First Date Chemistry Signs: How to Know If There Was a Spark
A good first date does not always feel like fireworks. Sometimes chemistry is calm, curious and easy. The best clue is how your body and mind feel before, during and after the date.
In this guide

Laughter feels natural rather than forced.
The goodbye has warmth: eye contact, a smile, or a clear wish to meet again.
After the date, the follow-up feels respectful and not confusing.
