Jenny on Sara
What were you hoping for?
A new adventure with someone fun and like-minded.
First impressions?
Gorgeous and easy to talk to.
What did you talk about?
Travel, art, hobbies, and the latest Married at First Sight—the next series needs a better-matched lesbian couple.
Most awkward moment?
Trying to take a selfie and both of us cringing.
Good table manners?
Sara passed the ultimate test—discreetly getting rid of olive stones without it being off-putting.
Best thing about Sara?
I was very impressed by her intelligence, and she was great at holding a conversation.
Would you introduce Sara to your friends?
Definitely. Sara is likable and kind—it’d be hard not to get along with her.
Describe Sara in three words:
Bright, interesting, and gorgeous.
What do you think Sara made of you?
I think Sara thought I was fun and a little chaotic. She laughed when I said my top two love languages are gift-giving and acts of service.
Did you go on somewhere?
Yes, to a queer clubhouse and then Dalston Superstore, where we danced till 2 a.m.
And… did you kiss?
Yes! I really appreciated that the date was in a lesbian bar, so I could enjoy kissing Sara without any fear.
If you could change one thing about the evening, what would it be?
I think we should have eaten more!
Marks out of 10?
10.
Would you meet again?
If we lived in the same city, I could see Sara having a big presence in my life, but we both agreed long-distance relationships are tough. I’d always be happy to see her if she visits Leeds.

Loves Robbie Williams. Blind date: ‘I worried she might not show up after our awkward accidental meeting.’ Read more. What did Jenny think of you?
Well, she said I was a 10, but that was after quite a few glasses of wine. Did you go somewhere else afterward?
It would have been rude not to. And… did you kiss?
We couldn’t disappoint the bartenders. If you could change one thing about the evening, what would it be?
To have gone somewhere with food! Rating out of 10?
We agreed on a 9. Looking back, there’s no reason not to give Jenny a perfect 10. Would you meet again?
