About this listen

Let’s just face it: First dates are awkward.

Sorry to break it to you, but romantic meet-cutes are a thing of the past; swipes are in, and hope is out! Just kidding. Sort of.

But do we continue to put ourselves out there? Yes. And will we be willing to move past the possibility of a disastrous encounter with a stranger? Of course.

Call it eternal hope, romanticism, or straight-up foolishness, our human need for connection is strong and the possibility of meeting a potential soulmate will make us do senseless things.

Meeting someone for the first time after merely seeing photos or exchanging a few words is bound to be daunting. For one thing, we inevitably construct a whole persona based on the person’s photos, choice of vocabulary, and communication type.

Through attempting to find a suitable mate, we assess every swipee’s potential and unconsciously create an entire pre and post-date narrative.

That’s where Swipe to Play comes in.

Asking questions is one of the best ways to get to know someone.

Choosing the right questions is tricky, so I’ve got you covered with:

  • Smooth openings: Ice breakers
  • Psyche Digs: Personality types, love languages and intellectual compatibility
  • Cross Examination: Fill in the blank, Lightning round, Quick fire interest quiz
  • Unloading baggage: Diving into dating history, family and upbringing
  • Sunday Roast: Revealing lovable quirks
  • Flirt & Dirt: Naughty and offbeat questions
  • Just Don’t: Things you should never ask on a first date
  • Your foolproof getaway plan: With a focus on open-ended questions for a more genuine dive into a stranger’s soul, these conversation openers will relieve the pressure of first meets and create a playful premise for your first date.

Find your human with these 99 witty questions that will have you laughing, blushing, and avoiding many a first-date faux pas.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I’m so glad I’m an old duffer. Terms like “speed dating” are alien to me, and, frankly, I wouldn’t want to be a young person embroiled in today’s dating scene. But if you are, “99 Questions to Break the Ice” is absolutely mandatory material. This splendid, entertaining, quirky, and informative book by Yasmeen D. Gardens is just plain fun as you discover each other’s IQ, personality type, and even your love languages. I loved the section on uncovering dating history, as well as learning about the kind of family and upbringing they drag to the date with them.
How many times when I was younger did I suffer from “foot in mouth” disease? I’d ask something totally inappropriate that slammed the doors shut. It was already agonizing to get up the courage to even ask for a date, then to blow it with the wrong question or untimely remark; well, humiliating is the word that comes to mind.
This little gem of a book is an absolute must-have, must-listen for anyone in the dating scene. The great narration by Poppy Royana and the music just sweeten the pot.
Also, the PDF runs about 70 pages and contains everything in black and white, making a terrific cheat sheet on your way to a first date. And couples would enjoy listening together, I believe, and have a lot of fun answering the questions, laughing, and getting to know each other even better.
You will love this book!

In the early stages of dating, we can use all the help we can get, and the same old gets boring, so I love the interesting topic suggestions in this book. While on your date or during the chatting phases, you can play it like a game or read through to give yourself conversation starters.

I also appreciate how the author maintains a conversational tone throughout, as opposed to a stiffly written Self-Help book, giving advice and ideas.

In a nutshell, I would suggest to a buddy some novel ideas!

GREAT BOOK

The author has a great tone throughout, and I had so much fun listening to this audiobook. If anything, I feel more prepared to make small talk and now have so many ice breaker ideas. I also loved the section on the getaway plan! If you are currently in the dating world, you will love this audiobook.

Fun! Fun! Fun!
