The 31-year-old construction foreman from Sydney, who has been branded “Mr Perfect” in the promo’s for the popular reality dating show, said the ladies he has dated have left him because they don’t know how to deal with his “old school romantic” views.

“I find most of the time they are damaged from their past relationships and are afraid to commit.

“It is something that had been on my mind for a few years now,” he said.

“All my mates said I would be really great on one of these shows.
