First date questions

First dates can be so awkward sometimes. If you've ever run out of something to say on a date, msn.com suggests asking these five questions:

1. What's your favorite scene from your favorite book or movie?

2. What do you love about your job?

3. What's your definition of a relationship?

4. If money were no object, what would you do with your life?

5. Will you share an embarrassing moment with me?

These questions get at the root of what first date questions should be doing: revealing your date's taste and values without being too personal, according to the article.

I've never really had a certain list of questions I felt I needed to ask a date, aside from the usual career and career goal type questions. But I can see how going into a date with revealing questions could help weed out poor matches a lot quicker.

Do any of you have a question or questions you make sure to always ask your date to gauge your compatibility? What are they? What does your question reveal about the other person?
