Video about the blind date of Nina and Richard I will try to resume funny history of the video. First, Richard had to wait a lot of time because Nina was late. She said it was because the heavy traffic, she couldn't find a cab and others things Richard could imagine (in this point I've learned a new exmpression "You name it"). Anyway Richard said "No problem, I just got here". In her comments after the date, Nina said she admited she hold on traditional values, and the litle things like Richard pulled out the chair and gave her fowers were really nice and made her feel special. OOk, let's back to the date scene: Nina could sit and asked "What would you like to order?". So Richard said that he had already ordered something to her. Well, it was visible in Nina's face that she were really surprised and not comfortble with the situation. In his comments after date, Richard said that women are impossible. He was "angry" because she liked the flowers but insituated the he shouldn't have ordered for her. (Sorry again, I used the word "angry" , but is more like he disagree about the situation).

Notice that in the following paragraph when we add the word "when" it changes the form of the word pulling to pulled and giving becomes gave. An exmple is shown below

 

In her comments after the date, Nina said she admitted she believed in traditional values, and the little things like when Richard pulled out her chair and when he gave her flowers was really nice and made her feel special.

 

However if we remove the word "when" then the paragraph goes back to its original state as follows

 

In her comments after the date, Nina said she admitted she believed in traditional values, and the little things like Richard pulling out her chair and giving her flowers were really nice and made her feel special.

A Video About The Blind Date Of Nina And Richard

 

am going to resume give a funny commentary about the video. First, Richard had to wait a long  time because Nina was late. She said it was because of the heavy traffic, she couldn't find a cab amongst other things Richard could not imagine. Anyway Richard said "No problem, I just got here".

In her comments after the date, Nina said she admited she belived in traditional values, and the little things like Richard pulling out her chair and giving her flowers were really nice and made her feel special. 

Ok, let's go back to the date scene: Nina sat down and asked "What would you like to order?" (A more common phrase to use in this context  would be "What do you recommend? or What do you think I should try?"). So Richard said that he had already ordered something for her. Well, it was obvious by the look of Nina's face that she was really surprised and not comfortable with the situation.

In his comments after the date, Richard said that women are impossible. He was "confused" because she liked the flowers but insisted the he shouldn't have ordered for her.
