Dating Game Questions

From LoveToKnow Dating

Dating game questions are fun and entertaining. Whether if you're having a party or going on a first date, you can use these questions to find out if someone is worth getting to know better.

The Dating Game

In the original The Dating Game, the bachelorette would ask three contestants a series of questions. The contestant, who answered the questions most favorably to her, would be picked and called the winner of the date. The show would usually send the couple off on a getaway as their prize.

Playing the Dating Game at Home or on a Date

You can set up The Dating Game at home when having a party, but choosing three people and placing them behind a wall or draped sheet so the bachelorette (or you can use a bachelor) does not see them. After each contestant has answered the chosen questions, the asker can then pick his/her date (the person who gave the answers he/she liked best).

If you want to use the following dating game questions on a first date, choose the ones that are most important and interesting to you. Ask them when there is a lull in conversation!
