Blind dates might seem to be a thing of the past, but they do still happen – especially in cultures where arranged marriages are still common. In this article, we’ll look at a hypothetical example of a blind date conversation in English:
John: Hi, you must be Sarah, right?
Sarah: Yes, hi John. It’s nice to meet you finally.
John: Yes, it is. I’m sorry I’m a bit late. Traffic was really bad on the highway.
Sarah: Don’t worry about it. It’s not a big deal.
John: So, Sarah, what do you do for a living?
Sarah: I work as a teacher at a high school. What about you, John?
John: I’m a software engineer. My job mostly involves coding.
Sarah: That sounds interesting. Do you like it?
John: Yes, I do. It’s challenging, but I enjoy solving problems.
Waiter: Good evening. Can I get you something to drink?
John: Yes, I’ll have a glass of red wine, please.
Sarah: I’ll have a glass of white wine, please. And we’re ready to order our food as well.
Waiter: Sure, what would you like to order?
John: I’ll have the grilled salmon, please.
Sarah: I’ll have the vegetarian pasta, please.
John: So, Sarah, tell me a bit more about yourself. What do you like to do for fun?
Sarah: Well, I really enjoy reading and watching movies. I also like to travel and explore new places.
John: That’s great. What’s the best place you’ve ever travelled to?
Sarah: I went to Japan last year and it was amazing. The culture is so different from what we’re used to here.
John: I really enjoyed meeting you, Sarah. Would you like to do this again sometime?
Sarah: I had a great time too, John. Sure, I’d love to.
John: Great. I’ll call you next week to arrange something.
Sarah: Sounds good. Bye!
John: Bye!
And so, the blind date ended on a positive note. Whether or not they’ll hit it off in the long run is anybody’s guess, but at least they got to know each other a bit better over dinner and drinks. Who knows – maybe the relationship will develop into something more meaningful in the future!
