If you were stuck on a 10-hour road trip with a new date, what three conversational topics would you use to truly get to know them?


First of all, would anyone want to be stuck on a 10 hour road trip, with a new date?
Well this was what happened with my new date!
But I hoped she would love our date together, and not feel stuck with me in any way.
We set of on our date at 10am, on a lovely morning in summer, with just an inkling on how to spend our day together.
I was driving to a tourist attraction in the countryside, so we managed with small talk while appreciating the scenery.
We arrived at our destination, and we went for a coffee.
Our conversation flowed easily, because it was the perfect place to go, with a display of art for sale, and a botanical garden, and amazingly they were big interests for her.
We then drove through the countryside to a place for lunch at another tourist attraction, but my date needed to do some navigating, because I didn't know the exact route, and this was fun, with my date coping easily with this task.
The meal went well, talking about her interesting choice of meal, which was a different variety of seafood, and the popular venue.
We again had plenty of interesting things to see, and talk about, because I took her the most scenic route back home.
I suggested we went directly home, because we'd been out together for a long time, and previously we hadn't know each other, and I hadn't a clue what to talk about before our date.
Fortunately there was never a dull silent moment in our time together, and what could have been a disastrous first date all went well.
Gosh I’d probably go through everything. Politics, family, dreams, regrets, preferred styles of relationships, current self-diagnosis, etc
Whoa... 10 hours?
Well sex and sexual topics would be pretty prominent and hopefully we can stop for some fun to make the ten hours more interesting.
But before and after that... I lile philosophy so I like to get people to think about deep but hypothetical questions. Ha.. I'd prob steal a few ideas from you that you post on here 😄
And relationships. It's pretty normal for two people to end up talking about past relationships.
I'd ask them three key questions.
Do you prefer a straight or bendy road?
Do you prefer to travel in company or alone?
What matters most to you? Journey or destination?

10 hours is a long time to be stuck especially with someone you’re just getting to know. If that shit gets awkward you’re both trapped. But okay. Take the risk.
Be genuine. Talk about passions. Hobbies. Just let it flow naturally.
I’d go with childhood memories, biggest life lessons, and dream adventures — learned that tip from Modern Success, works like a charm for deep convos.
I would talk about our shared experiences, crazy relatives, and the local NHL team.
How was your childhood. How was your adolescence. How will you die.
Sexual preferences, rock and roll and quantum physics.
Job, plans, views, daily affairs
Sex , profession , family
