From 26.January (8:15 p.m. at RTL, also on RTL+) is looking for "The Bachelor" again for his great love.This time Dominik Stuckmann (29) can distribute the roses.22 single women fight for the entrepreneur's attention.After the past season, which had to take place in Germany due to the corona pandemic, this time is flirting in Mexico.

With breathtaking backdrops, "of course you can paint a perfect date romantic on the beach, with a glass of wine, candlelight," says Stuckmann in an interview with the news agency Spot on News.A no-go on the first date?"If you only hang on the cell phone."The age doesn't matter - but the topic of wedding.

What do you pay attention to with a woman first?

Dominik Stuckmann: When I meet a woman, I actually pay attention to the face, on the eyes and the charisma that the woman brings with you.I think this is an important factor, because I can use the broadcast to notice whether there is a certain attraction or not.

What is the perfect first date for you?

Stuckmann: Against the background that the trip takes place in Mexico, you naturally paint a perfect date romantic on the beach, with a glass of wine, candlelight - that just sounds perfect.

Do you connect something to the country?

Stuckmann: I have never been to Mexico before, but after the trip I will surely have a huge connection to the country.If you experience unique things somewhere, of course that creates a huge connection and meaning.

What would be a no-go on a date for you?

Stuckmann: NO-GOS would be if you only hang on the cell phone on the first date, if you are late or do not pay any attention to the other person.In my opinion, you can also address when a date runs badly and say that it doesn't work.You don't have to come up with any emergency lies.Always communicate openly and honestly.

They travel a lot through their job.An obstacle to find a partner?

Stuckmann: Rather not.I commute between Gran Canaria and Frankfurt and get to know many people.Even outside of social media, because I have only recently had some there, I never had some before.The problem that I couldn't get to know women was never actually there.And when I get to know a woman, I have no problem binding to a location anymore.If a woman is either more or less tied to a certain location, I am also happy to change something for love - because I am not the long -distance relationship, under no circumstances.

One of the candidates works in Marbella in Spanish.With their commuting between Frankfurt and Gran Canaria, they have a connection to Spain themselves.Could that be an advantage for you?

Stuckmann: In any case, you have a little in common that you can talk about beforehand.She lives in Marbella, I have a big point of reference to Gran Canaria - that's an extraordinary situation for both.

Do you see yourself as a husband and family man in the near future?

Stuckmann: Yes, of course, that's the desired idea.Marriage is definitely a topic that I would like to tackle in the future - children get too.I can well imagine.

How did the shooting go under Corona conditions?

Stuckmann: There was a concrete concept and many measures, among other things we were tested very often.We have followed all the rules very strictly.

Did you get tips with your predecessors before?

Stuckmann: actually not, no.I also didn't follow a season completely in a row.From time to time I switched on, but never saw a season completely.And also when I found out that I would become the new "Bachelor", I didn't get any tips.I want to write my own and personal story anyway and do not set any standards.I don't want to orientate myself to anyone else.

The youngest candidate is only 21 years old.What do you think of big age differences between partners?Can it be an obstacle when getting to know?

Stuckmann: In my opinion, age doesn't matter at all, that's just a number.It is much more important in which life situation the person is in.In the end it has to fit somehow that you are in the same phase of life, with similarities to which you can build on.If all of this fits, age does not matter.

Among the candidates is a podcasterin who speaks open about sex and dating.Would she disturb that in a relationship?

Stuckmann: No, actually not.Everyone can speak what they want!It is also important to talk about many things.There are many people who don't dare to address such topics.It is an interesting topic, also polarizing.For me it is not a problem, I am very neutral, on the other hand.

In the last season there was a real lovechaos.What will you do differently than your predecessor?

Stuckmann: Making different is always a thing.Everyone writes their own story, everyone has to stay true to themselves and be authentic.If you comply with these things, you write a story that is very individual - you don't have to talk about "different".For my part, I can say that I am a humorous young man who wants to get to know this adventure and above all wants to meet a woman.And I hold on to my principles.
