Jordan on Jack
What were you hoping for?
Someone I would have easy chemistry with. If I fancied them, that would be a bonus.
First impressions?
Sweet, mild-mannered. He had lovely teeth but I was alarmed by his skinny jeans.
What did you talk about?
Everything you probably shouldn’t when you first meet someone: sex, monogamy, money.
Any awkward moments?
I don’t think so.
Good table manners?
Impeccable. The same can’t be said of mine.
Best thing about Jack?
His encyclopedic knowledge of all things pop.
Would you introduce him to your friends?
I can’t see him on a night out with them.
Describe Jack in three words
Polite, kind-hearted, innocent.
What do you think he made of you?
I hope he wasn’t genuinely offended when I mocked him for his choice of cocktail (a cosmopolitan).
Did you go on somewhere?
The pub round the corner.
And... did you kiss?
On the cheek as he left.
If you could change one thing about the evening, what would it be?
That we didn’t drink an entire bottle of wine before the starter arrived.
Marks out of 10?
A solid 7.
Would you meet again?
He lives outside London, so it’s unlikely. If I saw him around I would say hi.
