Tilly () is steadily growing a following on TikTok with her viral videos of 50 first dates with only rich men.
She got glammed up in an 80s-style outfit after using Hinge to find her sixth man to go on a date with.
Her profile listed that she wanted someone who works in construction, willing to take her shopping, and described herself as a “princess.”
Despite having never been to Chigwell, she opted for it as her location rather than searching for a match in London.

“Men in construction from Essex are usually my type of people, proper lad’s lads and when I say in construction he owns a construction company,” she said.
Tilly was impressed when her date reimbursed the cost of her Uber, which she got to avoid being three hours late travelling by train.
However, the man gave her “the ick” by repeatedly talking about how much money he spends on his daily life.
“He’s really nice and got that large Essex energy but one thing I cannot stand in a man is when he keeps talking about money,” she said.

“How hypocritical for me to say I’m looking for a rich man but you can’t talk about money.”
She confessed that his “flashy” behaviour had left her second guess going on a second date.

Thousands of people watched her video and rushed to the comment section to share their opinions.
Many viewers encouraged Tilly to go on a second date with the man.
“I’m a bit like you and cut off after the first date but my advice is to go on that second date. He might be nervous so give it a chance,” one person said.
“I think you should just tell him, if he was nice and you liked other aspects of him, he probably didn’t realise he was turning you off instead of turning you on haha,” another commented.

Among the excited comments saying Tilly is “living my dream” were also people arguing that she shouldn’t be fixated on wealth.
“I would never get with a rich person after what I’ve experienced. Coercive control plus money is so dangerous. What will he want in return for the crumbs of wealth? Ick all the way,” one person said.
“Why do the guys you date have to have money? It’s def not the way to find happiness!” another wrote.
