What are your biggest turn offs on a first date?

What are things that people do on a first date that just make you get totally put off?

Got any stories to share?

Now I haven't been on a date myself (cue violins playing), but I'd say the following would put me off..

- Being late
- Texting and ignoring me

Discuss.

Being rude to the waiter ! :angry:
No manners, definitely. Some people treat waiters like shite and on a date, that would be so embarrassing.

Also, being loud. Like, loud for no reason.
when they're on their phone most of time- like put it aside for once!! some attention would be nice:colondollar:

being rude to waiters :rolleyes:

and please.....dont brag or show off- its so unattractive!

If he talks about an ex on the first date.
Burping rlly loud and in my face, being rude to a waiter, being really late, talking about ex's. :redface:
When I (as a man) have pay for more than 2 rounds of drinks without her even at least offering to buy one.

If she was to go out for a fag, I'd be gone before she gets back

It's a habit of mine to interrupt but I always let the lady speak :h:
-Smoking is a instant leave for me vaping too
-Veggie/Vegan
- big political difference
- Peircing anything but earrings is a instant no.
- Expects me to pay for everything because I am a man
- No career prospects is a instant no
- I dont like lots of makeup, I prefer none.
- Overly feminine and immature
- Obsessed with Beauty and clothes and handbags ect.

Ahh that's something we can agree on then! It's rude when someone is texting and you wanna talk to them, sometimes my friends do it but on a date? It's bye Felicia :rofl: (if that's her name)
