I think dates should be more like job interviews

[Champ]

First you send an application to whoever you'd like to date and if he/she likes what they see you'll be invited for a "date". You come in with your best looking outfit, trying to make a solid first impression. You answer questions your date will ask, some might be a little tricky. Your date will go over qualifacations, skills, your relationship history, etc. Some dates may require a criminal background check and/or a drug test. This should narrow the playing field somewhat, I find it more effective then simply going for a date which is something I never do. I'll hang out with someone but dates always seem a bit awkward.
