Last night, we saw the return of First Dates Ireland, now on its second season. The dates were a very mixed bag of sweet and funny with almost all of the couples featured agreeing on a second date. Viewers, like always, took to Twitter to discuss the episode, and while a lot was happening, we can basically divide it into four parts. People were very excited for the return. https://twitter.com/RuthEgan4/status/822209807918727169 https://twitter.com/reglooby/status/822209876470415360 https://twitter.com/Jen_Srl/status/822210575631609856 https://twitter.com/JustineStafford/status/822195550187585537 https://twitter.com/Dan0Brien/status/822223615613685761 Everyone fell in love with one particular couple. Paddy and Lauren were on their first ever dates and instantly had each other laughing. Lauren opened up to her date about having cystic fibrosis and the loss of her sister. The ups and downs of the date had viewers in love with the youngsters. https://twitter.com/RuthMcDonagh/status/822196007240876032 https://twitter.com/katyaatkinson/status/822227728267100160 https://twitter.com/KaylaHiggins98/status/822225700191080454 https://twitter.com/LeanneLynch26/status/822200880288190464 When the moment of truth came, about seeing each other again, they thankfully both said yes. However, Lauren ended up back in hospital after the show and we were informed that they were still planning a second date. Phew. This update from RTÉ2 made a lot of people smile. https://twitter.com/RTE2/status/822209065556340736 People were not impressed with one man making his date go first even though he knew he wasn't interested. https://twitter.com/RoRoSuperRo/status/822208448964259845 https://twitter.com/tomflynnphoto/status/822208360665772032 https://twitter.com/cherlookit/status/822208523690004480 https://twitter.com/putlock/status/822209583875846146 Dating is difficult.  https://twitter.com/nbrez/status/822201524189298688 https://twitter.com/putlock/status/822201988372983810 https://twitter.com/Orlamo/status/822196065562664960 Especially because of moments like this... https://twitter.com/RTE2fm/status/822214504821956612 We're already looking forward to next week.
