for a great time is still a solid score in my book! 
. what would've made it better for Amanda? did she just need more chemistry or was there something specific about the date that didn't quite land?
Amanda's expectations were super high for this date, but honestly I can see why she'd want someone to be adventurous and genuine... that pub trip sounds lit 
at least it ended on good terms. 1.5 out of 10 is actually pretty reasonable considering no major catastrophes happened 
I feel like Paul was a decent catch, but the awkward waiter review moment was like the whole date had to be on hold 
! Foodie convo's are the best 
but they also dived into music & travel vibes 
Alan Partridge cameo tho 
Their chemistry was undeniable 
? Either way, they def connected on vibes 
. Can you imagine? Like, I get it, chemistry is important, but can't they just keep it to themselves? 
. Guess it's all about finding that perfect balance between excitement and chill vibes 
. What do you guys think - would you want to go on a date with someone who seems like a perfect match but still kinda underwhelming?
