06:41be very
06:49bold
06:50enter jerry immaculately attired but still looking for something to tie it all together
06:56i think it's the greatest feeling in the world hard to match
07:02i can manage on my own but at the same time you do need love you do need companionship
07:09what do you go for physically in a woman not too small and obviously not too tall
07:14i haven't got the right words to say good cleavage however you see you're a boot man yes
07:22hey jerry jerry yeah nice to meet you jerry

08:33but if you're drinking nice wine i don't i don't mean i don't mean petrol station speck
08:39i think humor is a really really important thing in a person because it's just a really good way to
08:44get along with someone oh lovely look at that especially if they're not too sensitive have you
08:50been on many days before five or six maybe in double oh okay i had a situation for a while
08:55with a
08:56lawyer oh yeah that was like kind of like two months or so and just didn't work out
09:01um now i realized i could do better
09:06okay i'm not the lawyer thing personality and stuff yeah i would i would hope so
09:12you what have you ever been on a date before you have oh my god yeah what sort of dates
09:19like drink
09:19dates dinner days no i've been on like breakfast dates like when i work that's clever actually because
09:24everyone like you have to go and do the rest of your day yeah i'm very driven so i kind
09:29of would like
09:29someone who's actually like has their kind of stuff together there was one guy we went on like a few
09:34breakfast dates i didn't really like him so i just left him an open snapchat and then you like to
09:39ghost
09:39people no like he didn't really do anything with himself i'm like that's kind of like a turn up for
09:46me as well like he he did like a waste like he did he was a waster yeah someone who's
09:51not ambitious
09:52doesn't have goals or doesn't have a desire to set goals i i find that really unattractive
09:58we left so many puts in the effort yeah it's amazing
10:07this is nice good choice nice restaurant
10:15thank you very much very becoming indeed for me it really is when you meet somebody it's about
10:23the personality isn't it you can say somebody's very handsome but after a while you don't notice that
10:29and how did you end up in need life i i i suppose married at 23 you had a child
10:36at 24. it was a good
10:38marriage i think we just grew apart divorced and i met somebody and with well i didn't meet somebody
10:44i knew him for 30 years yeah yeah yeah and we ended up together and he had a house down
10:50there and um
10:51three years later he died of cancer oh breaking that was 18 years ago oh gosh 18 years sorry to
10:59hear
10:59that yes what about yourself divorced from a lovely lady i was married for about 10 years um i'm not
11:07now for the last 17-ish years we're on good terms yes she has to be you have to that's
11:14good and the same
11:15yeah it's not always easy but it's a blessing isn't it yeah yeah i'm kind of a conundrum because while
11:20i
11:20say i'm happily unmarried simultaneously looking for love and have your children no no i never had
11:28thank god i just say thank god in a callous way you're worried to say that because i never want
11:34them really yeah yeah yeah i might be too hedonistic or um just short of commitment a bit um if
11:43i'm honest
11:44and i'm here to be honest whether i ever come to regret that or not i can't be sure well
11:51you're
11:51probably you're probably regretted now yeah yeah yeah yeah so it's so i think at this stage i'm content
11:57with that i don't know why i get on greater children do you know so that's being a child isn't
12:04it yes
12:05it's most important it's most important yeah it really really is sounds like you if a unit
12:10child hasn't left you no no absolutely
12:22in the game of love it's probably wise to let leah make the first move i'm one of those people
12:28that
12:29if i think someone is attractive i would not wait for them to come up to me i would more
12:33than likely go
12:34and be like hi you are gorgeous can i get your number but then there's been a couple of times
12:40in
12:40my clothes where some fellas come up to me and hey girl how's it going you know what i mean
12:46like
12:46straight up and simple but yeah strong independent woman you don't need no man but i mean if the right
12:53one comes along don't push them away well hello hello how are you where are you from leah i'm from

16:18someone especially when it's not past 10 o'clock and you're already a few beers in with uh like a

20:34interested yeah seven important ones there's loads of those more as well right okay yeah so are you

23:09black hair maybe and
23:11Somebody that's you know proud of their appearance as well. I'm one
23:15Other than that, I'm not too picky. That's that's cuttable offable, isn't it?
