Tips for Second Date Conversations

At Muslims4Marriage.com, users seeking a relationship can view others’ profiles and message those who they feel may be a good match. Muslims4Marriage members regularly meet for dating as well as potential long-term relationships.

The second date can be a key moment in a new relationship. The first impression has come and gone, and both parties begin to truly get to know each other. To paint yourself in the best possible light, experts suggest showing an interest in the other person. If you remember a particular element of your first-date conversation, bringing it up can show your potential partner that you listen well and remember things about them.

The second date should also involve learning new things about the other person and offering information about yourself. You can get the process going by thinking of things that you need to know about a potential partner, and by asking questions to get the answers. Asking the questions in a genuine and interested manner can keep the process from feeling like an interrogation. Similarly, by offering new information about yourself, you help to spark the other person’s interest and make the individual feel your genuine interest in him or her.

About the Role of Marriage in Islam

Muslims4Marriage, an online dating site, helps single Muslims find partners and friends of like mindset and faith. To help users find compatible matches, Muslims4Marriage enables free profile browsing.

The Islamic faith holds marriage in high esteem. The Quran, the holy book of the faith, teaches that Allah created men and women so that both would have the peace and fulfillment of companionship. Marriage enables two adults to enter into this kind of mutually enriching relationship, remaining true to Allah’s command of loyalty between spouses. The bearing of children also plays a key role in preserving the sacredness of marriage intimacy, as the family unit remains the building block of society in Islam.

Marriage also helps Muslim men and women to preserve their modesty by allowing them an outlet for sexual desires. Without such an outlet, the faith teaches, a person’s desires can take control and put his or her human dignity at risk. For this reason, Islam recommends marriage for all adults but stresses its importance for those who may otherwise be tempted into promiscuity.
