One of the factors that most attracts the First Dates audience is that the participants represent realities that may well resemble any of one’s everyday situations. In the last era, It is increasingly fashionable to wear hair among people who suffer from alopecia, which gave special interest to the meeting between Rodrigo and Hande.
He, Argentine, although living in Spain for five years, was passionate about dance and theater. And, to no one’s surprise at this point in the story, he had no hair on his head. She, a resident of Vigo and of Turkish origin, arrived admitting her difficulties with Spanish. A fact which, in the end, was not relevant, since the two insisted on speaking the language of love.
Ironic to say the least was the first compliment that Rodrigo gave to Hande, even though it was in front of the cameras. This could be my girl, he said, justifying that she had very pretty hair. The same one that he was missing, the single woman must have thought. Physically I don’t have a prototype, she stressed, to which he jokingly replied: With a lot of hair.
Hande picked up the gauntlet, insisting that everything had a solution: If you want we can go to Turkey. I can arrange a place for you. Without hair you’re fine, but if you want to go I know some people…, I snapped. Rodrigo, who couldn’t stop laughing, neither accepted nor rejected the offer.
Otherwise, the rest of the date went smoothly. They were both programmers by profession and had common curiosities, such as a taste for music. The harmony was so great that Rodrigo did not hesitate to pay the bill. I invite the first one, we’ll see about the rest, he warned him. Who knows if the second will be in a kebab in Istanbul.
