A WOMAN on a Tinder first date was forced to lockdown with her (very) new beau after the pair both tested positive for Covid while they were still together.
TikToker Sarah, who posts with the handle @poppymoore777, said that she had only just met up with her match from the popular app when they discovered they were infected.
The duo isolated at his place despite hardly knowing each other and couldn’t see anyone else for the full seven days of quarantine.
Sarah documented the isolation period with the new fella and shared updates with fans on social media.
The couple made the best of the situation, ordering takeaways, watching Geordie Shore and playing Mario Kart.
In the videos Sarah started by sharing a shot of her positive Covid test and then by displaying the empty beer crates and takeaway bags they had worked through together.
Fellow TikTok users were enthralled by the unlikely turn of events with the videos amassing more than three million views.
Some questioned why Sarah hadn’t just gone home to isolate on her own.
She said: “Due to personal reasons [isolating by myself] wasn’t possible.”
Excited by the unconventional start to the relationship, many were invested in the situation.
One said: “At least you would know what it’s like to live with him so you can decide whether or not he’s the one.”
Another said: “This is a new age rom-com.”
A third said: “I mean I would rather this than alone.”
Another joked: “Relationship seven-day free trial.”
