What to talk about on the first date?

I just wanted to tell you that I think it's cool that you're putting yourself out there. I think it might help you to relax and have a good time if you try to keep in mind that the stakes aren't really that high. Try to have a good time, and the rest will take care of itself. If not, then it wasn't meant to be with this guy, and there will plenty of others.

If you're searching for something to talk about, you could talk about why you wanted to go to this particular restaurant and what is it about it that interests you. And then how the experience related to your expectations.

And remember, everyone likes it when you laugh at their jokes. Have fun.

This.

I'm just a little intimidated because more accomplished than I. Although I have a degree, I've been stagnant in my career since relocating

M attorney here. Ask him about his area of practice, why he chose it, does he like it, his clients, any big cases/deals/projects, his firm, his coworkers, does he travel for work, etc. That's two hours right there

Two hours of boredom.

It went well. We kissed, but he's not as physically attractive as other guys that I've dated. Otherwise, he's good so far.
