Meeting the parents of your romantic interest can be a terrifying experience . But imagine how much worse it would be if they had read the sexts you had sent their son to kick off the romance ! YouTuber Riyadh Khalaf , 24 , bravely invited his mum Lorraine , 46 , to join him on his Youtube channel to filter some potential dates by reading out messages he had received on gay dating app Grindr . Ahead of filming Riyadh left the app open on his phone for an hour each night for three weeks , and in the video the pair sit sipping wine as Lorraine proceeds to read out the uncensored messages to her son , who has yet to hear them himself . The experience makes for a cringeworthy but quite adorable video that sees Lorraine shocked by some of the explicit messages that her son has received . 'Group fun . ' She reads from one user , 'What does that mean ? ! ' 'That they want to play Monopoly together , ' a joking Riyadh responds . Like any good mother Lorraine is quick to offer advice on who might be suitable match for Riyadh . 'He 's nice ' she says about one Grindr member . When asked why she adds : 'Nice body . Lovely muscles , lovely skin . ' Youtuber Riyadh Khalaf invited his mother Lorraine to read his Grindr messages to him on video . But Lorraine is n't impressed by everyone , saying of one user : 'He is gross . Well he 's scruffy . His hair 's all over the place , he 's just a dog . ' Despite some awkward messages cropping up including a semi nude picture , Lorraine makes a stoic effort to act cool before admitting that she is 'slightly traumatised ' at the end of the video . Ahead of filming Riyadh left the gay dating app open for an hour each night to allow the messages to pour in . Lorraine says she was left 'slightly traumatised ' after reading some of the more explicit messages to her son . Speaking to the MailOnline Riyadh says that he could n't think of anyone better to sift through potential dates than his own mother . ' I decided to get my mom involved because I wanted her to say which ones she found appropriate . 'She has this amazing filter for who would be right for me and so does my dad , they are both very protective of who would be good enough for their boy . ' Riyadh says he could not think of anyone better to filter through potential partners than his own mother . Although Lorraine took a little convincing to take part Riyadh says that she turned out to be the more enthusiastic of the two . 'It took me about a month to persuade her . When I first asked she said `` absolutely not . '' 'But I promised to give her complete editorial control and when I had actually edited it she wanted to put more in ! 'There were some I had to cut though . I was n't going to put clips of my mother discussing male appendages online , those clips will never see the light of day . ' Although he proved popular on Grindr Riyadh says that the experience had n't encouraged him to use the app again . 'It 's not for me . I 'm not into one night stands , an old soul that 's what I 've been called , a real old romantic . ' Riyadh says that the experience had not encouraged him to continue using Grindr but that he had received several date offers from around the world . Despite some of the nature of the video Riyadh says that the majority of the feedback he has received has been positive , with lots of people commenting on his 'beautiful ' relationship with his mother .

'Most people have been commenting on how beautiful our relationship is . My mom has been very popular I 've had people saying they want to be her best friend and they want to bitch with her . ' The video which has only been online for three days has already received over one million views , however the 24-year-old admits that he had his doubts on whether the video would be a success . ' I did have this fear that I would have the finger pointed at me for promoting a gay stereotype but 99 per cent of the comments have been positive . ' Ryadh is currently filming a campaign video for same sex marriage in Ireland to be released next month . To view Ryadh 's other videos visit his Youtube channel .
