Answers to questions from Medium Magazine about Dating.
1. What do you think about
dating apps?
They work well if you are levelheaded. Do your
research on the person you chose to interact with and head warning signs/red
flags that someone is deceitful or dangerous.
2. What tips would you give to
someone who has to go on a first date? I am not sure why you say, "..has
to go on a first date." You shouldn't feel forced to go on a first date.
The essential tips would be to pick a safe place, let friends know where you
are and who you are meeting, plan on the way to exit if you need to gracefully.
If you don't feel happy and excited about the prospect of dating the person
rethink the date. Have topics you like to talk about and that they may enjoy
discussing. And number one, be interested and curious about your date. Expect
to have a good time! You are discovering a new human being, and that is
glorious.
3. Choose one of the following
questions:
o
What
are some great conversation starters for a first date? Why?
What's the best thing that has happened in
your life in the last week? In the last year?
What's the most unique positive thing about
you? Examples: One set of twins, lived in another country, have skied in the Swiss
Alps, you volunteer at Foodbank, you have lobbied with your Representatives for
World Peace. You have been in the parade at Comic-Con. You are asking for a positive
story. This question leads to great conversations and insights.
Who is a person in
your life that is your True North, the most hones credible person you know? What
kind of behavior do they demonstrate? What do they say?
4. What are some original date ideas?
Do something fun, playful exciting. For
example, Go on the Farris Wheel, Blacklight
bowling, Karaoke, an international farmers market, find a fruit or other food
you haven't eaten, eat or cook it, go to a bookstore or library, and give each
other a quest to find something in a book. You will get your adrenaline up and
see how the other person enjoys the excitement and good adventure.
5. How long should someone
wait before entering a more serious relationship with someone? That depends so
much on you. Do you feel comfortable and safe and your best self in their
presence? Do they make you feel the world and other people in it are overall
good? Do they like your friends and family. Do they speak well of people with whom
they have close relationships? Do you feel good when you have spent 24 hours
