You didn’t want to rush back home

Marlena Cole, a relationship expert, suggests that among the most obvious signs of a great first date, one is that you did not feel like it was being dragged. Both of you were having fun and trying to be with each other for a little longer, so your date ended up longer than you had planned. So, if you had already been talking for a couple of hours and they are figuring out where to go next, they’re most likely having fun too.

There was plenty of eye-contact

There are reasons why eye contact is romanticized so much, and we believe in all of them. If you find yourself looking into each other’s eyes often, it’s a subtle hint of romantic energy between you both. A survey conducted by Psychological Science has shown that when you have a sexual tendency for the other person, your eyes go straight to their body, vis a vis when you have a romantic tendency for the other person, you’re more attracted to their face. Also, eye-contacts prove that you were comfortable with them and interested in them and that you were not shying away.

The conversation was two-way

We’ve all met people who talk and don’t give us a chance to speak. Yeah, well, it’s irritating.

But if you were both equally involved in the conversation and you were more than keen to listen to them, we’d say it’s a good sign. Conversations obviously play a key role here. So, if you enjoyed the small talks and the deeper ones with them, and you feel like getting to know more about them, what’s stopping you?
