Study finds how long your first date should be

Planning a first date? Make sure you have an escape route. More than four in five Americans believe dinner dates are the hardest to get away from, especially if it isn’t going well.

A survey examined the experiences of 2,000 actively dating Americans over the age of 21 and revealed that while more than half (56%) tend to go for dinner and a movie as a first date, other top choices are more flee-friendly.

Half of respondents prefer casual drinks, followed by coffee (43%) or going to a market or picnic (34%).
