If you're wondering what the best first-date idea is that will lead to a long-term relationship, you are in luck. PlentyOfFish surveyed more than 400 former users in the U.S. who married partners they met on the app to get the answer for us!
Between August 16-20, 2018, they performed the survey and the results aren't all the surprising to be honest.
“It’s important to pick a first-date location that encourages conversation,” Kate MacLean, resident dating expert at POF, tells Bustle.“Dates that foster conversation will help you get to know someone better and will determine whether or not date #2 is in your future.” She also suggests selecting a location you’ve been to before so you’re relaxed and familiar with your surroundings. “That way, when you’re at ease on a first date, there’s less room for any awkward interactions,” MacLean says.
