Instead of the usual topics, I wanted to change it up a bit and discuss something fun and lighthearted:

A. Do you have any dating tips for the same or opposite sex?

B. What makes a good/bad date?

C. Tell us about the best/worst date you've had.

D. How much should be spent on a first date?

E. How do you overcome the initial awkwardness?

F. Anything else you'd like to add or discuss? Feel free.

As for me, I'll offer a tip. In my opinion, dinner dates are played out. Especially for first dates, I've never taken a woman out to eat on a first date because its so... boring. We should be getting to know each other, and the best way to do that, is through a shared activity. So, ideally, your first date should be a 30min-1hr fun activity. Why? Its enough time to see if there's chemistry, but short enough to leave if there's none.

My go-to first date is an escape room. Its fun, uncommon, requires teamwork, problem solving, and communication. Even if the date goes badly, at least you can have fun on your own. I would advise everyone to give it a shot, because it allows you to quickly get to know someone. How? It forces you to think, work together, and overcome obstacles. Its an easy way to detect red flags. Did she get frustrated and give up? Did she laugh and have a good time even while failing? Did she berate you for doing something wrong? Did you work well together? Etc... basically, it's a fast way to get to know the "real" her. It has never failed me, and afterwards, we usually go somewhere else. Only downside is it can be relatively expensive.
