The 100 Most Important Questions You Should Ask on Your First Date

I’ve come up with a slew of questions to ask on a first date. Warning: DO NOT ask every one of these questions on the very first date. If you do, your guy will think he’s you’re using enhanced interrogation techniques used by the CIA. That's not what you're going for, girl!

I could come up with piles of questions to ask on a first date, but I'll stick with only 100 (for today)

Just remember first dates are supposed to be playful and fun so you can learn more about the guy you’re going out on a date with. With that being said, there can be some quiet times during your convo, and that’s fine and dandy. It’ll give you plenty of time to look into each other’s eyes.

But when you’re not soul gazing you can be getting to know each other better with flirty first date questions. Don't be a weirdo and plow through these like a dump truck going through a wooden fence though. Give them a little time to simmer and let your date ask you some questions. These questions will help you attract a man.
