What to say when you are asked a question you don’t want to answer on a first date

What to say when you are asked a questions you don’t want to answer on a first date…. sometimes when we are on a first date we are asked a question we don’t want to answer, and we can feel awkward or not know what to say. I have been matchmaking for over 15 years and some of the feedback I receive is the other person was defensive. This can happen if we are uncomfortable and can happen if we are put on the spot. It is important to remember we have control and can steer the conversation. One thing we could say without putting the other person off is “I am happy to answer those questions another time, but tonight I just want to focus on us and having a good time”
