Blind date: I hope my handshake wasn't too much of a red flag'
"Would you meet again? Definitely, but as friends. I think we agreed that we're in too different phases of life for anything more. Marks out of 10? I don't put numbers on people, so just for the evening, an 8. Would you introduce Katie to your friends? I would."
A blind date aimed to meet someone outside a usual circle and have an engaging conversation. The first impression was joyful, with immediate interest sparked by tattoos. The conversation covered environmental activism, Project Hail Mary, preferences between the book and film, and favorite places in London. The awkward moment involved uncertainty about whether to hug or shake hands. Table manners were excellent, including agreement that napkins belong on the lap. Katie was described as happy, passionate, and inquisitive, with a sunny personality and strong enthusiasm for her work. A short walk followed, with no kiss. The evening was rated highly, and meeting again was agreed, but only as friends due to different life phases.
