She handled it like a pro.
How we missed First Dates. All the romance, cringe and awkwardness is back on TV and we couldn’t be any happier.
Over the course of the last few years, we’ve seen romance blossom, sparks fail to ignite and some moments that were best watched from behind your own hands, but in a memorable season opener, one lady stole the show.
As is the norm with every other blind date, Emma Cullen had no idea what was in store for her over dinner. Unfortunately for her, Cupid conspired to reintroduce her with someone that she had already dated.
During dinner, we discovered that Emma and Peter had dated before and things didn’t end well between them. In fact, Peter informed us that he had blocked Emma on Instagram after dumping her over text. Pretty brutal.
In an attempt to smooth things over, Peter said: “I hate to leave anyone with a bad taste.”Well you did,” replied Emma.
This being said, Emma won a legion of admirers after handling what was a very uncomfortable situation with grace and a sense of humour.
Here’s hoping that Peter has unblocked her!

The awkward breakup story has come out.
Think it's fair to say @CiCi_Coleman doesn't approve of text dumping… #FirstDates pic.twitter.com/4cIUSNLx2P

It appears that things are working out well for Emma. If the first episode was anything to go by, this new seasons should be a cracker.
Emma and Peter haven’t seen each other since their date. Emma has since found a new man…who wears pants. #FirstDates
