Did it last? They will have been married 23 years this year

Just goes to show that blind dates do sometimes work out
Mags, Your daughter was really lucky to find a gud un!
The woman that set up my blind date, showed me a pic of her cousin and he looked lovely.
In real life, he wasn’t.

Re: Have You Ever Been On A Blind Date?

Great stories! I never went on a blind date...but I am cooking one up later this summer. The victims....I mean couple...are my eldest niece and the son of a friend. I've never tried to set anyone up before.

I'll let you know if I can pull it off. If it looks like we are setting them up, they will both run for the hills.

His mother and I are already picking out baby names .

Yes, I married him.

It was arranged by a mutual friend and we have now been married nearly 36 years.

Re: Have You Ever Been On A Blind Date?

Quite a few , I used to do Internet dating .

The men I met were pleasant enough and I would stay for a couple of hours . One man asked me out again and picked me up outside the houses I lived in , within minutes of meeting he asked me did I own my own house ( light bulb moment ) I lied and said no I rented . Never saw him again

Re: Have You Ever Been On A Blind Date?

Once - never again! Someone at the hospital - I had spoken to him a few times on the telephone but never met him. Agreed to go out to dinner with him but we disliked each other on sight and never made it beyond aperitifs!
