🚨 DATE LAB SUCCESS 🚨
Willie Gray is 56 and a financial analyst. He’s looking for a woman who is “ride or die.” Renee Coley is a 53-year-old engineer. She’s seeking someone who loves to travel and is “adventurous ... honest, open-minded, health-conscious.” By Marin Cogan Marin Cogan Bio Follow April 4 at 6:00 AM When we told Willie Gray and Renee Coley that we were setting them up for a blind date on Valentine's Day, the two of them felt the same thing: pressure.
She showed up to Compass Rose — a restaurant off 14th Street NW featuring international shared plates — 15 minutes early so she could compose herself, text her girlfriends and get the first look at the man she’d be spending the evening with. Compass Rose’s theme for dinner was “A Night in Tokyo — Get Lost in Translation.” Over sparkling rosé and seasonal sashimi, the two got to know each other. “Renee mentioned that she’s a foodie,” Willie said, “and I brought up that I liked to cook.” Willie wondered if he could replicate the food they were eating at the restaurant at home. “We’d talk about the seasonings and everything. ... I like that he’s open to trying new things,” Renee said.

On a first date, the trail to true love doesn’t run smoothlyEven as I first swiped right on him on Tinder I thought, this can’t be real…but what if? I’m talking abs you could bounce quarters off for days. (On the flip side, he used the phrase “swoll-mate” in his profile. Really?!) But even still, I wasn’t looking to marry him, just have a good time.
