Don't Get Into Politics Or Religion
On a first date, it's important to feel out whether or not you and your potential beau have a genuine spark. If it turns out the two of you have a real connection, details about religion and politics will work themselves out later. There's no reason to dismiss someone right away because they might not see eye-to-eye with you on a few things. Even the most made-for-each-other couples don't agree on everything, but if you let these things get in the way during a first date, neither one of you will want to invest time into a second one and. So, since politics and religion are two topics that can get people fired up, it is best not to enter that territory until you are confident that the two of you can have a civil, rational discussion.
