DUBBED the least fussy dater in Australia, Bridie Cahill said she is simply keeping her options open after already dating plenty of “wankers”.
The 20-year-old yesterday opened up about her history of unforgettable bad dates, cheating boyfriends and the awkward encounters which have kept her single.
Cahill said Sydney’s dating scene was filled with “losers” and “wankers”.

“I am a wanker magnet, I have dated a lot of losers over the years,” she said.
“I think I probably have another good five or six years of dating wankers to be honest.”
TV’s newest reality star, Cahill was quickly tagged the least fussy woman in the nation after saying yes to the possibility of dating every suitor on the first night of Channel 7’s Take Me Out.
Even host Joel Creasy questioned the bubbly blonde asking: “So, any guys you are not really into?”
“I was happy to keep my light on to learn more about the guys than just their name,” Cahill said yesterday. “I think a lot of people were too judgey.
“I am more about personality. I wanted to give the guys a chance.”
She said that Sydney’s dating scene was tough to navigate.
“Guys and girls in Sydney are pretty judgmental,” she said. “I am only 20 but I have had a lot of crazy dating stories.”
The young romantic told The Daily Telegraph about one boyfriend who slept with her best friend, another who took her home to “his” house, which ended up being the home of his grandparents, who she was forced to meet in the morning.
Another potential new boyfriend’s family confused her with another woman.
While some viewers suggested Cahill was “desperate”, she said she was not affected by social media commentary on her debut TV appearance.
“It didn’t bother me,” she said.
“I went on the show for a bit of fun — it wasn’t like I had to marry one of them.”
Last night the 20-year-old walked away from the show with budgie smuggler-wearing Jackson.
It is understood their romance was short-lived, but Cahill said she still thinks he was a lovely guy.
And while Take Me Out had lacklustre audience numbers for the first episode, with just over 600,000 viewers, it proved to be a popular talking point on social media.