23:21All right, my beautiful lady
23:24Yeah, how are you?
23:25I'm Rachel Rachel, how's it going? How's it going? How are you? Good, good, good. Where are you from Rachel?
23:31Monaghan. Monaghan? Monaghan. Do you know what? No, I'm not gonna lie to you. I've probably never in my entire
23:35life stepped foot in Monaghan.
23:36Why not? Yeah, I don't know. Where are you from? Cork.
23:39Cork. Yeah, yeah, that's fair, isn't it?
23:41It's a mad accent. Just because I've never really come across anyone from Cork.
23:45Really? Go ahead. So you've never been to Cork either.
23:47No, I was in Kerry. Really? Yeah, two different counties now as well.
23:53Am I a good dude?
23:55I can talk, but no strategies whatsoever. No, I just go in and talk and talk and talk.
24:02Are you nervous? No, no, no, are you?
24:04Are you really going? Oh, my God, absolutely terrified.
24:06I would kind of overthink things as well. I'm like, all right, I have to build myself up to something.
24:10And then I come across confident, but I'm sweating. I am sweating.
24:15Have you never been on a date before, no?
24:16I have, and I've been like this all, like just, yeah, no, I'm just...
24:20It'll be all right, it'll be fine. You should have 13 minutes, but it's all right.
24:27Amazing. Thank you so, so much.
24:29You're stripling. Sorry.
24:31Why are you apologizing? Nothing to apologize for.
24:34I'm trying to get as close to her as I possibly can from across the table.
24:47I don't blame her.
25:01I was so nervous going over here because I'm embarrassed.
25:04I thought I was going to be stuck with some bloke who just doesn't say anything.
25:07Before.
25:08Excuse me. Excuse me.
25:11Or some coat with brown shoes.
25:12I was like, I put a truck on.
25:14I thought I was going to bring brown shoes.
25:16No, I didn't.
25:18You're lucky.
25:19You're lucky.
25:20What's wrong with the shoes?
25:21It's actually quite nice.
25:23My mom bought this.
25:24Did you say your mom?
25:26Oh my God, you're so from the south side.
25:28It's actually not even funny.
25:30My mom.
25:30Sorry.
25:32Okay.
25:35I like where this is going.
25:42Can I try some beef?
25:45I'll try some.
25:46There you go.
25:47Go on.
25:48Go on.
25:52Oh, this is very nice.
25:53It is nice, isn't it?
25:55I'm fairly confident that I can read people very well.
25:58My job and stuff, like, you have to be quick, be able to read guests and stuff and know
26:02when people are happy or not.
26:03But in my personal life, that can lead to overthinking about what others think of me.
26:09You have, um, you have, like, gravy or something across your mouth there.
26:14I'm so bad.
26:17Okay.
26:17Yeah, there you go.
26:18Scott.
26:19Can we talk about musical instruments?
26:21Yeah, go on.
26:23Play a small bit of piano.
26:25I play piano.
26:26Really?
26:26Yeah.
26:27Well, you trained, though.
26:29I just picked a bit.
26:29No, I'm trained in clarinet.
26:31How long have you been playing clarinet?
26:32You need to, like, play the clarinet for the first...
26:35No, the recorder first.
26:36Yeah.
26:38To learn how to finger.
26:42Because you need to make sure you're fingering the recorder correctly, you know what I mean?
26:47So do you practice fingering?
26:49Mm.
26:49Mm.
26:50Mm.
26:50To your...
26:51Professional finger.
26:52Professional finger.
26:54And after my fingering was really good, and then gave me onto the clarinet.
26:58Oh.
26:59Yeah.
27:00I'll have to take your word for it.
27:02Oh.
27:11I'm a very fussy eater.
27:12I don't eat vegetables.
27:14At all.
27:14No.
27:14That's all right.
27:15That's fine.
27:16Are you a picky?
27:17Not really.
27:18Like, the only thing that I want people to eat, I hate beans.
27:22Rotten.
27:22Absolutely rotten.
27:23Stink it.
27:24It's the texture, the taste.
27:25They're stinking.
27:26You get the parts after that.
