They say that the first impression is the best impression. This rule also applies to the dating scenario. It is a common observation that while desperately searching for the woman of their dreams; men tend to commit certain fatal mistakes. These mistakes leave a lasting negative impression on the mind of your partner. The best strategy is to learn about these common mistakes committed by men on their first dates and avoid committing those mistakes altogether. If you can somehow manage to avoid dating mistakes, half your battle is won. You can win the rest of the battle by demonstrating good mannerisms, exuding self-confidence, entertaining her with your humorous talks and anecdotes, discussing about your achievements or career objectives, and so on.

Mentioned here are some of the most common dating mistakes that men commit on their first date, which you must try and avoid committing on your first date.

1. You should avoid dating mistakes like not maintaining eye-to eye contact with your date, looking away here and there and watching others around you (especially attractive women or girls around), is considered to be very rude. It simply reflects that the man is disinterested in his date or that he does not care to listen to what his date is speaking about.

2. You should also avoid dating mistakes like blabbering senselessly. It indicates that either you are very nervous and have low-self esteem, or, it indicates that you are a highly egoistic person, who has no concern for what others think or want to say. Instead, you must gauge your words carefully and carefully plan out each sentence you speak with your dating partner. It is a good idea to encourage your date to speak and listen to her, providing valuable inputs and feedbacks wherever necessary.

3. Most importantly, you should avoid dating mistakes like using a cheap and foul abusive language or being cruel and unsympathetic towards fellow human beings and animals. Women are sensitive and tend to unconsciously connect these incidences of violence with your inherent nature or character (which might not actually be volatile in the true sense).

4. You should also avoid dating mistakes like turning up on your first date with a disheveled appearance, wearing stinking clothes and dirty shoes. Women attach a lot of importance to grooming and unless you deliberately want to disappoint the lady, you must show up on the date with a clean shaven face, neatly combed hair, and wearing fresh and well-ironed clothes.

5. Additionally, you should also avoid dating mistakes like taking the lady to a restaurant for dinner where you have never been before. Unless you have already been to the restaurant earlier and tasted the food, liked the ambiance and the behavior of the staff there, never take the lady there because you are not sure of what to order, or how a particular item in the menu tastes. This may leave you looking confused and unsure of yourself; which may not be the desired image (of yourself) that you want to project.

6. Finally, you should avoid dating mistakes like hinting at sexual favors from your date. No woman would want her partner to ask her for such unethical favors on the very first date. It will definitely turn her off and make her think that you are a perverted person, who lacks any degree of moral integrity.
