Complex had an article back in 2013. 30 Conversations to Avoid Having on a First Date
eHarmony has summarized it to Eight:
It's a bit easier if this is someone you've met through friends. But when it comes to a complete stranger, you're gonna have to test the water for the right temperature.
When you get desperate, you start throwing s*** at the wall to see what sticks. Because the worst is when either one of you, blabs on for 5 minutes about something and the other just nods, gives the occasional "that's interesting... that's cool". and they are just being respectful but have nothing to bring to the conversation
If It's online dating. Do your homework. Hopefully she has an active online presence. Get out your NSA badge and start scavenging for things the two of you might connect on