27:27All right, okay.
27:29I like to make people laugh.
27:31That's very, very important.
27:32I think you have to make somebody laugh.
27:33You have to make somebody comfortable.
27:34It relaxes everybody as well, you know?
27:36You know, do you have any tattoos?
27:37No.
27:37Do you not?
27:38No.
27:39How do you feel about your date having loads?
27:41Yeah?
27:42You're all for tattoos.
27:42What have you got?
27:43Show me.
27:44That's a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
27:46Oh, Christ.
27:47Why?
27:47That's a Beetlejuice one.
27:48Well, because why not, like?
27:49Oh, that's my...
27:50Look, I have a daughter.
27:50That's my daughter's name.
27:52Isla is her name.
27:53She's 12.
27:55And she is probably my best friend as well, so...
27:59So you have a daughter?
28:00I have a daughter.
28:00Have you been married before?
28:01Yes.
28:02We were together for, let's say, eight years.
28:04There was no animosity when we broke up or anything,
28:06so we stayed living together for a few years to raise Isla and things,
28:10and, yeah, she's still one of my best friends.
28:12Do you think that ever intimidates people that you date?
28:15When I was a little bit younger, it was intimidating for people then.
28:19As I got older, less so.
28:22But, you know, I don't want to be with somebody that has a problem with that anyway, so...
28:26We bought, like, a big plot and end.
28:29Okay.
28:29So we kind of halved it.
28:30Yeah.
28:30So she gets one half.
28:32There's a log cabin on my half then, so, yeah.
28:35And I can tip over.
28:37Yeah, she just goes back and forth between the two then, like, yeah, yeah, it's really nice, yeah.
28:40That is actually a lovely set.
28:41Yeah, it's really cool.
28:48Did you enjoy that?
28:50Lovely.
28:50Mm-hmm.
28:51I'm having a steak for a while now.
28:52Good Irish beef.
28:54Mm.
28:55We don't take enough of what's good for us.
28:57I love cake.
28:59Do you?
29:00Let's go for Jesus Christ.
29:01You have a sweet tooth.
29:02Oh, my God.
29:03The whole side of them.
29:05I do.
29:06Oh, yeah, I look sweet.
29:06There's nothing like a good laugh.
29:08And we don't do enough that we don't experience enough of a laugh.
29:13It's so fun.
29:15That's American Miss Grammar.
29:17It's so much fun.
29:20It's amazing what makes us tick or doesn't, as the case may be, you know.
29:24And that's why I take every experience that comes my way.
29:29Does love and what you're looking for change as you get older?
29:33It gets deeper.
29:35Like, you know, when you're young, love is romantic.
29:37But it's deeper.
29:39It takes all kinds of different people, doesn't it?
29:42Absolutely.
29:43We're introverts and we're extroverts.
29:44Mm-hmm.
29:45So we have to just accept who we are.
29:48Yeah, and the more different various experiences that you have,
29:52more fulfilling, you know.
29:55Yeah.
29:56If I have any regrets in life, I regret that I wasn't, I'll say the word,
30:02more promiscuous.
30:05All the good things are illegal, immoral, or they make you fat.
30:09Isn't that the song?
30:09That's perfect. Isn't that so true?
30:12I'm definitely prudish in ways, even though I'm very open-minded.
30:17It's like the Catholic Church teaching comes up in your mind all the time.
30:21I think we're kind of slightly coming out of it, but sex is taboo, taboo, taboo.
30:26I keep saying we're a strange species, but we're all similar.
30:30Absolutely.
30:31Everyone has the same feelings, emotions, and...
30:34I love sex.
30:36Of course I do, I'm human.
30:39I love to just enjoy life.
30:41You have to.
30:41Mmm.
30:44We're romantic and physical, I would really like, definitely.
30:47I have the energy.
30:50Cheers to that song.
30:52Cheers.
30:58Ma'am, I'm in the Jacks.
31:00Who's going?
31:01Oh my God, he's so fucking cool.
31:04And like, I swear, like, five minutes in, we were already talking about marriage.
31:07He is so funny.
31:09Uh, me, where's he from?
31:11He's from, uh, Southside.
