THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN dating in Dublin and elsewhere are plain to see.
1. Finding someone you have no connection with is virtually impossible
Oh, you know my cousin James’ ex girlfriend’s brother’s mother’s sister? Of course you dooooo.
2. As is avoiding them if things go south
Dublin is a SMALL place and they are now forever in your sights.
3. Sometimes, the trouble is actually leaving at all
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
4. Tinder has basically taken over
If you’re not on it, your dating prospects are limited.
5. Which makes things even less romantic
6. In fact, dates are rarely even a thing
We go seeing each other casually aka ‘hanging out’ > in a relationship. Are dates a thing when you’re in a relationship? At not one point is anyone asked out or is an official date set.
NOBODY KNOWS, LOVE.
7. It’s tough to find something to do that isn’t booze or food related
So… crazy golf again?
8. Alcohol facilitates most social interactions
The sad truth, but you’re probably gonna have to wait until the third pint before you start getting flirty.
9. The cost of having a nice date is two months pay
… and that’s only the drinks.
10. Compliments are tough to come by
In fact, the person likely has no interest in you if they keep complimenting you.
11. The county you’re from can make or break you when it comes to the All Ireland
WHY. WHY DOES IT MEAN SO MUCH?
