Q: A new study says that if you do this on a first date, you build trust and are more likely to get a second date?

A: Order the same food as your date

 

The Secret to a Good First Date Is Ordering the Same Food?

Here’s the secret to a good first date.  Let the other person order their food first . . . and even if it sounds TERRIBLE, order the exact same thing.

A new study out of the University of Chicago found that when people on first dates ordered the same food, it INSTANTLY built trust and camaraderie . . . and increases the odds that they’ll go on a second date.

And you can use that trick in other scenarios, too . . . like if you’re out to a business lunch with someone you want to impress, or when you’re meeting your significant other’s parents for the first time.
