5 First Date Questions that Build Chemistry!

Badoo recently released a survey taking a look at how couples realize chemistry on first dates. I love online dating surveys as I feel like it’s accurate non-performative data that you can get some great insights into.

• 62% say it’s because they feel pressure to ask a good question or kickstart a robust conversation

• 30% of daters have experienced a first date in which they’ve not been asked a single question