31:13So he's from, he's a Dubliner like.
31:15What the fuck is he?
31:16What?
31:18What if he not Northside?
31:19Well, it doesn't matter if he's a fucking Northside or a Southside or.
31:25So how's it going?
31:27It's going, it's going fairly well.
31:29I'm glad she's, I'm glad she's my kind of person.
31:33The same sense of humour.
31:34And she's not afraid to be herself.
31:37That's crazy.
31:37Yeah.
31:38I'd be terrified to talk to her if I saw her in the nightclub.
31:41Really?
31:41But, yeah, yeah.
31:42I don't think I'd have the balls to talk to her.
31:44Yeah, but now that I'm here, 100%.
31:47I met Matteo as well.
31:49And I said, my mam loves you.
31:52Ah!
31:56Aw, that looks so good.
31:57You won't be eating that spinach I'd say with him.
31:59Is that spinach?
32:00I've never had one in my life.
32:01Well, don't worry about it.
32:02Like, it's tasteless enough, like, it wouldn't add to your steak in any way.
32:05Have you got to drop some of this?
32:07Mm!
32:08Come on, I'll get rid of all the green bits for you.
32:10Have a little bop off of there and see what you think.
32:12Go on.
32:13You'll enjoy this.
32:14I promise.
32:15Oh!
32:19Do you not like that, though?
32:20No.
32:21That's a taste sensational.
32:22Oh, my...
32:22Do you not like that?
32:24No, go away!
32:24Right.
32:25They definitely need to be patient with me.
32:27Definitely.
32:28Because it's worth it.
32:30Like, my friends and family are just number one to me.
32:34I am a home bird.
32:36Mm-hmm.
32:36I live at home.
32:37With my pa...
32:39Pa...
32:39Pa...
32:39Parents.
32:40Right.
32:40I call them my housemates.
32:42I quite like it, but...
32:44They're always trying to set me up with people.
32:47There has been people who, like, I don't like you at all, but, like, I'll...
32:51Yeah, I'll go on another day.
32:52I'm sure it's something to be at.
32:55That's awful.
32:56Is that awful?
32:57People are like, why don't you just move out?
32:59I was like, what am I gonna move out to a house on my own?
33:02Mm-hmm.
33:02Because I know I get on with my parents so, so well.
33:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:05You do want a bit of privacy, as well, sometimes.
33:07Yeah.
33:08But, like, I was spoiled at home.
33:09Yeah, but that's okay.
33:12The first time I kissed a fella, and then he turned around, and he was like, oh, like,
33:16I'm not gay.
33:17That was a mistake.
33:18And, like, that really upset me.
33:21Would you say you've been in love before?
33:23The romantic kind now.
33:24But, I mean, I'm still, like, really young, so I'm not kind of worried about that.
33:30Are you here?
33:32Oh, am I being fed off?
33:33Yeah.
33:34Oh, come on.
33:36That's good, isn't it?
33:38If someone's interested in me, I'm completely blind to that.
33:41Like, I haven't a clue.
33:42If we're having a good conversation, I'm completely lost in the conversation.
33:46Let me just glance my phone.
33:47Oh, yeah, sorry.
33:48Try your professional.
33:51Getting hints of top.
33:53During a date, I don't think someone will know if I don't like them or not.
33:57I think I can be quite talkative and kind of give off the impression that I am very attracted or
34:02into someone.
34:03That's for you to do it.
34:05If I was going to reject someone, I think I'd be fine.
34:10But if I was going to get rejected, I think that's kind of where, like, you're kind of, like, vulnerable.
34:17Now, are we happy to settle up?
34:19Yeah.
34:20Yes, please.
34:21No, we split it.
34:23I can pay for it.
34:24I don't mind.
34:26No, we split it.
34:27Being rejected or rejecting someone is completely natural as long as you do it in a respectful way.
34:32OK, go on.
34:33I'm going to split it, please.
34:35Like, if they're not your person, absolutely fine.
34:38They're not your person.
34:45So, would you like to see each other again romantically?
34:48Who goes?
34:49You go first.
34:50First.
34:52I would really like to see Ian again.
34:54Yeah, I would like to see him again as well.
