Good for you! My best advice is not to overthink it.
Too many people get so caught up in their list of conversation starters that they prevent conversation from flowing naturally. It's nice to have a few icebreakers picked out before your date, but try to only use them during lulls in the conversation.
Here are a few of my favorite first-date conversation starters:
>If you could live in any fictional world, which would you pick and why?
>What's something mundane you look forward to every week?
>What’s something about you that most people wouldn’t gather from a first impression?
>What’s a question you’ve always wanted to be asked on a date?
These will likely be fresh icebreakers for you and your date. Each of these serves a unique purpose, but they all focus on creating connection and showing curiosity while keeping it upbeat and fun!
