The Dating Without Drama First Date Quiz
Not sure how the first date went? Feel like maybe it was good, but you're just not sure? What better way to take a little quiz to judge how it went.
Try Paige Parker's Dating Without Drama first date quiz. It's pretty quick and easy and will give you a pretty clear picture how the date went from your perspective.
Jot down the answer that best applies to your date:
1. When the date began, you were...
a) Excited to see him; looking forward to the night
ahead.
b) Nervous and anxious, but in a good way.
c) Calm, cool and collected... come to think of it,
maybe a little TOO calm.
d) Wondering why you agreed to go out with him in the
first place and antsy to get the heck outta there.
2. Let's talk appearance. How did your guy look?
a) Fine. He was clearly showered and wearing clean
clothes, which is all that really matters to you.
b) Hot with a capital "H." He must have put a lot of
effort into getting ready for the date, which you
noticed - and appreciated.
c) Hmmm.... you didn't actually notice. You were too
busy planning your escape route.
d) Like a slob. His shirt was wrinkly and his hair was
doing that "bed-head" thing. But maybe that's the
look he was going for?
3. How about the date he planned? Were you impressed?
a) You had a drink in the neighborhood/grabbed dinner
in a low-key restaurant/etc. It didn't matter to you
that it wasn't extravagant, you were just enjoying
his company.
b) LAME - O! Bowling/A Movie/A Coffeehouse?!? He couldn't
have picked anything you'd be LESS interested in if he
tried.
c) Perfect. He knew that Thai food was your favorite,
and picked an amazing restaurant you'd never been to
before. You were blown away.
d) The date that HE planned?!? More like the date that
YOU planned! Well it would have been great if the
guy you were out with actually had a PULSE.
4. Now for the most important part: Conversation.
How'd that go?
a) Like...pulling...teeth.
b) Amazing. You talked about everything, and by the end
you were finishing each other's sentences like you'd
known each other for years.
c) You did most of the talking, but he was probably just
nervous. Hopefully he'll reciprocate more on the second
date.
d) The conversation flowed, but based on what you talked
about you're not sure you have much in common with one
another.
5) At the end of the night, how did you feel about the
possibility of a goodnight kiss?
a) Not exactly sure. You were hoping you'd have a "gut
feeling" in the moment if he tried to kiss you.
b) Heck no! You weren't letting that freak anywhere near
your lips. He's lucky you made it through dinner.
c) You were totally into the idea, hoping he'd try to
smooch you at the end of the night.
d) Goodnight kiss? You were making out after the second
round of drinks...and that was BEFORE dinner!
Scoring:
1. a = 6 b = 4 c = 2 d = 0
2. a = 4 b = 6 c = 0 d = 2
3. a = 4 b = 2 c = 6 d = 0
4. a = 0 b = 6 c = 4 d = 2
5. a = 2 b = 0 c = 6 d = 4
Now add your points from each question. If your total is:
22 - 30 ..... Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! This was a
great first date, at least from your point of
view. I don't need to tell you that if he asks
you on a second date, you should say yes!
14 - 21 ..... Potential dateability. There are so many factors
at play on a first date that can affect how you
see someone - his nerves, your nerves, unrealistic
expectations, preconceived notions, just to name a
few - so if you find yourself still interested in
this guy now that the night is over, take it as a
very good sign. This guy's got potential.
0 - 13 ..... Don't settle. Be honest with yourself - he didn't
grab your attention, hold your interest, or float
your boat, so don't waste any more of your time on
him. There are other great guys out there to focus
your energy on.
How you did you do? Did he pass in your eyes? If you'd like to find out what he thought, you can download Paige Parker's ebook for Part 2 of the quiz.