34:58I thought you were going to say no.
35:00Really?
35:00I thought you were going to say no.
35:02Because when I offered to pay the bill, you were like, no, no, no, we'll split it.
35:04And I was like, oh, OK, I see.
35:06OK, right.
35:08If you really wanted to, you could be like, no, like, I'm paying.
35:11And I'd be like, how many times did I offer to pay?
35:13Twice.
35:14Only twice.
35:15Two times a time.
35:16OK.
35:17Thank you, though.
35:18No worries.
35:18That was lovely.
35:21That was a relief.
35:23Oh, yeah, you are tall.
35:26So, you guys fancy each other?
35:27Yeah, I think I was safe to say.
35:29Him, obviously, like, more than me.
35:31Right, right, right.
35:33Thank you very much.
35:34Bye.
35:35Bye.
35:36He's really nice.
35:37He's really chatty.
35:38He's nice.
35:41He was really attractive, both personality-wise and physically.
35:48Like, everything just seems to be pretty good, you know?
35:54Ow, my head.
35:57That really hurt.
35:59That really hurt.
36:01That really hurt.
36:25Like a little rage.
36:26Like a little rage, yeah.
36:27Balls Cotter, they call me.
36:29The most important thing is to be myself.
36:32If you're not yourself on the first date and you turn out to be somebody totally different,
36:36that's very, very bad.
36:38So, tell me, what are, how are you finding dating and stuff?
36:42I don't do it.
36:44At all?
36:44No, at all?
36:44I'm actually quite reclusive.
36:46Oh, okay.
36:47Like, I've met the odd person, but I just am not good with small, like, I don't, I can't be
36:52honest with the shite.
36:53Yeah.
36:53I think it's a lot to do with Covid as well.
36:56I turned very strange after Covid.
36:58Like, I, but you know, you're locked up for, like, two or three years, so I think you're going to
37:02be a wee bit odd.
37:04Out of practice, maybe.
37:05We'll say out of practice.
37:07Had a boyfriend.
37:09Whenever we broke up, I was like, Jesus, I don't even know who I am.
37:13It's not easy, especially if you're together with somebody for so long, right?
37:16Everybody else has moved on.
37:17People are having children and getting married and stuff.
37:20My last relationship, I was definitely quite dependent on them, so I worked on myself a long time to get
37:26that independence back.
37:28So I think that's why my walls are up.
37:30But I want them to come down. Like, I want to be a wee bit softer.
37:34People are like, oh, how are you single? You're great, crack, blah, blah, blah.
37:37And beautiful as well.
37:39Like, let's go on. Sorry.
37:42Like, I have been in love before, so I know that side of me is there, but it's just wrapped
37:47in concrete.
37:50I actually wouldn't usually be a dinner and drinks man.
37:53No, I'm never on.
37:54I'm not a huge fan of that man.
37:55I think that's why I was so nervous.
37:57Because, like, I don't, like, obviously I'm weird with food.
38:00Ah, you're not.
38:02Don't be worried about that, people don't give a shit about that.
38:11Oh, look what I got.
38:12There's the heart.
38:14Will we share?
38:15Absolutely.
38:15You have to, haven't you?
38:17Don't go breaking my heart.
38:19Don't go breaking my heart.
38:20Don't go breaking my heart.
38:27Don't go breaking my heart.
38:34Don't go breaking my heart.
38:35He's a lovely man.
38:36And I think he was interested in some of the things I was interested in.
38:40Lot of things that I know most males aren't interested in, I said, oh, I like that.
39:04Don't go breaking my heart.
39:05So what you do, do you want to go halves and that?
39:08Yeah, I know, yeah, please.
39:11the whole thing for me was a bit it's gone half it's just my generation men paid because women
39:18didn't have money now I know women do have money if he didn't even offer can we split it
39:24it shows a lot about his character to me lovely would you like to see each other romantically
39:32again I wouldn't particularly I wouldn't jump at it I'm not a date date but a coffee date or
39:42something let's call it no no no problem but yeah yeah I agree I totally agree thank you both so
39:52much for coming it's been lovely thank you we all enjoy new experiences why we're afraid of them
