Love at first kiss?

"Sounds interesting,"my mom and I thought as the title popped up on the TV. It is a new show on TLC. A little background about it is people go on the show in hopes of finding a soulmate. The twist to the show is that it's not just like "The Bachelor" or speed dating. It is complete strangers meeting in an all white room. They didn’t sit there and talk, instead all they did was kiss.

The producers wanted to see if people could match up on just a kiss. This definitely has been one of the most interesting shows I have watched next to "Married at First Sight."

My mother and I happened to have watched the very first episode. The order in which the show went was they would get set up in this room, they would kiss, then they would have to decide if they wanted to go on a two minute speed date in a different room. Not everyone decided they wanted to go on the two minute speed date with the other person depending on how the kiss came out.

The best had to be the guy who had never kissed anyone before. He seemed to really want to do this and find someone for him. The first time he ever kissed a girl was on television. The best part about the show is you see the whole entire kiss. It is true this guy really did not know to kiss at all. My mom and I felt terrible for this guy because he had to get lessons from a professional kisser. I guess third times the charm because he finally found a girl who thought he was amazing and wanted to continue dating. It did show that people can find chemistry through kissing.

The worst part of the show was the girl who wouldn’t kiss any of the guys they had chosen for her. She had a long extensive list of the things that she was looking for in a guy. They had given her pretty cute guys by my standards. I don’t understand why they kept letting her try again if she wouldn’t even kiss them. It almost made me mad to see that.

Quote from my mother: “She’s going to be alone if she keeps this up.” The girl gave a poor image of herself. No one would want to date her after seeing this.

Now I have been on dates with strangers but I would never think about walking into a room and just kiss someone I am seeing for the first time. It took a lot of courage for these people to come on the show and stand in that room. They also had to brave enough to know that other people were going to see their tragic kiss or beautiful love story. I don’t believe I could ever have the courage to kiss a complete and totally stranger.

I would say the show definitely gave you some laughs, and "aww!" moments. I would recommend it something to watch if you are into shows about finding true love in some interesting ways.
