We all hate a boring first date; no one wants to go on a first date and be bored. After a boring first date, there would most likely not be a second date; come on, no one wants to be stabbed twice.
People do so many boring things on their first dates that could just make their date frustrated and the date the most boring ever.
First dates can sometimes be edgy but being confident, relaxed and comfortable can just make the date very lively.
There are 8 common boring things people do that others complain about on first dates.
1. WOULDN’T TALK EXCEPT WHEN BEING TALKED TO
Come on, you are not in a job interview. A first date should be all about interaction and communication not like an official job with your boss. This is very boring and everyone would definitely complain about this. You should contribute in a discussion not keeping mute like you were forced to the date.
2. STARING ALL OVER
This is another boring thing people do that make first dates quite boring. Staring all around the place would make your date bored, it takes your mind off the person you are with on that date and just creates this boring scenario. Continuously staring at other irrelevant things would make the date boring and your date bored.
3. ACTING COLD
Ladies are the most likely culprits in this scenario. Some ladies don’t know how to release themselves and open their mind up during a date, they bring their cold self to a date and it just makes the guy bored. Acting cold is really boring and makes a date a total waste of time.
4. USING PHONES ALL THROUGH
Oh no; this is one act that can make a date completely boring. Phones and gadgets are a total no when it comes to first dates or any other dates. It shows you are a boring person that can’t have a decent conversation or that you are just not comfortable with your date.
5. ASKING WEIRD QUESTIONS
First dates should be cool, you aren’t supposed to know everything about your date on the very first date; it should be a gradual process; guys are the major culprits here. A first date should be all about conversations and creating a friendly atmosphere. Asking persistent meaningless questions is not just boring but it’s totally uncalled for.
6. NOT BEING ATTENTIVE
I wonder why people do this on a first date, when they are there but it’s like they aren’t; this makes the date boring and your date would end up frustrated. I still can’t figure out why people do this on their first date. Like I said earlier, first dates are all about conversations and being attentive is the first part of conversation.
7. KEEPING A STRAIGHT FACE
A straight face is a scary one; when on a first date, your straight face should be kept at home. A straight face would make your date feel uneasy and that would even kill his/her confidence and would eventually make the date boring. A smiling face would bring life to the date and make your date want even another date.
8. NOT BEING LIVELY
When a date is lively, smiles, happy conversation and all that would fill the scene. But when one or both partners bring their less lively side, the date would end up being ruined. Being lively makes the date lively and the opposite would make the date boring.
I hate it when people bring their boring side to a first date, it would end up ruining the date. A boring date is a waste of time, money and even emotions, because you would go home unhappy.
