"My now-husband had this grand idea for our first physical date(we were long distance)—a treasure hunt through the city. Each clue led us to a place with a special conversation memory. I thought it was adorable until I discovered the treasure was a love letter! I mean, who does that? It worked. I couldn't help but fall for the guy who planned a whole adventure just for me." - Sophia.

"I once went on a date with a man I met online who seemed charming and mature. He suggested meeting at a wine bar, where we enjoyed a pleasant conversation over a glass of wine. As the evening progressed, he proposed continuing our night with dinner, which sounded lovely. However, to my surprise, he took me to a cheap family-style steakhouse. When the bill arrived, he casually informed the waitress that I would cover it, seemingly under the impression that I should foot the bill for dinner because he paid for the wine. It was such a disappointing and unclassy move on his part that I knew I wouldn't see him again." - Nicole.

"I once went on a first date with a guy who suggested we go to a comedy club. As we settled into our seats, the comedian began interacting with the audience, and somehow, my date became the prime target for their jokes. Every punchline was aimed directly at them, from mistaken identity to embarrassing childhood stories. My date took it all in stride, and by the night's end, we were both in stitches from laughter. I couldn't help but admire their ability to roll with the comedic punches. Three years later, we are still together; I love a man with a sense of humor!"- Cathryn
