Channel Seven’s First Dates is certainly an interesting way to spend an evening getting to know someone – and for most contestants, is going to be unlike any other date they’re experienced.
But for 27-year-old Chelsea, who sat down for a date with Mick during Tuesday night’s episode, the experience was all the more unfamiliar.
You see this wasn’t just Chelsea’s first date on TV – this was Chelsea’s first date ever.
Listen: Cam the First Dates bartender spills all the beans. Post continues after audio.
“It’s a huge day. I’ve never been on a date. I grew up in country Victoria, dates sort of aren’t the norm. It’s a nice place. It’s lonely,” Chelsea told the camera before her date.
“I am so nervous about this date, it makes my heart beat. I want to find that perfect guy that gives me tingles. It’d just be nice not to be alone.”
Relatable, no?
It was 32-year-old Mick from the UK who had the weight of expectations falling on his shoulders on Tuesday – and thankfully, he was up to the task.
