“How was it for you?” First date questions
So you got him or her to say yes to a first date. You are going to a movie or out to dinner. Now you have a major problem: what are you going to talk about?
Yup. That's right. A first date is just the beginning of the building a relationship. So what will you talk about? Questions to ask on a first date can be some of the most awkward and yet the most fun.
The most important thing to remember: Everyone likes to talk about themselves most. That means, if you aren't hearing a lot about them, you are talking too much. So what you need are questions to ask on a first date.
One of the best ways to ask questions is to ask some 'would you rather' questions. They are really awesome conversation starters.
You don't need to memorize a hundred of them. After all, you don't want to sound like a five year old with lots of questions.
Avoid the typical dating questions:
“So what do you do for a living?”
“Where were you born?”
Here are a few good first date questions to ask:
“Would you rather have a complete Humphrey Bogart collection on a deserted island or just the expanded version of Titanic?”
“Would you rather walk ten miles with no shoes or one mile with no clothes?”
“Would you rather eat apples for the rest of your life or chocolate?”
The key is to get the other person to talk about how they think and feel. You want to try to understand what is important to them and what motivates them.
The best part of 'would you rather' questions is that they are so familiar people don't focus on the way you asked it, but on the what you asked.
“Would you rather have a full day with the Pope or a full week with Snooky?”
“Would you rather ride a horse twenty miles or a bike with no seat for two miles?”
Make sure that everything you ask is fun and not offensive but can start an interesting conversation.
The best first dates you will ever have are the ones that will help you have a second date. So, dont forget, the key is to simply make sure that you learn about them.
