Conduct & Etiquette
Our Standard
Every member of Billion Dollar Introduction® — clients, candidates, and matches alike — is expected to bring the same discretion, maturity, and integrity to the experience that we bring to our work.
A first date is an introduction, not an interrogation, a therapy session, or a life-planning meeting. These guidelines exist so two people can genuinely get to know each other — without unnecessary pressure, judgment, or emotional intensity getting in the way of a good connection.
First Date Etiquette
1. Keep it light, curious, and enjoyable. The goal of a first date is simple: is there enough natural chemistry and ease to want a second conversation? Come composed, present, and engaged. Ask questions, listen, and let the conversation develop naturally — this is an introduction, not an evaluation.
2. No politics. Politics, political affiliations, elections, and politically charged current events are off-limits for the first few dates. You’re meeting a person, not conducting a compatibility interview. If it comes up, redirect gracefully — your matchmaker can address compatibility separately.
3. No conspiracy theories or polarizing topics. Highly controversial subjects and culture-war debates aren’t appropriate this early. A first date isn’t the place to test someone’s worldview. There will be time for deeper philosophical alignment later, if the relationship progresses.
4. No children or family-planning interrogations. Don’t turn the date into a discussion of kids, fertility, parenting expectations, or marriage timelines. Skip questions like “Do you want kids?”, “When do you want to get married?”, or “Would you move for me?” — these are five-year-plan conversations, not first-date ones. Billion Dollar Introduction® addresses long-term compatibility separately as things progress.
5. No trauma dumping. Past trauma, mental health struggles, major losses, or legal/financial crises shouldn’t be the centerpiece of a first date. Your date isn’t a therapist. Early emotional intensity can create false intimacy and unfair pressure — vulnerability lands better once trust is earned.
6. No ex-history. A brief, natural mention of relationship status is fine. Detailed stories, comparisons, or grievances about former partners are not — give your full attention to the person across from you.
7. No financial interrogations. Income, net worth, and assets aren’t first-date topics. Billion Dollar Introduction® handles financial qualification separately and confidentially — this isn’t a due-diligence meeting.
8. No religious or ideological debates. Respect that beliefs are personal. Don’t use the date to challenge, convert, or interrogate someone’s faith or philosophy. If it comes up naturally, keep it respectful and brief.
9. No comparisons. Never measure your date against an ex, a previous date, or another Billion Dollar Introduction® candidate — and never discuss other members. Every introduction stands on its own.
10. Don’t rush exclusivity. Let attraction and trust build naturally. Don’t pressure for labels, commitment, or future plans early on. Physical and emotional boundaries should always be mutually respected.
11. Two-drink maximum. We expect members to stay composed and self-aware throughout the date. If you drink, do so responsibly — never drink and drive, and always arrange safe transportation home.
12. No premature discussion of physical or sexual chemistry. Conversations before an in-person meeting — by phone, text, or video — should remain warm, respectful, and focused on genuinely getting to know one another. Questions or comments about sexual chemistry, physical intimacy, or bedroom compatibility are not appropriate before two people have even met. This isn’t about prudishness; it’s about discretion. Attraction is discovered in person, not negotiated in advance. Members who raise these topics prematurely may be counseled by their matchmaker, and repeated instances may affect their standing within the network.
What We Do Want You Talking About
Good first-date conversation should create connection and curiosity:
- Travel and favorite destinations
- Food, restaurants, and hobbies
- Music, art, and entertainment
- Career interests (without the financial interrogation)
- Books, movies, and shows
- What makes you happy, and how you spend your time
- Lighthearted goals and aspirations
The objective is simple: leave the date wanting to know more.
Communication Standards
Return calls and texts within a reasonable window: 24 hours on weekdays, 72 hours on weekends or holidays. If you can’t respond fully, a brief acknowledgment with a timeline is appreciated. This applies to communication with both your dates and your matchmaker. Repeated, unexplained non-response may result in removal from our database or revocation of membership.
Business Hours Monday–Thursday: 8:00 AM–5:00 PM EST Friday: 8:00 AM–1:00 PM EST (Excluding holidays)
Non-paying candidates who contact the team outside business hours for non-urgent matters may be subject to a $500 fee and/or removal from our database. Please reserve matchmaker contact for matchmaking-related matters — we’re not able to assist with unrelated requests (employment, investment introductions, personal networking) unless specifically retained to do so.
Respect & Zero-Tolerance Policies
Zero tolerance for body-shaming. No comments — direct, indirect, joking, or implied — about a woman’s body, weight, size, or appearance. Violations may result in immediate membership review or revocation.
Respect dating preferences. Everyone is entitled to their own preferences around attraction, age, background, and lifestyle. Do not shame, ridicule, or pressure someone because they don’t fit yours.
No drama, no gossip. Manipulation, hostility, repeated complaints about other members, or attempts to create drama within the network may result in membership review or revocation.
Confidentiality is non-negotiable. Never share another member’s name, contact information, photos, social media, personal circumstances, or anything learned through the Billion Dollar Introduction® process without written authorization. Violations may result in immediate revocation and, where applicable, legal action.
No solicitation. Introductions made through Billion Dollar Introduction® may not be used to promote a business, sell services, recruit for other platforms, or independently connect members with outside services without authorization.
Travel & Safety
If travel is part of a match, both parties should communicate clearly in advance about comfort levels, accommodations, and logistics. Decline before arrangements are made if you’re not comfortable — once travel is booked, we expect reasonable follow-through. Last-minute cancellations or no-shows may result in removal from our service, and a member who cancels after arrangements are made may be responsible for reimbursing reasonable expenses incurred by the other party.
Billion Dollar Introduction® facilitates introductions between consenting adults. We are not responsible for outcomes, arrangements, or personal conduct occurring after an introduction — participation in travel is voluntary, and each individual is responsible for their own decisions and safety.
Safety reminders:
- Never drink and drive — arrange a rideshare or other safe transportation
- Don’t exchange last names, addresses, or social media before an appropriate in-person meeting, unless otherwise authorized
- If someone pressures you for personal information before you’re ready, notify your matchmaker immediately
- Trust your instincts — if something feels off, contact your matchmaker
Enforcement
These standards protect the integrity of the Billion Dollar Introduction® network and the experience of every member in it. Violations may result in:
- A formal warning
- Membership review or suspension of introductions
- Removal from the candidate database
- Membership revocation without refund
- Reimbursement obligations, where applicable
- Legal action, where appropriate
Serious violations — harassment, discrimination, confidentiality breaches, intimidation, threats, fraud, sexual misconduct, or conduct that compromises another member’s safety — may result in immediate removal without prior warning.
Billion Dollar Introduction® reserves the right to determine, in its reasonable discretion, whether conduct violates these standards and what action is appropriate. This standard applies to everyone, regardless of profession, income, age, or background.
The Billion Dollar Introduction® First-Date Rule
Be curious. Be gracious. Be present.
Don’t debate. Don’t interrogate. Don’t trauma-dump. Don’t gossip. Don’t compare. Don’t pressure.
Your job on a first date isn’t to decide whether this person is your future spouse — it’s to determine whether you genuinely enjoyed meeting them and want to know more.
Let Billion Dollar Introduction® handle the matchmaking strategy. You handle the connection.
