First Dates Staff Spill The Tea

February 24, 2022

Ever wondered if that bar tender is judging you on your date?

We sip tea with First Dates Australia staff James, Luka, Giacomo and Ama. And they brought tips!

What’s your drink of choice on a first date?

Giacomo: Extra dry gin martini. Not only on a first date, but also on the second!

What are some first dates dos and don’ts?

James:

  • DO: Dress smart and look sharp. First impressions count.
  • DON’T: Don’t be rude to staff. No one wants a “Karen” on a date!
  • DO: Be interested in your date. Don’t make it all about you.
  • DON’T: Don’t fire endless questions at your date. It’s not a job interview.

What are the best first date talk topics?

Ama:

  • Learn about each other’s family and friends.
  • Travel experiences – Where have you been? Where’s your dream destination? etc.
  • Ambitions – Where do you see yourself in a few years? Work out if your goals are aligned.

Do pick up lines work?

Luka:

I once used a line from Friends to pick up a guy. He told me that Luka was a really cool name, so I told him that if he liked that, he should hear my phone number… I’m still cringing to this day.
