Hey, Rose, questions can arise naturally and be thought about beforehand, too!
It sounds like you're saying that you don't want it actually acknowledged on a date that you're looking to see if you're a good match? Don't you think it's a good idea to find out about your date "how he is"? I think you and I might be thinking of two different approaches to dating, and maybe part of that is cultural. I'm thinking about a person who consciously wants to create a loving, long-term, mutually beneficial relationship with velocity, and wants to be powerful and effective in doing so. This may be very American of me, though!
