If you've ever resisted the urge to slam the door on your blind date --- only to endure an awkward dinner conversation peppered with forced laughter, while plotting an exit strategy the whole time --- you know the following is true:
Most people know within 30 seconds of meeting someone new whether they're attracted to that person, according to a variety of scientific studies.
