What Not to Say on a First Date

Girls, have you ever been on a date and thought to yourself, 'No, he did not just say that' ? Speaking from a personal experience, I know I have. First dates can be extremely nerve racking for guys who have no idea what to say. You don't want to lie or stretch the truth, but you also don't want to send your date running off to hail a cab before you've even ordered. Today I will discuss some fascinating facts about what not to say on a first date for you 'men' who have a very little understanding on this topic. Specifically, I will discuss the 'ex' factor, paying for dinner, and most definitely the invention that all women are set off by.
First, I will discuss the 'ex' factor. Come on guys, you are on a first date. Your date does not need nor want to hear about your ex-girl friend. According to socyberty.com, saying negative things about your ex for example, “my ex is crazy”, “my ex won't leave me alone”. Blah blah blah. We don't want to hear it and this could get you in trouble. Your date might start to think that your still in love with your ex and feel like a re-bound. Which could signal a girl to say “Next”. Also, talking about past loved ones can leave your date with so many questions and feel some what confused. She might start to ask her self in the middle of the date, Why am I here? Does he still love her? Why did he even ask me out? It is best for you, and the date it self, if you simply leave out the ex-girl friend. And if by any means the topic arises, answer with “I don't live in the past”. Which could get you brownie points, because no girl wants to deal with the ex-girl friend. Plain and simple. Your on a first date. The ex should be ex-ed out. ("10 Things You Should Never Say on a First Date | Socyberty." Socyberty | Society on the Web.
