Man's New Year's Kiss Gets Rejected On Live TV

Man's New Year's Kiss Gets Rejected On Live TV

The clip has gone viral after he was taught a public lesson in consent when the clock struck midnight

Happy New Year! Well, unless not everything went quite to plan. Like if, say, the party was quiet, the fireworks were a disappointment, or you've little to no memory of exactly what happened but you've got The Fear that you did something bad...

Well, don't worry. It's 2019 now, that's all in the past and we can forget about it - that is, unless it was all caught on live TV, then shared online. Which is exactly what happened to this guy. See or yourself:

As the ball gets ready to drop, plenty of couples pucker up for that all-important midnight NYE smooch - well, this guy was a little more eager than his intended partner as he went fully in for the kiss but she didn't seem too keen to reciprocate in quite the same way.

In the clip, as the camera stops on the guy, he turns and goes in for a full on open-mouth kiss - in fact it looks like he's approaching her like you'd approach a Maccies on a hungover New Year's Day.

However, the blonde girl who seems to be the object of his affections simply shudders as she turns away. AWKWARD.

Just imagine that, waking up on New Year's Day and thinking 'did I do anything stupid last night? Nah' - only to open social media to see the moment of brutal rejection plastered across the internet. Ouch.

Spare a thought too for the girl who had to do an uncomfortable I-don't-want-to-be-kissed swerve on live television, as I'm pretty sure that's not how she'll have wanted to be remembered at the end of 2018 either.

The cringeworthy moment took place on a a Dutch TV show called Top2000 Live and there is definitely a stark resemblance to a certain scene from the American version of The Office...

To be fair, it's always best to check the if the person you want to kiss at midnight actually wants to kiss you too. It's called consent, mate, look it up.

Of course, people have taken the piss out of the poor guy across social media.

One person tweeted: "My dude, it's a kiss not a meal."

Another said: "Here - if you slow it down and go frame by frame, you can see the exact moment he wished he was dead."

A third commented: "Went in thinking he was 38 games unbeaten, only to be handed a last min loss on the final day."

A comment along with the post said: "I hope your 2019 starts off better than this guy's."

Trudat. I can't stop watching this though.
