24 Conversation Starters for the Awkward First Date

Summary: A great conversation will make or break a first date and can certainly alleviate any awkwardness. But how do you make that happen?

First date coming up? Make sure you’re not caught in an awkward one with these 24 conversation starters!

First dates are awkward. There’s no way getting around it even if it’s a date with someone you’ve known forever. Getting over that initial hump where you feel self-conscious you’re not sure what the other person is really thinking can be difficult, especially if you don’t know what to talk about. A great conversation will make or break a first date and can certainly alleviate any awkwardness. But how do you make that happen?

While I don’t recommend bringing a list of questions with you, I would advise you to look over this list and remember a few questions for your next date. If the conversation starts to drift to awkward silence, ask one of these to help loosen the tension and get to know your date a little better.
