5 Questions To Ask On A First Date

Tweet

Awkward silences on your first date can be very uncomfortable. You feel that the date is going well and you're getting along fine and then suddenly, bang! The conversation has stopped and you have run out of things to say.

You have probably asked her the entire general first date questions such as where do you like going out? Do you have any brothers or sisters? What do you do for a living? Although these questions are needed to find out a little bit about the woman your dating, they are pretty boring. So to keep the conversation flowing and slip in a few of these questions below to avoid any awkward silences and keep her intrigued.

WHATS THE SCARIEST THING YOU'VE EVER DONE?

This question is a great way to find out how adventurous she is. It will help you explore her fun side whilst finding out what types of risk she is comfortable at taking. It will also help you find out if you are both on the same wave length. Say you started dating and you took her for a sky dive, would she be up in the plane with you or down on the ground watching?

WHERE'S THE ONE PLACE YOU WOULD MOVE TO STRAIGHT AWAY IF YOU COULD?

Asking her this question can reveal a lot of her likes and dislikes. Does she opt for a city somewhere or a cottage in the middle of no where? It will allow you to figure out whether she is someone who would get up and go without hesitating or wants stability.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WON BIG ON THE LOTTERY?

She has probably thought about what she would do if she won the lottery, like most of us have. It will give you a chance to find out about her interests and how spontaneous she is. This question is great as it comes across as fun and gives you a closer look into what she is all about.

DO YOU FANCY TRYING SOMETHING DIFFERENT WITH ME?

When you're both browsing through the menu and she opts for something typical like pasta, ask her this question. Pick something off the menu that's a bit out of the ordinary like snails or squid (that's if the menu gives you the option of course). This will give you an insight into how open she is and whether she likes to experiment or not. Is she willing to try something new or is she set in her ways?

WHATS IT LIKE BEING A (INSERT HER JOB HERE)?

When you ask her about what she does for a living, ask her this question afterwards. People spend a lot of time at work, so she should have a lot to say about it. Is she career driven or only in it for the money? This conversation doesn't have to be boring. You could talk about office politics or interesting stories about co-workers. You can also talk about her ambitions and find out where she is heading in life. Are you both heading in similar directions?
