If we're compatible with each other, and also to just have fun.

I want to see how they react when I put on my robe and wizard hat

School of magic? unless you were a grander wizard then expected.

Vibe check

See if there is a spark

First date is for vibe checks and making sure she's not a fascist.

On a first date I'm looking for common interests, and gauging how easy the conversation flows. Do we feel natural together? Does the time go too fast and do I not want it to end? I want to establish a connection on a first date and leave with us both wanting more.

To know they're not a bigot of some kind.

My bad for starting a fight.

I'm going to dump out what I feel they need to know of me. The first sign I get that says "oh...uh...that's nice I guess" either verbally or by expression, then they're gone. I won't try to say things on purpose to get that reaction, but I'm going to lay it down my expectations and I expect to hear their expectations and see if it will go anywhere from there.

Genuine laughter. If we’re relaxed and laughing most of the time, I want to be around that person again :)

I want the Chaos Emeralddss of course!!

I think the first date is exchanging dick pics and stats on grindr. Engagement is when we first hook up. Getting hitched is the 2nd hookup.

[-] IWW4@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago

just a good time.

Anal (want, not expect, right?)

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

I give oral first for obvious reasons buddy guy.

Dont really know because I have been on a single first date and it was with my at the time best friend who I am now engaged to so that isn't exactly a standard situation

We watched a movie in my bedroom for the first one and the second one was a multi mile hike On a mountain with no cell Service so neither would be a normal early in relationship activities

First date is to see if they can carry a conversation and hold their hooch.

Second date is to see if they can cook.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Second date is to see if they can cook.

To make sure they're on your level, right?

Right?

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 7 points 1 day ago

Obviously, since the second date is also where they see if I can cook.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Now im imagining your 2nd date cook off competition with categories to win and judges to score it.
