First dates can be a hodgepodge of excitement, nerves, fears, hope, possibilities, & uncertainties – they are pretty much like an interview.

How I Knew That Ethan Was “The One”
Starting at age 14, there were a couple things that I just wouldn’t miss–new hallmark movies, a quiet moment to read a novel, and opportunities to hear someone’s love story.
