Let's face it, for most people, the first meeting with a person for whom we start to have small butterflies in our stomach is often an awkward moment. What to wear, how to behave, the right questions to ask based on the fact that we know very little, or not at all, what we are facing... In short, there is a mountain of ambiguity!
But according to Susan Trombetti, a relationship expert, there are some typical questions that, if asked, can make the first date impressive while also leaving a good taste behind.
#1 Who was your first love?
This seems like an awkward question, but touching on nostalgic chapters in a new expected romance is an insight where you can get a lot of details about the type of person, the romance, the kisses, the place, etc.
#2 How was the first kiss and how romantic was the place?
A question that allows you to get additional details about whether you see a future together as a couple, even if it's just the first date. You understand if he/she is flirtatious, serious, etc.
#3 Tell me two truths and a lie
It seems like a game played by all of us, but it also brings some notes of humor to the table. The fact that the person in front of you talks about a past story, a fabricated truth or lie, etc.
#4 What would you do with your life if money didn't matter?
A person can always dream! But when you ask this question, you almost get an insight into how he/she relates to work, responsibilities, money or investments.
#5 What is that one thing you have that surprises people?
Asking about surprise on a first date is a way to create some space for vulnerability or seriousness, which the person in front of you may or may not have in abundance.
#6 What is the ideal weekend like for you?
This is a typical question to figure out if you're going to fall in love with a man who likes breakfast in bed, or a morning person who holds his breath at the beach, pool or attraction on his next getaway.
#7 Favorite place to travel to?
The point of this question is not necessarily to add a new country to your bucket list, but to see how well your approaches match up in terms of overseas travel plans, schedules, seat choices, etc.
#8 Something you want to achieve this year?
This question is fantastic for bringing out the seriousness of the girl/boy you're starting to have feelings for, your plans for the future, and your seriousness in getting things done.
#9 What is the best compliment you have received?
Compliments often say a lot about the traits people value in us, so when you ask this question you also get an insight into what else they see as positive about you, both in terms of appearance and personality.
