How to turn this list into an actual date

  • Book somewhere mid-quiet. A place where you have to shout your feelings is a place where feelings go to die.
  • Brunch beats dinner for a first meeting: daylight, casual exit, and mimosas if it's going great.
  • Ask before you recommend: allergies, diets, and spice tolerance are all first-message material.
  • Two-course rule: if dessert happens, it's going well. If the check comes early, no harm done.
