After 2 months of chatting and emailing some members of an online dating site, you've finally chosen someone to date. You want to check out if your choice really meets your criteria for a long-term partner. At the same time, you also want to make the best first impression. What could cause a date to lose interest or enthusiasm? Here are some of the common turn-offs during a first date:
1. You look so much unlike the photo you submitted to the online dating site.
That photo was taken 10 years ago. You look so much older, and fatter.
2. You are an hour late. It shows some habits. If you're late, apologize.
3. Not asking your date about what she likes to order. You assume that she will like what you ordered for her. This shows a domineering attitude.
4. Arrogance and disrespect. If you humiliate the waiter or bartender serving you, it shows you could humiliate your date, too.
5. Talking too much, too loud. Not letting your date talk.
6. Not being well-groomed.
7. Wearing lousy or smelly clothes.
8. Bad hygiene, dirty hands and fingernails.
9. Talking about controversial topics that could lead to a disagreement.
10. Talking about your future wedding, or how many children you want.
11. Talking about your personal problems.
12. Waiting for your date to foot the bill. Have enough money with you to pay for your share.
13.Not talking at all. Not having any nice topic to talk about. 14. Talking bad about other people.
15.Talking about your ex. Comparing your date with your ex.
16. Feeling obviously nervous and looking stupid.
17. Texting or calling people on the phone without excusing yourself first.
18. Being too serious, not having a sense of humor.
19. Not tipping the waiter/waitress.
20. Not opening doors for a lady date.
21.Belching, farting, burping, blowing nose, picking teeth or nose.
22. Bragging about how good you are in bed.
23. Commenting on the price of what your date ordered.
24. Staring at other women/men.
25. Interrogating your date about his/her job, finances, location of house, employment, or business.
26. Getting drunk. It shows a common habit.
27. Wearing too much makeup if you're a girl.
28. Chewing loudly and with your mouth open.
29. You can't establish eye contact.
30. Bad table manners, slurping soup, licking fork or knife.
First impressions are lasting ones, and the last thing that you want to do on a date is pass off a negative impression. Best of luck in life and love.
