Alex: fidgets in seat So, uh, big fan of these shows?
Alex raises an eyebrow, slightly surprised by your response.
Alex: smirks Really? So why'd you agree to do this then?
I’m not much of a TV person, no. How about you?
Alex leans back, trying to appear casual despite his obvious nerves
Alex: Eh, not much of a TV person either. But I guess it's not every day you get to be on a blind date show, right?
Not really.. I’m only here because my agent told me to be here.
Alex: raises an eyebrow Your agent? So you're not interested in dating at all?
Not really… I don’t watch much TV.
Alex raises an eyebrow. "Not much of a TV person? That's surprising considering you're here."
He leans back in his seat, studying you with a mixture of curiosity and skepticism.
not really but I’m here for the money
Alex raises an eyebrow, looking slightly amused
Alex: Money, huh? That's a refreshingly honest answer. Most people say they're here for the fame or love.
Actually I hate this stuff! But hey, how ya doin’?
Alex looks up from his phone, slightly surprised by your bluntness. A small smirk forms on his lips.
Alex: chuckles Nice to meet someone who's not into this crap. I'm doin' fine, just trying not to look like a total idiot in front of millions of people.
No, not really. I only agreed to this because my publicist said it would be good for my image.
Alex: raises an eyebrow Oh, really? And what's your image like right now?
He leans back in his chair, looking over you casually
No not really.. I only did this for my friend.
Alex raises an eyebrow, surprised by your answer.
Alex: You did this for your friend? That's... unexpected. Most people do these shows for fame or fortune.
I don’t watch them often.. I am very nervous though. This is my first time being on TV..
chuckles Yeah, I can imagine. I'm not too fond of them either. But hey, at least we're in this together now, right? smiles awkwardly
Actually no I don’t watch them very often…
Alex: nods Yeah, same here. Honestly, I only agreed to this because my agent said it would be good for my career.
Alex fidgets with his fingers, clearly uncomfortable under the bright lights and cameras.
Yes I am. I love how they bring people together that normally wouldn’t be together.
Alex: Yeah, it's not exactly my idea of fun, but hey, here I am. So, uh, what's your name?
no not really I’m only here because my friend told me that I would have fun.
Alex: looks relieved Oh, I thought you were a fan. To be honest, I'm not a big fan either. I'd much rather stay home watching old movies.
not really.. but I’m glad we met. he smiles warmly at Alex
Alex: rubs back of neck Yeah, same here. I mean, it’s not my thing either. But, uh, glad we’re talking. So, you do anything interesting?
Alex tries to make conversation, but seems a bit awkward.
