1. What\u2019s your favorite scene from your favorite book or movie?
\n<\/strong>Talking about mass media and pop culture can clue you in to similar interests and worldviews. \u201cBooks, movies, and music all transmit powerful messages of hope or emotion,\u201d says Hogan. \u201cIf you have radically different preferences, there may be some fundamental differences between the way the two of you look at the world.\u201d <\/strong>But asking your date to name his or her favorite scene can help you distill what\u2019s important to him or her beyond just genre. <\/p>\n

2. What do you love about your job?
\n<\/strong>The standard, \u201cWhat do you do?\u201d is a closed question that doesn\u2019t reveal much about a person other than a job title.<\/strong> But if you phrase the career question a bit differently, you can delve into your date\u2019s likes and dislikes; reveal his or her strengths; see how he or she handles conflict; and find out how happy this person is with life overall. <\/strong>Think about the different impressions you\u2019ll form if your date answers the question, \u201cKnowing that I\u2019m helping people fulfill their dream\u201d versus \u201cDeciding what to order for lunch!\u201d <\/p>\n

3. What\u2019s your definition of a relationship?
\n<\/strong>Granted, it takes a bit of build-up to ask this question (usually, once you begin discussing your dating histories, you can slip this one in), but it\u2019s worth asking. Does your date want to be wined and dined, or are you both looking for a 50\/50 relationship? It\u2019s too soon to know what this specific potential relationship will look like, but a question like this lets you share your expectations and fundamental beliefs.<\/strong> \u201cI like to ask this question early on, because I\u2019ve found that some women I\u2019ve dated didn\u2019t know what they wanted out of our relationship,\u201d says Mario Webb of Ft. Walton Beach, FL. \u201cThey came into it just hoping things work out without telling me what they expect. Needless to say, things haven\u2019t worked out.\u201d And if your date\u2019s answer is outside the range of what you consider acceptable, you\u2019ve saved yourself future heartbreak by finding out before you fall for him or her. <\/p>\n

4. If money were no object, what would you do with your life?
\n<\/strong>This tried-and-true icebreaker showcases your date\u2019s hopes, dreams, and regrets \u2014 topics that often remain untouched by even serious romantic partners. The answers can range from a desire to travel to going back to school to learning how to play the violin. Two buttoned-up stockbrokers might discover they both share a secret longing to be athletes or a shared devotion to public service. Your date\u2019s response will help clue you in to common goals and interests that go beyond what you do on a day-to-day basis. <\/p>\n

5. Will you share an embarrassing moment with me?
\n<\/strong>This fun question is great to ask when a date has gotten a little tense or quiet, because it reveals both details of your date\u2019s history and his or her character. Just know that you may have to share an awkward experience first in order to make your date feel comfortable. \u201cOne of the great things is that our humanity is a bonding thing,\u201d says Hogan. \u201cOur ability to laugh at ourselves is critical in a budding relationship.\u201d So make it clear that you\u2019re not looking for dirt on that plagiarism incident in 11th grade, but rather something goofy, like the time you drove a golf cart into the water, installed a chandelier upside-down and so forth. <\/p>\n

By asking these questions and considering the answers, you\u2019ll gain valuable insights onto your date \u2014 and know whether the two of you are likely to click on future get-togethers.

Dating is like interviewing. You have to find the perfect match. I cannot tell you how many great men have asked me out after interviewing me for jobs! As a matter of fact, I think that is the best way to meet a quality man regardless of what the “experts” say. The hell with internet dating. Don’t waste your time on that nonsense! I never had to. Be creative and think out of the box. I personally think that alot of these so-called employers married or not are listing jobs on Craigslist and such just for the “thrill” of interviewing beautiful girls with a background suitable to their taste anyway. In other words, they are fishing for the woman of their dreams to either work for them or to date or both. How many times have you seen a job post that requested a PHOTO or WEB PAGE\/FACEBOOK ACCOUNT? Or the $25 AD will state must love rock music, play an instrument, be an athlete, love photography, have an in-depth knowledge of the fine arts, etc. and the job is an assistant to a banker! And the great thing is that YOU are in the driver’s seat because the Interviewer can be googled! That way you can tell whether or not he is hot enough and is worth your valuable time. Interview for jobs you don’t really need or want but focus in on interviewing for the type of man you want. For example, if you are interested in Medicine and would love to be with a Doctor, interview for a job with a Doctor’s Office or Medical Group. Who knows, you may get an offer you can’t refuse in more ways than one! Get it? This secret is just between us, right? Because I know that alot of women married or not are going to want to kill me for this! That is how I met my current man.<\/em><\/strong> He really lucked out because for $25 he got a great employee and he got me! He managed to kill two birds with one stone all for the bargain price of $25!<\/p>\n

<\/em><\/strong>P.S. Wear something classy but form fitting and somewhat sexy and black made of natural fiber. Short skirt if you have great legs and high heel black leather shoes with black sheer satin panty hose. Wear your hair down or pulled back and wear elegant jewelry. Good luck!
