The second date is your first chance to actually get to know the other person. On a first date, youre so focused on impressing the person across from you that you forget to actually pay attention. The second date is your first chance to do something you actually enjoy.

How long after a first date should a second date be?

The first several dates should be spaced close together in an effort to keep the momentum going. The second date should not take place more than two weeks after the first date. If the first date went exceptionally well, the best thing you can do is lock in a second date soon after.

What does a 2nd date mean?

Heres the good part; the second date means less awkwardness than the first. Primarily, however, it means you get the chance to let your guard down a little bit and get to know your date better. Note that getting a second date is not a chance to interrogate the other person; so a second date is expected to be fun.
