The key to breaking the ice and having meaningful conversations.

Tonight, is the first date you’ve been looking forward to, but you’re nervous about how to break the ice. If the thought of awkward silence over appetizers is frightening, I recommend picking up the Date Deck.

We’ve all been there, especially in the age of online dating, but now you can simply choose a card and get the conversation flowing. The questions are fun but appropriate to ask in a crowded restaurant. There are five categories to choose from, and I recommend starting at the beginning working through the deck.

Now for those in new relationships looking to build a deeper connection, the intimacy deck is for you. With six categories and 150 cards, this will help you get to know each other on a meaningful level. I had a blast taking turns reading the cards with my partner over wine and dessert.
