A first date makes it possible for people to get to know each other, it also makes a second (and a whole lot more dates) possible. It is the first impression that stays/makes a relationship or friendship come to be.

Too many times, people take the first date for granted and end up missing out on getting to know each other/possible relationship/friendship. As much as a first date shouldn't be about going all out -easy on the make-up and cleavage baring tops too- this is a place where best manners should be brought to play!

1. Talking With Food In Your Mouth (Eww)

Oh dear, no one should be punished with a sight like this! If you need to talk, ensure to swallow your food before you open your mouth, its just unfair to the other person to see your half chewed food when you are talking!

2. Texting And Answering Your Calls While Eating...

That is just rude! Even if the person doesnt catch your attention/interest you shouldn't have to hold your phone to chat with friends/receive calls while he/she sits across just looking at you. Don't do that.

3. Talking/Referring To Your Ex!

Noooo! Do not talk about your ex, it would only look like you are not over him/her yet or you are just a person who never lets go, do not curse your ex or make any kind of snide remarks about them, you will just come across as abnormal or something close.

4. Taking Too Much Alcohol/Getting Wasted

If you get drunk easy, stay away from drinking down, trust us being drunk isn't sexy!

5. Discussing Your Future Plans

Slow down! Its only a first date, start getting to know each other first then other things would follow. By all means be at your best for a first date but be yourself, no pretences, if the other person is meant for you he/she will accept you the way you are!
