The problem with the date started with Diane's perception of a blind date being biased against the idea before the date ever started. This caused her to be quiet and standoffish throughout the date, which ultimately led to Tristan losing interest in her. If Diane had been more open-minded and willing to give the blind date a chance, the outcome may have been different.
