What "Not To Do" On A Date

Have you been dumped by a guy but you don't know the reason? Are you his deal breaker? Do you push the guy away but you are not aware of it?

Then read on to find out what you should not be doing on a date.

Being rude to others.

How would you like if a guy was rude to you, especially on your first date? Would you give him a second chance? NO. Same is the case with you. If you come across as a rude person, you will never have a second date. The least you can do is to be polite and civil. These are very basic manners which you need to imbibe, if you don't have them. Nobody likes to be around a person who behaves rudely.

Complaining and grumbling at all times.

Every guy wants his date to be a joyful and wonderful experience, not a nightmare. Imagine the guy's reaction if he finds you cribbing about the smallest things in your life. Your date is a human being and not a complaint book. Ask yourself. Are you the whining type? If you are, then that is certainly not an attractive quality. Dial down your 'whining', if you want to make a good impression. There are lot of other positive things that you share with him. Save the negative vibes.

Distractions on the date.

How would you feel if the guy ignores you on the date? Would you like if he is constantly checking his messages or taking calls or getting updates on the latest football scores? No you wouldn't. Such behavior is childish. Concentrate on your date. Keep your phone on a silent mode. You can always check your missed calls later, unless they are very urgent. Don't get distracted by such silly reasons. The guy won't take it well and may never call you back.

Do not degrade yourself.

You must love your life. If you can't talk good about yourself then others won't either. Everybody has highs and lows. But talking about the lows constantly and complaining about how bad your life is, is no way to win a guy. Have some respect for yourself. You will soon notice that the guy respects you too.

Leave your ex in the past.

Your ex-boyfriend is your past. Don't let him ruin your present and future. Talking about your ex is the biggest turn off for any guy. It can hurt the self esteem of a guy and he may think that you have still not recovered from your previous relationship. Then how can you start a new one?

Liar Liar!

Lying can end it for you totally. You may have impressed the guy by making him believe what you are not. But that will not last for long. You will not know when a small lie of yours will turn into a big one and you won't be able to handle that. Do not lie about yourself. That is cheating. Let him like you for what you are. If you have to change yourself for him, then he is probably not worth it.

Talking about money matters.

Money matters are sensitive. People don't like to talk about their personal financial matters. Talking about general things like, 'the economy is so bad' is okay. But don't start asking questions about his pay packet. That is extremely cheap. You are out to have fun and talking about money spoils the fun.

Basic hygiene.

This is plain common sense. You need not have super model looks. But the least you can have is proper hygiene. You must look presentable when you are on a date. That does not mean only wearing fancy clothes. Presentable includes taking care of the body odor, bad breath, nails, hair and skin. The least you can do is go to a salon and take care of yourself. Make the date a pleasant memory because of your appearance, not because of your onion-garlic breath.

Poor manners.

These are not rules per say, but they can annoy anybody. Always being late on a date, talking too much, interrupting others - these are bad manners. So stay away from them.

Your initial dates are very crucial in building a relationship. Impress the guy by staying away from these and he would want to meet you again.
