		<description>One of my friend&#039;s favorites is a specialty chocolate shop - the ones that have everything on the menu made from chocolate. Why? As she said to me - who doesn&#039;t like chocolate, there&#039;s always something to talk about, it&#039;s light and fun and you don&#039;t have to be there for ages if you don&#039;t want to. Mind you if you&#039;re a diabetic, we might need to rethink that one!</description>

		<description>Great suggestions!  Here&#039;s another one for you: Go ice skating.  I know someone (now married) who swore by this as her screening method of choice.  She said most guys she knew weren&#039;t comfortable on skates, so it allowed her to immediately assess how a potential partner handled stressful situations.  Public humiliation, too, I would imagine. :)  While I always thought this was a little extreme, I suppose she was right that it was a good way to quickly find out who had a sense of humor, who was willing to try new things, who was patient, and who could accept a woman outmaneuvering him. :)

And here&#039;re two first dates to avoid: movies and concerts.  They defeat the whole purpose of getting to know someone.</description>

		<description>the dessert date is a great, low-pressure way to get to know someone in an innocent and hedonistic way.  brooklyn ice cream factory and a walk down by the piers is about as good as a nyc first date can get!</description>

		<description>I wish there were a lot of touristy things to do where I live... which is the down side to living in small Southern town.  For people like me who don&#039;t have that option, coffee or drinks is an awesome idea.  I&#039;ve never been a fan of catching a movie for a first date.  It leaves no room to talk or learn about each other.  And isn&#039;t that the point of a first date?</description>
