Avoid brunch dates: daytime settings kill romantic conversation

Brunch and similar daytime dates run long and create the wrong atmosphere. When it is still bright outside, people are generally less in the mood for deeper, more personal conversations, including topics like sex, which Fabrizio Rausa argues you need to bring up at some point during the date. That does not mean bringing it up in a shameless or weird way. It means being a normal human being, asking why she is single, and letting the conversation naturally move toward more intimate territory. A daytime brunch setting works against that kind of momentum.
