Suzanne reflects on her dates with Frank and Avery on The Later Daters
Suzanne discussed her recent dates with Frank and Avery during a conversation with Logan in episode 5 of The Later Daters. She shared her thoughts on the two men and highlighted their key differences. Suzanne described Frank as “very handsome,” but mentioned his height and the fact that he had young children as concerns for her.
She explained that while she enjoyed their conversation, these factors made it difficult for her to see a future with him. With Avery, Suzanne noted that she appreciated his “big personality” and enjoyed talking to him. However, she pointed out that he had a 14-year-old child, which was a dealbreaker for her.
She also joked that his support for Alabama’s football team made her question their compatibility even more. Suzanne revealed that she and Avery had gone on a second date to a Georgia football game. When Logan asked why she chose to meet him again despite her concerns, Suzanne explained that she wanted to see how his personality would play out:
"I wanted to see just how obnoxious he was."
Suzanne mentioned that she had a good time but felt unsure about expressing a strong interest in him. Logan noted that this was one of Suzanne's pet peeves. She said:
"There's true dealbreakers which are fundamental incompatibilities and then there's things like a pet peeve."
Logan’s observations of Suzanne on The Later Daters
Logan reflected on Suzanne’s approach in a confessional, discussing the difference between true dealbreakers and pet peeves. She observed that Suzanne’s strict boundaries might stem from a desire to protect herself from rejection.
Logan noted that Suzanne seemed to label men and women over 50s and 60s as "rejects," suggesting it was a way to avoid deeper connections preemptively.
When Logan pointed out that being a widow didn’t make Suzanne a “reject,” Suzanne acknowledged the emotional baggage that came with her life experiences. Suzanne said:
"Widows have baggage too." Logan said it was a self-protection mechanism, where "I reject you before you reject me."
Logan then asked how she could help Suzanne in overcoming these challenges. Suzanne expressed her willingness to continue meeting new people and pursuing dating opportunities, although she admitted that being vulnerable remained a struggle for her.
All the episodes of The Later Daters are currently streaming on Netflix.
