Celebrate the holidays with food, gifts, and fun but don’t talk politics on dates.
Political discussions are more intense than they have been in years. With the country divided, a war on, a president that is either loved or hated, political discussions are more dangerous to a new relationship than they ever have been. Just 15 years ago people beginning to date didn’t concern themselves with the political affiliation of their dates. But these days politics is a hot button for many people and it can sink a new relationship faster than the iceberg did the Titanic.
