The Best Questions For A First Date

February 8th, 2011 by Christian Rudder

First dates are awkward. There is so much you want to know about the person across the table from you, and yet so little you can directly ask.

Do my date and I have long-term potential?
Ask your date (and yourself!)...
» Do you like horror movies?
» Have you ever traveled around another country alone?
» Wouldn't it be fun to chuck it all and go live on a sailboat?

Of all questions appropriate to a first date, the three listed above were the ones couples most often agreed on.

Here's how we know...

the only one I could agree on would be the middle one I can't stand horror movies and wouldn't want to live on a boat

If my date asks me if I like beer and I say no (because I hate beer) will this now stop these idiots from assuming I will have sex with them on the first date?

Because if so, I will add a bling-ed out button to all my other jewelry that says, I Hate Beer and that issue will be solved.

Only the ones who read the article, retained the beer question, and thought to ask it - I'm sure such a small % that you are statistically unlikely to run across any of them.

You don't need to fill out hardly anything on OKC. The questions are optional, but some are silly and fun. The more you answer, the more random matches you get on the left column. There's no stats popup, but the profile is only a click away. some of the (optional) tests are hysterical.

I never used POF, but have friends that do, and believe OKC's mail is superior.

Sheesh - don't apologise for CM - it's head and shoulders above the rest for useful, easy to use facilities. (And I've noticed quite a lot of bdsm stuff here which OKC etc don't seem to have. Maybe that's just 'cos I look out for that sort of thing).

Now if only you could take over IC and have a UK-centric site ... then I would like to have your babies.
