First Date Ideas That are Sure to Break The Ice

Looking for a great way to get to know someone new? We’ve all been there, and we all know what the first date jitters can be like. No worries! Here are four great first date ideas that are sure to break the ice.

Take a walk together. Yes, the simplest ideas are often the best, and when you’d really like to get to know someone a nice meandering walk with no particular place to go is the best way to stimulate a conversation.

Try a trivia night! Getting together for a drink is so cliché. Why not spice things up a little and find a pub that’s hosting a trivia night? You’ll get to see what it’s like working as a team and that conversation can have a few laughs thrown in as well.

Try an escape room. While we’d normally recommend keeping the first date as low pressure as possible, we may just make an exception for this kind of pressure. Escape rooms are tons of fun and popping up everywhere, so why not give them a try for your next date?

Meet up at sunset. Instant romance, anyone? Sunsets are perfectly picturesque and irresistibly romantic, and they’re a great way to start the first date. Follow it up with a walk to keep the conversation going.

Valuable First Date Questions

Looking for love? You’re not alone. In fact online dating statistics suggest that more of us are on the hunt for that special someone than ever before. But once you’re done swiping and messaging and you’re ready to meet in person, it may be difficult to know which questions to ask. Fear not! Here are three first date questions to help discover if you’ve truly met your match.

What does a typical day look like for you? A particularly common first date question goes along the lines of “What do you do for a living?” or “What field do you work in?” but these questions only tell a small part of the story. By asking about a typical day, you’ll not only find out about your potential partner’s work, which tends to come up eventually, you’ll also find out a little about what makes them tick and if the two of you are compatible.

Who are the most important people in your life? More often than not this question will reveal not just your date’s family history, it’ll reveal the kind of people they choose for friends, which will say a lot about their personality. As an added bonus, finding out about the types of relationships they maintain will help assess their ability to form and keep important relationships.

What are you passionate about? You know what they do, where they come from and who they value in their lives, but what really matters to them? Discovering someone’s passions goes a long way in determining compatibility and seeing if your long term goals align.
