One thing I admire about single men is the fact that they usually screen their dates so well. I’m not talking google searches or background checks. I have male friends who will size someone up and take notice of how she carries herself. They also ask good questions before asking her out.

This screening process can weed out a lot of incompatible, unstable people. Why don’t more women adopt this protocol? I remember asking a friend why she even took the number of one guy when he showed so many signs of being a bum.

How do you screen your dates beforehand? Do you find out more about them from family or friends? Do you have a series of questions that generally let you know if someone is going to have potential?
