QUESTIONS TO ASK ON A FIRST DATE
The trick to having a fun first date is to ask questions that will get your date saying: "Wow"! "That's a really good question". To achieve this you have to be really attentive to the person your on the date with, this will help you to ask questions that will present a challenge. Get your date to explore things about his/herself that have been overlooked or forgotten. The best first date questions to ask ever are the ones that they never imagined to be answering.
Not knowing what to say and having to sit through that awkward silence, is the worst experience of any date. Imagine ruining the chance of being with a great person simply because the date was dull and boring. Questions are easy to ask, when you know what to say, but the most suitable questions are the ones that leads to a good conversation. Although the first date is "kinda" an interview, it should never feel like one. Unless you want the person to be dying for the date to end, rather than looking forward to the next date.
"Get ready to learn the art of asking questions and making it feel like a regular flowing conversation".
First thing first: This list is just a guide and it must be treated as such. Don't try to memorize the questions just so you can throw them at your date in "rapid fire", these questions are "gap stoppers" to be used to avoid "dead air" and start conversations. If a deep conversation develops, keep it going! Don't break it just so you can get back to asking questions.
Choose a few questions that appeals to you, that best suits your personality. Get your date talking, laughing and sharing a good time while you both give insights about each other.
