Misunderstood Compliment
Having a pleasant aroma is extremely important, particularly before going out on a date. On a first date, you do not want to smell like onion soup or sweat, so it is best to lather on as many scents as possible. Jordan made the conscious decision to go to great lengths to ensure that she smelled like a fragrant flower.
Her date complimented her on how nice she smelled, but she couldn’t help but be very anxious throughout the entire evening. She could have thanked him for the compliment, but instead she described her breathing to him. A little goofy, but with an endearing quality all the same. The worst date ever doesn’t sound nearly as bad as other dates that could be much worse.
