thnk you. I wanted it for today.

Just try to let natural conversation flow. If you're going to play games, play a real one. I once went on a date where we went to a place that had real board games you can play. ( since closed). It led to casual conversation. ps - we got married

. Personally I think dating has become too much about "games". Life is natural - let conversation flow. Difficult converstions are part of life and how people bring up or respond to difficult topics is all part of who the person is. I think the game is interspersed with serious and fun questions.Make that part of your natural conversation.

What would you do if the girl is just a quiet introvert and you need things to help conversations spark? Everyone is different what works for you won't work for someone else.

+100
Or the boy

The point is, even when you feel you need it, don't make the date all about the game. Use the game to enhance the date and to help spark and/or enhance your conversation.

I tried playing it once and the girl insisted on skipping questions she didn't like. Needless to say we did not get married

For that reason, I go thru it beforehand and take out the questions I don't want to answer.

We're obviously not talking about using it on the 1st or 2nd date, not even the 3rd even. More on a 4th or later, depends on how quick it's going. Yeah, the first couple of dates you just let conversation flow.

Plenty of the questions I would not even think of asking.

I will also say that I did not need to use this when I was dating my wife

Traffic on Route 9 and on Squankum Rd will be heavy as all the new daters will be leaving for their first dates. The Lounge at the Brooklyn Marriott is expecting an over flow crowd. Chelsea Piers has 2 bouncers at the door reminding these new young 1st timers that unless its their 3rd date they should not be there. It doesn’t Pas.

REMINDER to all new daters. Take your keys, take your ez-pass, fill the car up with gas, only take your hat off after you have opened the door for your date, she is in the car and you both have your seat belts fastened.

If the anticipated traffic is heavy call the Shadchan to inform the girls family you are running late, make sure she is home by 11:30, walk her to the door, and most important of all…..don’t text all your friends about your date while your driving back to Lakewood. Wait till you are back in the dorm.

Keep in mind that while you are sure every girl is waiting for you to come out of the freezer and since you are such a great catch these poor girls are just plotzing to date you and they should feel honored that after the long list of names you chose them to be your first date…..still….if you get engaged within a week it will start rumors that you must have not waited till the freezer door opened and then the Shidduch may not be Chal:)

Happy dating!
