The idea of a blind date sounds exciting, but nobody really knows what they’re getting themselves into. It can go rather well or horribly wrong.
Let’s tell you a short story. One you probably know too well.
1. You are on your lane when your friends decide to set you up on a date

You people don’t have work abi?
2. At first you are like

No thanks.
3. But they are relentless, so you give in

Ugh. Let me live.
4. Then you were even like what’s the worst that could happen?

There’s nothing new under the sun.
5. You and your date agree on a day, location and time

This is definitely not off to a great start.
7. You, after a waiter comes to take your order for the third time but your date hasn’t arrived

Have I been stood up? God please.
8. When they eventually arrive and they look nothing like the picture you saw

What’s all this?

Oh, my God. Take it easy na.

Say something. Say something.
11. When you finally start talking and all they talk about is themselves

Ha. Ha. Ha. Let’s end this please.
13. And they bring their ex into the conversation for no reason

This is not the worst I planned for, abeg.
15. When you’re leaving and you bump into your ex on the way out
I should have stayed in my house.
