Starting a conversation on the first date can be difficult. You need to deal with nervousness, feel the other person, and find a topic that will be interesting to both. However, five questions should not be asked, as this will be a fatal mistake.
Bunte reveals which questions should not be voiced on the first date.
The first date can be stressful and exhausting because you want to present yourself in the best possible way and not focus on topics about the weather. However, it is important to be careful when it comes to certain conversation topics. Because it can make a negative impression.
Why your past relationships didn't work out
On the first date, it's not worth digging into the past or opening old wounds of your conversation partner. Moreover, most likely you will not receive an honest answer at the first meeting. If someone has experienced difficult relationships, it does not mean that it will be equally difficult with you.
"Sometimes we become a new version of ourselves with another person. Some people bring out the best in us, and some people bring out the worst," explains love expert Susan Winter.
What are your relationships with your parents like
It's best not to ask overly personal questions. Intrusive inquiries about family or friends can be off-putting. You should build deeper conversations slowly so that no one feels uncomfortable.
Do you want a relationship
If you ask someone on a first date if they are looking for a long-term relationship, your date may end earlier than you would like. Although you should clarify that you are seeking a long-term perspective, the first meeting is not the right time. It's simply too early to discuss such topics.
How can you work in such a job
Judgmental comments about the appearance of your new acquaintance or their job are unacceptable.
"You don't want your date to feel like you're scoring them for what they say (or their appearance) and checking them out for future suitability," says dating expert Andrea Syrtash.
What's your favorite sex position
The topic of sex should not be an issue on a first date. It's inappropriate on a first meeting and can quickly come off as intrusive. And more often than not, it's men who commit this sin - they ask such questions too early and too much.
And we also talked about the three questions that can help you understand if you still love your partner.
