Skirt Day (Rokjesdag)

The romantic ideal of love is that it takes you by surprise.

That you don't have to do anything for it.

But that's nonsense, statistically speaking.

All that time I was waiting for it.

But if you want to find love, you have to go look for it.

I can help you with that. I'm organizing speed dating cooking classes.

Sign up in time because the flirting season starts on Skirt Day.

Who will wake up next to whom tomorrow?

Skirt Day

Hi, are you Walter? - Hi, Marijke.

Am I very late? - Oh, well.

Here we are then. It's crazy at the office with this mega-deal I need to close.

Have you been waiting for a long time? I'm so embarrassed.

You really resemble your profile picture. - Who doesn't?

Most guys don't. You're an exception. - Right. So, you do this often?

Of course not. Not that often.

Thanks a lot.

Can I get a piece?

More women than men again. - It always works out.

There are hardly any men this time. - Don't worry.

Everyone breaks up in the summer, and then they come here to make tapas.

Anew chance for children adopt a child from Asia

Oh dear, how terrible. Did I hit you?

No, but you almost did. - Fortunately.

Can I make it up to you? - No, I'm in a hurry.

I'm sorry, it fell. Could you bring it up?

Hey, you. Stop, that's mine.

Good.

Edwin, come on. You need to go to the butterflies.

Is this really necessary?

Those big girls can't do without me.

I'm sorry.

I was working in Boston, banking and finance.

We had this conference call with a French company.

I could understand everything they said.

You're in real estate, right? - Sales.

What do you sell? - Ceiling modules.

How interesting.

So, you were in Marrakesh too?

I was there with my best friend Danielle, in a wonderful hotel. it was fabulous.

If I had been there with a man, we wouldn't have left the hotel room.

I have to go. My parking ticket is about to expire.

How long did you pay for? - Enough. Twenty minutes.

Twenty minutes, because... - Because by then you know enough.

What exactly? -If you're going to hit it off.

But I don't think we will.

It's not as if I like you either. - All right, great.

This is not how we're going to do this. We're going to have a real conversation.

We'll show an interest...

and ask questions about our passions, ambitions and summer plans.

And if we hit it off, because we might, you'll ask me to have dinner...

and I'll say yes, because I've kept the evening free, just in case.

If there are insurmountable differences, we'll each go our separate ways.

That's how it should be done, so that's how we'll do it.

You're right, I apologize.

When does your parking ticket expire? - I came by bike.

From the best cake shop in town.

My dear Chantal, we're not blind. - We can't be, in this profession.

We've all noticed what it is you want. And so...

Go ahead and unpack it.

You're going on a romantic dinner, and we're paying.

If you hit it off, you'll have to name the love child after me.

I'm sorry, but this doesn't work. I really like you, but not this way.

Not like this.

Anyone want a coffee?

What's going on? - I don't know.

Tapas cooking workshop for singles

When will people stop trying to pair me off?

I want it to be spontaneous. Love is something that needs to happen to you.

Here's my present. A cooking course, because you enjoy cooking so much.

I love tapas.

Here's a piece of cheese, Jenny. You don't like that.

Here's a piece of meat. Isn't that nice?

Want another piece?

It's really nice. - Yes, it's lovely.

My dog. Can anyone help me? Does anyone have a phone?

He just collapsed.

Do you know about dogs? - Yes, I do.

Is it working? - One, two, three...

Do you feel anything? - His heart is beating.

Look at that. - Thank you.

I'd go to a vet if I were you. - I will.

I've lost my appetite.

Are you dumping me?

You can't, because I'm dumping you. - Fine.

Right. Goodbye then. - Bye.

I hope you'll be very happy together.

We already are. - Here you go.

Get back in the saddle right away. Bye.

Two pairs, aces.

Royal flush.

You can't be serious. - I am. Take all of it off.

You win.

Turn around.

There. Come along.

Are we going to dance?

That's not funny. Come on, Paulien. -It's time to make a choice, Bor.

Honey, that takes time. -It's all or nothing.

There are people coming. Hurry.

Hi there.

Open up. - I'm done sharing you.

