My first gay date was everything i imagined and more

The ritual of first dates can often feel repetitive and lackluster. There are only so many ways to ask a version of so what are your interests? But asking questions is important. There is no perfect roadmap for how to crush a first date, but the number one thing you can do to at least ensure a baseline decent experience is ask your date s about themselves!

You can ask them word for word or use them to riff and come up with your own against-the-grain questions. For some of these, you might be wondering what makes them specifically gay. Hope that helps! How did you meet your best friend? What are your favorite things to do on your days off?

What did you do today before this date? What was the last thing that made you laugh? What kind of cake do you like to have for your birthday? Or if not cake, what do you like to have? Do you collect anything? What are your favorite qualities in other people? Do you keep a journal?

Books, movies, television, music, etc.

Who is your celebrity crush? Who was your first queer celebrity crush? What album could you listen to on repeat for an entire day? What queer actor should play you in a biopic about your life? If your life were a television show, what would be the theme song? How many films from the Autostraddle Encyclopedia of Lesbian Cinema have you seen?

This question provides a built-in activity! You can scroll through the list together! And also make plans to watch some movies together! Want to be memorable? Ask some of these hyperspecific, open-ended, or just downright weird in a fun way questions! Treat your date conversation like a creative writing prompt!

Have you ever seen a ghost or experienced a haunting? Do you have any stories about cryptids?
