10 THINGS YOU SHOULD AVOID ON THE FIRST DATE
1 BE LATE
Whatever you do, don’t be late.
Punctuality is always important, especially on the first date. If you show up late, it will send the message that you just don’t care. Reduce your chances of a late arrival by departing earlier than usual.
2 TALK ABOUT YOUR EX
Don’t mention your ex when you’re on a first date.
The first date is not an appropriate time to talk incessantly about past loves. Keep a lid on it unless it is relevant to the conversation. And even then, don’t stay on the topic longer than necessary. It’s best to steer clear of a discussion about your exes until the time is right. If you just can’t help yourself, and your ex is still all you talk about, you’re clearly not over the relationship . You may need a break from dating so you can deal with your issues. Don’t date on the rebound, as these relationships rarely turn out well. Heal your heart first, and then jump back into the dating pool when you’re ready.
3. DEMONSTRATE POOR LISTENING SKILLS
When you’re on a first date, make sure you’re listening to the other person.
If there were ever a time to focus, it’s now. The first date is when you’ll learn a lot of new things about your potential partner. Take the time to really listen to what he or she is saying. The first couple of dates will help you decide whether to continue with the relationship or move on to someone more compatible . Your date shouldn’t have to repeat his or herself several times.
4. LOOK SLOPPY
Make sure you look nice when you’re on your first date.
Pay attention to your appearance . If you show up looking a mess, it shows that you don’t take pride in how you look and don’t really care about the outcome of your meeting. If you really couldn’t care less, just cancel the date and stay home. Don’t ask someone out just to pass the time or because you’re lonely.
5. TELL YOUR WHOLE LIFE STORY
Save the intimate details for later.
Keep the conversation fun and light.
If you reveal your entire life story from childhood until now, you’ll not only bore your date to death but also make yourself less of a challenge. And you’ll also appear a little unbalanced (OK, a lot unbalanced). In addition, your date will think that if you’re ready to share everything upfront you do that with everyone you meet.
