There’s nothing worse than thinking a blind date has gone surprisingly well, only to discover (probably by way of an unanswered text) that the other party… didn’t feel the same.
In truth, there is a lot can go wrong when blind dating.
Aside from the fact that they could be, you know, a murderer, there are myriad ways a date with someone you’ve never met can turn sour.
And as this hilarious viral tweet has taught us, a conversation about politics will usually do the trick.
Only, one half of this particular blind date didn’t quite see it that way… but he didn’t find out via ghosting. Details of how their date went south were published in a student newspaper, and now hundreds of thousands of strangers know exactly how it all went down.
And it’s not pretty.
Danny Tapper and Sophia Kypriotis were paired together by the “blind date” section in Newcastle University’s student paper, on the condition both wrote post-date reports for publication.
So Newcastle Uni’s student paper does a ‘blind date’ section and I thought from the guy’s POV that it wasn’t a good date but it wasn’t terrible, then I read the girl’s POV and yikes pic.twitter.com/uw7bYL4lA2