Put it on there.

Done.

Not funny.

What are you doing?

I need to tell you something.

You're going to be a father.

And I'm going to be a mother.

This is our baby. Finally.

She looks just as I imagined her in my dreams. Look at that cute, little face.

Yes, she has a slight deformity.

Do we get a discount? -It's a child, not a couch.

We don't want a lame child, right? - Sure we do.

Children with special needs need lots of love, and we can give it.

Let's wait for a normal one. - That takes way too long.

We could go get her this month. - What?

Look at this tiny doll's house. With a tiny, little kitchen.

Isn't it cute? A tiny, little table and this little wok.

Isn't it sweet?

This is going a bit too fast for me. - Oh, honey.

You're ready for this. You really are.

I am, but how about you? - What do you mean?

Let's wait until you're a bit more stable. - I am stable.

Until your hormone levels have gone down again. You're a bad example.

I really think I'm going to be areal good mother.

And you'll be a great dad. Oh, baby.

Twenty minutes? That fast? -It's a new record.

I hadn't even finished my glass.

You verbally castrate men with all those stories about your career.

He asked me about it. My visits to the dentist take longer than my dates.

Flight. At least he's filling a hole.

I can't tell you how much I need a check-up.

Want an omelette too? - I'm going to have my eggs frozen.

I think I'll pass on that omelette. - Maybe I should buy a cat.

So you've given up all hope. - I've tried everything.

Internet dating, speed dating, horrible mobile apps. Not even one decent guy.

Tomorrow evening, making tapas for singles.

Sounds like something for losers. - A nice evening with nice food...

nice cocktails and lots of single men. I've signed you up as well.

No way. - Way.

Hello, gentlemen. Had a nice work-out?

What do you teach? - I do pole fitness. And you?

I'm guessing you're doing weight training. Let me feel that.

Two protein shakes, please. - Coming right up.

How about you? Do you also do pole fitness?

You're just talking to me because you want to get to know her better.

You should change tactics.

Put the stools on the bar.

Wow. Hi, there.

Divorced.

That's a big guy.

Take that shirt off.

One, two, three.

Hey, what...

Hi. - Would you like to go somewhere else?

Well, you don't beat around the bush. Where do you vvant me to go?

Somewhere other than our goal.

Are you in a hurry? - No, I'm going on a course.

I like to go hunting in the park. That's where the ladies are off-guard.

Sorry, 9W5-

Edward. - Edwin.

Today we're putting things into practice.

Hello. - Hi.

Think about what I taught you: compliment, introduction, action. Go.

Jesus, a flower?

Do you try to bore her to sleep and then snuggle up to her with your hard-on?

Tell her she looks cute.

You're cute. - Thanks.

Sit down.

Look out. - What is this?

Oh, shit. - That's okay.

Go on, make it erotic. Keep going.

That's really stupid of me. I'll get you a new one.

Don't worry, I have more stuff. - I'm sorry.

Would you like a piece of toast? - Gladly.

Tell her you'd like a piece of her.

Exciting, isn't it? - All right, get that chemistry going.

Do you like grass too? I'm sorry.

Do you come here often? - I do.

Where's your Stetson? - Excuse me?

I thought you would wear a cowboy hat.

Girlnextdoor1987. Ionesomeflovvboy?

Who's that? - Abort mission. Return to base camp.

Rejection is painful, but the pain is temporary.

Chronic blue balls really hurt.

What's the worst thing about turning 30? - Physical decay has started.

Hangovers last longer. - You get called up for a Pap smear.

I'm sorry, Madame, this may feel a little cold.

Iris. - Yes?

Dear Iris, the first time I saw you, in that swing ride...

I knew that I wanted to swing with you for the rest of my life.

You're the most beautiful, the sweetest and the best.

We've been together 5 years, and I hope at least 50 years more.

Dear Iris, will you marry me? -lris, say yes.

Iris, answer him. - Say yes.

Yes.

Have you ever bought shoes in the very first shop you entered?

Do you mean that Maurits is your first shop?

Maybe I'd like to try some other shop as well, just to be sure.

You go in my place.
