8 First Date Dealbreakers

July 15, 2012 2:00 pm     Posted in Homepage Exclusive, Relationships  Jenn Inzetta g+ page

Way back when, when I first started dating, I was often told that I was too picky. I expected too much. Had too many qualifications. And maybe that was true. I mean, it’s kind of hard for any guy to compare to Pacey Witter. So as time went on, my ideals changed, my qualifications morphed, and my expectations became more realistic. I may hope for Ryan Gosling, but I know I probably won’t be meeting him anytime soon.

But even with my ever changing criteria, I still have some standards. There are certain things I will just not put up with. My dos and donts. My dating rules.  My first date dealbreakers.

      I don't usually let guys pay for me. I like to pay for my own food. I certainly wouldn't let them pay if I didn't want to see them again.

      And being late I hate. I allow it with my friends because I know who will be late, but on a date you should be on time.

      Totally agree with the phone thing. Phones shouldn't be touched the entire date
