5 questions to ask on the first date

The two of you sit awkwardly across the table, going through a document in your brain with the regular questionnaire. Questions about the weather, workplace and whether they prefer beaches or mountains are some of the most common discussions on the first date. Though they are great ice-breakers, they don’t really tell you much about a person. In the world of online dating, you’ve probably already spoken to them and exchanged these little tid-bits on text or call.

When you meet your crush or date for the first time in person, it’s a great opportunity to know them better by finding out their likes and dislikes, their body language in real life, the way they react and respond to their surroundings, etc. These minute details can tell you a lot about the person. So, instead of making small talk the core of your conversation, ask your date these five questions.
