Maria Teresa of Calcutta said that for love to be true it must cost us, it must hurt us and “it must empty us of ourselves.” According to the Catholic nun, the path to falling in love is full of difficulties, which is why some pursue it throughout their lives without success.
To facilitate this task and find like-minded people with whom you can connect and see if there is any type of romantic chemistry, we have in our country a program presented by Carlos Sobera: First Dates. Every day, dozens of singles come to the space in search of their better half or someone to connect with on a more intimate level. This is the case of Rosa, a woman who attended the program with her niece.
The 53-year-old single woman came to First Dates looking for a man who provides her with stability and helps her have a better social life, as her niece confessed. For her from Jerez de la Frontera, the most important thing is her two children, whom she adores with all her heart.
To accompany her during the evening, the program chose Ángel, a man who has traveled all over the world and who now lives in Rota seeks to share life with a daring woman. ”When I was young I was quite ambitious, I was going to take on the world and in the end, I was left alone,” he explained in the Mediaset España program.
As soon as they met, they both talked about their daily lives, a moment that the bachelor took advantage of to tell his date that he had worked in the American army and that he now has a small job at the Rota military base. When she confessed that she worked in several residences and in domestic service, he gave her opinion and explained that she would like to serve her partner: ”With me the woman doesn’t have to work. Let the woman dedicate herself to what she wants, to paint, if she likes animals… I support her. If she wants to work, there is no need…”
Although they realized that they have things in common, the conversation showed that Rosa is a woman who enjoys the little things more and that Ángel was looking for a travel companion with whom to travel the world and live ‘bigger’ experiences.
If the date was characterized by anything, it was the calm, politeness and know-how of the two protagonists. During the evening they had time to talk and listen to each other, as well as show their interests, hopes and expectations.
Despite the good impressions of both, they both agreed that they had not felt the necessary spark to try something else. However, they thanked each other for the pleasant time chatting and said goodbye happily.
