While Britani may only be a Friend in Season 5, she’s managed to have the whole cast talk about her in every episode. This is mainly due to her dramatic on-again, off-again relationship with Jared Osmond. Can’t blame a girl for wanting to be with Mormon royalty. However, Britani likes to go on lots of dates when she is in off-again mode with Jared. And she keeps track of all of them on a spreadsheet.
Britani Bateman says she organizes her dating life because “when you have 10,000 people, you have to get efficient”
During Angie Katsanevas’ mob wives anniversary party, Britani brought Aaron as her date, surprising the cast. Everyone assumed it would be Jared. Heck, even Mary Cosby thought Aaron was Jared. Britani explained she went on a lot of dates when single. Hence the arrival of Aaron. And a girl has to keep all of that organized.
Britani went on the RHOSLC After Show to explain how she keeps her dating life in check. And her trick is a spreadsheet. Who knew one of Britani’s hidden talents was being a wiz at Excel?
She explained that after she and Jared broke up for the billionth time, she got on social media and got thousands of hits. Britani shared, “I was like, ‘Well, fine, I’m not the fish you want to catch? I’m not good enough for you?’ Well, boom, I’m gonna get on social and see what I can do. Boom, 10,000 hits on Bumble. Boom, 15,000 on Tinder. And I’m gonna have my pick.”
Britani continued, “I didn’t need to have 10 people on rotation or whatever, but I did. I would stack them like three dates a night just for efficiency. A five, a seven, and a nine. When you have 10,000 people, you have to get efficient. I don’t have a lot of time. And I kept track of them on a spreadsheet.”
She added, “I have my list of what I’m looking for — and do they check this box? And then I would narrow it down.” If Britani can master a pivot table, she can do anything. Including finding Mr. Right.
