Key facts on a first date 🤓

Is he a vissionary?

I believe that the first date and the following ones are not the ideal time to talk about personal matters. What I mean is, the topics should be more casual, about daily life, preferences, and quirks, but not about serious or very intimate subjects. Obviously, it’s also nice to talk about interests, purpose, ministry, relevant goals, and I think through that you can learn a lot about the other person’s relationship with God.

Over coffee ☕ ever since you're being closer to Jesus. What is one testimony you can share?

Are they conservative or liberal? Tells you a lot about their values

where she stands on doctrine and how much she's submitted to my King's words.

Oddly enough, one of those questions would now be, are you a flat earther?

I've only been on 3 dates .. and now at 46 .. so not many dates lol

Go to a place where you can be at peace and truly connect where the person you care about feels safe and heard.

I don't ask any questions on the first date that are deep... I may be wrong but I just want to let it flow and suss out the personality mainly

Being that I would have already asked him all the most important and essential questions before even saying yes to a date. I'd then let the date flow, see how it goes, how his energy is. And hopefully we start talking about dreams, visions, goals, and passions, and see if they are compatible and if we are able to walk together, and run this race called life together on that basis.

I would like to know about future plans, if he want to be a husband and a father, faith in God, and if he has been married.

Besides the great questions about spiritual and values questions, I try to ask early about Allergies, especially food allergies 🤔 ... Not a disqualification but I don't want to make a bad mistake unknowingly

The relationship with christ and the church

Essential to know after a first date? Do we share social values? Do we share a sense of humor? Is our faith life compatible? Those three are very important to me.

Their salvation journey.

In advance of a first date, I’d want to have some idea of their faith, hobbies and whether they’ve been married and/or have kids. These should flow from messages or convo at church. On a first date, questions would be along the lines of: 1. What do you feel God is calling you to? 2. Where do you see yourself in 5 years time (i.e. location, career, family, aspirations)? 3. What spiritual gifts (prophecy, discernment, healing etc) do you have or desire? (Gives a better idea of their faith!)

It’s hard to think about that I would ask as I’ve never been on a date before. But I guess I would want to know their qualities and about their Christian walk x

I would definitely want to know their relationship with Jesus.

We need to swap the short versions of our testimonies for sure. Gotta know if we’re on the same page. In addition, I would ask about how he is actively partnering with the Lord and using his gifts to minister to others.

Questions go for myself too but I’d like to know Why are you single and what are you looking for in a long term relationship?

How does your faith impact your day to day life?

About myself none unless she asks but definitely what Anani mentioned is one fact. The other would be what is the major struggle in sin that my date is fighting against.

I don't know if in a first date but one of the first questions I do when I talk with someone in this App is: How did you meet Jesus? 😊

It’s hard for me to even think about what I would want to know about someone after a first date when I can’t even get a date in the first place… 🤣
