It was an awkward start to 2019 for this man.
An unnamed Dutch man was seen on live TV getting rejected trying to go in for a New Year’s kiss on Tuesday. The cringeworthy encounter was first posted on Twitter by user ThatRexGuy.
“I hope your 2019 starts off better than this guy’s,” he wrote on the social media site.

The tweet, which has been retweeted 67,000 times, has become somewhat of a viral sensation. Many also pointed out this man shouldn’t have gone in for the kiss the second time — the woman on TV clearly wasn’t interested.

According to the original Twitter post, the clip was from a Dutch TV show called Top 200.
“I don’t know either person in the video and just re-posted the video from Reddit. Please stop fighting in my mentions,” the user added.
