Great conversation starters can fuel up your dating experience and lead to more meaningful conversations and a deeper relationship. The more you get to know a person on a first date, the better you will be able to understand whether you should invest time in them seriously or not.
“A stunning first impression was not the same thing as love at first sight. But surely it was an invitation to consider the matter.” – Lois McMaster Bujold
There you go! Let’s admit it, we all want to make a good impression the first time we go for a date. It takes a considerable amount of time to know a person inside out but to spark it off further, you need to go beyond the surface. If you really want to set fire to your first date, how you converse and connect to the person is equally important alongside the way you present yourself.
One crappy conversation can destroy the chances of a potentially steaming hot chemistry. To keep things a little flirty, a little intellectual, a little humorous and light-hearted, these ice-breakers will save you from the awkward silences that too often fill a date.
Be sporty and gear up!
