    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 pirated 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

    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.

      What if they’re bigots against bad ideologies? Like saying conservatives that still vote for Republicans in the US are all despicable morons at best?

          Yes, and current voting republicans that support Trump et. al. have proven to be beyond the pale in what they support.

          It is YOU who is too tolerant if you think these hateful piles of filth are not going too far.

            I never stated any level of support for them, so I have no idea why you’re directing those comments at me.

              You’re right, which is why I quickly removed my downvote for your comment (and will now upvote because I am a proponent of the paradox of tolerance).

              Though the general sentiment remains that US Republicans are a perfect example of where the paradox of tolerance should kick in… and kick in as a freaking emergency stop for any species remotely willing to call itself intelligent at that…

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