Asking about sex with an ex will decrease your second-date chances by 40%

What’s Off the Table: Past relationships are dating landmines, as only 14% of singles will discuss an ex on a first date

  • Getting Specific: Discussing abortion can be contentious, but three-quarters of singles will discuss this topic on a first date. Over 80% of singles are happy to talk about religion, gun control, immigration and marriage equality, too.
  • Pop Culture & Sports: Don’t know a “safety” from a “hat trick?” No worries. Less than 20% of men and 23% of women care if a date knows about sports. And no need to keep up with the Kardashians, since only 10% of women and 11% of men care if a date follows celebrity and pop culture.

You may not get an honest answer anyway, as a quarter of singles admit to lying about sex with past lovers.

Menus and Makeouts: Almost 75% of singles prefer American cuisine on a first dinner date. But if you want to take a risk, go for sushi; it will boost your chances of a second date by 170%. As for beverages, singles’ drink of choice is soda and/or iced tea (29%). However, if you want to lock in a second date, order a cocktail (and skip the wine or beer), as this will increase your second-date chances by 137%. Ler mais
