A question for the guys


I was wondering which girl the guys would like to see on a second date, not based purely on looks?

reply

Ellie is probably the best of the bunch (so far). I am around the same age as David, so I can see why dating her may feel a bit weird, because she is ridiculously young-looking (particularly as the actress is apparently 24), so it would be kind of like being out with gaolbait. But, she is intelligent under the trendy, with-it exterior, and showed some sensitivity too, so could probably develop into a fine rounded companion.

I can certainly see why the smokey sexuality of Mia might draw a guy in, but she is incredibly self-obsessed, and although this may be hiding an underlying true lack of confidence, would be very hard to love unless she could let you in a little bit more emotionally rather than just sexually.

Obviously not Jenny, because although she is sweet and and the kind of person you feel would give as well as take in a relationship, she might also nick something important of yours if you upset her.

Not Erica either, because she is only dating men for her family, and it wouldn't feel right to go out with someone who is never comfortable.

So yeah, Ellie then.

She would be my choice too

Probably mine too, she has a maturity despite her age and she seems level headed and at times selfless the way she lines him up with Mia again despite that being against what she personally wanted from the date.

I actually saw a girl like Erica for around a year, a pretty asian albeit not lesbian or bi, she was straight but her family wanted her to settle down with another asian guy, for the whole relationship I never met her parents as they were not open to her seeing a British white guy. Her brother and sisters wanted to meet me to gauge my level of character and cast their views on things.
It was pretty tough and inevitably ended largely due to this pressure.

Definitely not Mia. A woman like that is more hassle than she's worth.

Mia is a pain in the ass

Mia was off the charts smug. Oona Chaplin is as usual affected, obviously "acting" and working her angles. So doesn't help a character like Mia who fronts and fakes and works her angles by only making "hidden complexities" obvious. No surprises at all.
