Long story short: Traffic made her late but she found him “so handsome;” he called her “really pretty,” and the date took off from there. They snarked, and played – their photos include on of Fulop “fake proposing” to Gold — and gave the night a perfect 5. And after all that, the two never reconnected. She headed off to London while he found himself focusing on a new relationship with someone else. Gold is now engaged and set to wed in early August; Fulop is single and up for another go at Date Lab. (Any takers?)

They bonded over body art and reading material, and followed up with a few dates. But Hurley says her school and work schedule, and an overseas trip, made getting together hard. “We just lost touch with each other,” Hurley says. “I feel bad, because it wasn’t like I ever called and said, ‘I’m sorry, I’m just really busy.’ ” Martella says she figured Hurley wasn’t interested and suspects the timing “made the match a little unworkable.”

Dec. 10, 2006 (This triathlete loves a challenge. How about a quick-witted entrepreneur?)
Okay, okay, so the Ironman and the entrepreneur didn’t have a lot in common. They still managed to get in a few good laughs – and some high-spirited photos – before acknowledging “a friend vibe.” The two connected as pals a few times and still see each out and about socially. Kaufman tried Date Lab again a few months later but still no romance. He’s single, but undaunted in dating. “I maintain a healthy optimism that I’ll meet someone,” he says.
