Things to Avoid Saying on a Blind Date 😷

Surprisingly, there are times when conversations with someone you're interested in don't flow naturally.

It could be due to excessive nervousness, personality differences,

or simply a lack of experience.

Even with parents, siblings, and friends, it's best to avoid political discussions 😤

Unless you're specifically trying to identify situations where someone's political views are so strong that they trigger a negative reaction,

it's best to avoid political discussions altogether.

And definitely not a good topic for a first meeting.

We all know money matters, so keep discussions about finances in check 💰

If you directly ask about someone's salary, or inquire about their home or car ownership,

it can be off-putting, even if it's understandable. It's a conversation to avoid.

Especially in situations like matchmaking services or blind dates where people are of marriageable age,

topics related to assets are sensitive and require extra caution.

Whether it's many or few, past relationships are still sensitive. So why keep asking about them? 💑

Questions like, "How were your past relationships? How did you meet? How did you break up?" should be avoided.

It's best to refrain from asking about past relationships and focus on the present.

Complaining about your workplace is best done with colleagues and kept within the team 😡

While no one is 100% satisfied with their job,

constantly complaining about your company during a first meeting can be incredibly tiring for the other person.

It might give off a negative and generally dissatisfied impression, so be mindful.
