The Honesty Box - Q&A with Panni

Panni
29
Events promoter from Lincoln

How would you describe yourself?
Outgoing, bubbly and spontaneous. Love to go on little adventures or do different things. I come from a traditional Cypriot family. I've been brought up to be the provider, to respect and to care for the woman I'm with.

Do you have any dating red flags?
My biggest red flags in a girl is someone who is very devious and hides away a lot of information. So I like someone who's quite straight up and honest with me.

What are your turn ons?
My biggest turn on in a girl is someone who's confident. Someone who's funny. Who has a nice smile and a nice laugh. And I’m very much into eye contact. If you've got a strong eye contact, you've won me over.

And biggest turn off?
When a girl takes her heels off on a night out and walks around barefooted. Bring some socks with you!

How do you tend to meet girls?
I tend to meet girls through nights out. Especially with within my work, I get to meet a lot of people. So nine times out of ten, we'll end up messaging each other on socials and start talking.

Are you a party boy?
I used to be quite a big party boy. Now I have chilled out quite a lot. I still like to party, but probably not as much.

What makes you look for a relationship now?
I'm ready for a relationship now because I have finally found myself. I'm content and happy within myself. So now I want to share that experience with someone else.

Why do you feel in such a good place now?
I've got to a place where I am very content with my work, and also with just spending time on my own. I've got really good people around me, my friends and my family. At this point now, I'm very comfortable within myself.

What’s your worst trait in dating?
My worst traits are the fact that I like to be chased a little bit. And my emotion is really hard to read.

What type of first impression do you make?
When people meet me, they do think I'm quite confident and might be hesitant to approach me. But deep down, once you get to know me, I'm quite a nice, kind guy who just likes to get on with people.

Would you say you’re a good judge of character?
I think I'm a good judge of character, and I can read people really well. I like to break down people's boundaries and get to know them before letting myself go as well.

Do you have a tell that gives away when you’re lying?
I would say that I've normally got quite a good poker face. You won't be able to tell if I'm lying or not. Although depending on the situation, I can get quite jittery or I stutter.

Are you an honest person?
I’m a big overthinker and I always try to think before I speak. I am honest and if I have an opinion on something I will voice that. I will stick to my guns.

Have you ever cheated?
I've only cheated on someone once. I did confess, and we did move past it. But the trust wasn’t there. It is something regret.

Are you quick to fall in love?
Normally when I meet someone and everything's going well, I will fall quite quickly for them. I like to get to know someone though before getting in too deep.

Who would play you in the movie of your life? And the love interest?
The person who would play me in the movie is definitely Channing Tatum. And the love interest would have to be Michelle Keegan.

Have you got a game plan going into Truetopia?
I haven't got a game plan. I'm going to go in there, meet as many people as I possibly can, make friends and try and find the love of my life.
