Stop asking me so many questions |
Let me turn the table on you and ask you the same kind of questions you wanted to ask me |
Lets toast to a fresh start of having just a simple conversation |
Your desire to avoid stranger danger is not misplaced, but many people aren't going to like or appreciate the feeling of being interrogated — especially by someone they've just met. It can feel invasive, stressful, and wholly antithetical to the natural flow of a first conversation, but so many of us do it when we're excited or nervous. If you're looking for love or even just sex, though, you don't want to drive away prime candidates.
"One of the most common complaints I get after a first date is that it felt like a job interview," Question after question, almost a total interrogation. Leaving no room for chemistry or romance.
Don’t come in with a script, a list of questions to ask or answer, If you have a script that you are planning to get through you’re not leaving yourself open to pick up on emotion and create a connection or give off emotion and vulnerability.

In other words, let your date take the time to respond to a question you ask, and listen to their answer. Take that as a jumping off point for your next comment.
You may be aching to ask how many people your date has slept with — but don’t. Not on the first date, or second or maybe third," New York–based relationship and etiquette expert of Relationship Advice "You may want to know how much money they make — but don’t ask on a first date. And you may want to know what kind of debt your partner has, but don’t come right out and ask this on a first date."
Sure, there are pieces of information you might find critical to assessing a person's long-term potential, but this is a first meeting and not a marriage test. No one wants to talk credit scores instead of what should be casual banter. There are certain questions that can turn a nice first date into the definition of awkward, situation, because they’re inappropriate for someone you’re just getting to know."
