You’d think that debating politics with someone you barely know would make for a disaster, but it actually boosts your chances for a
second date by 91 percent. It doesn’t even matter what your opinion is — as long as you have one and can express it respectfully. Being able to discuss a controversial issue with a level head proves that you’re kind, tolerant, flexible, and empathetic — all qualities that are pure gold to a potential partner.
