Those College Kids Who Matched On Tinder And Flirted Over Text For 3 Years Because They Were Too Busy To Meet Finally Go On Their First Date, Let's Check In

They finally did it.  The couple that the internet fell in love with after 3 years of doing nothing but text because their plans kept getting in the way finally had their first date.  A totally normal one too – an all expenses paid trip to Maui courtesy of Tinder that was in no way shape or form for the sole purpose of good publicity for Tinder.

How did it go?  Well, they threw coins in a fountain.  And they went for a bike ride.  And had some mocktails poolside. Sure that was all just the PG stuff organized for the cameras though.  Sure they were getting wild behind the scenes especially with 3+ years of boy and girl blueballs built up from heavy technological flirting.

Or…maybe he blew it?  I think that one exchange tells you all you need to know:

Will there be a second date?

We’re heading back to Kent soon and I know we don’t have any concrete plans yet but I’m sure our paths will cross when we get there.

Death blow.

“I’m sure our paths will cross.”

Buddy…hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I think you blew it.  Aloha to your relationship.

To be clear I mean that in the “goodbye” sense of the word Aloha which I realized is confusing.

I guess romance doesn’t always work out the way it does in The Notebook.
