First Dates Can be Rough – Here’s a Sweet Way to Get That Second Date

First dates can be a little awkward, to say the least, but if you think there MIGHT be more to the person you're out with and want to give it another try, make sure you ORDER DESSERT.

I doubt it takes too much convincing for you to order dessert anyway, right? But, according to Purdue University, eating dessert can SAVE a bad date.

Purdue University found that a good way to get a second date with someone is to order dessert on the first date, because the brain has similar reactions to eating something sweet and falling in love. They both release dopamine into the brain and activate reward centers in a similar way. When you order dessert on a date, it can activate those romantic feelings and make the other person like you more than they would've without dessert.

So, something sweet to cleanse your date pallet, might just lead to a second date. Unless the date is just absolutely horrendous, then that huge fried dessert pictured above can't even save it.
