I don't usually go on a first date without knowing the guy pretty well beforehand...so, I guess just how we click is all that I am really paying attention to.
What are the most important questions you need answered?
What information about yourself are you willing to share?
What do you need to know (besides if there's chemistry) to decide if you're open to a second date?
Well, chemistry was the most important thing for me. Did he make my heart beat fast and did I get butterflies looking at him, did I undress him with my eyes already?
Secondly of course, it was important to have things in common, and I would look if the conversation is going smoothly, did he make me laugh or provoked some emotions in me or is he a real bore? Usually I could tell those things right away.
Wow, I've never really been on a first date and the very thought of it is frightening because I don't like to romantically pursue strangers. I've always gone out with people who I was already friends with who already know about me, and the romance just became a natural step.
But I guess I'd like to learn whether the person has a criminal record, an ounce of loyalty, chemistry with me, and whether he's adventurous.
I would be willing to share nothing very vulnerable about myself, and to be quite honest, we couldn't share more than just an idle chat between strangers or whatever comes into play.
I guess I'd decide on a second date if on the first date I felt comfortable and desired more time with the person.
I like to know what is really important in life to this person, their values, how they treat people (especially those they are not trying to impress), their emotional maturity, sense of humor, whether we also share other interests and how well we click as a team.
When I was single, I never went into a first date with any preconceived notions about what to ask, what i wanted to know, or what I'd tell. I think when you meet a person whom you have good rapport with and who you are comfortable with, things naturally come out in conversation. I think that's half the problem with people and why they never enjoy dating. They go into first dates with way high expectations, way high ideas about how it should go and don't know how to let down their guard and just be themselves.

If I've made the decision to go out on a date with him, then I already know the basics. Other than that, I'm just seeing if we enjoy each others company. I don't do blind dates.
Civilized, polite, with plenty of money. To take the initiative to talk, care about each other.
