We all have our likes and dislikes when it comes to dating, and what may be OK to you, may not be acceptable to someone else. There is a large list of top dating dislikes that the majority of women have agreed upon.



Poor hygiene is top and foremost in the list of dislikes for a first date or any other date. Appearing sloppy in your attire, is demeaning, both to you and your potential date. Dates are not very often a spontaneous event so give yourself enough time to shower, shave if you need it, brush your teeth, comb your hair, and apply deodorant. Clothes that don't look like they were pulled from the bottom of your hamper and have no kind of messages or pictures on them are a good thing as well. It is unfortunate that for some people, hygiene isn't at the top of their priority list.

Make time to get ready for your date. The majority of people do not like to be kept waiting. Lateness shows a severe lack of respect and consideration for the other person. If you are running late, do make a simple call or text message letting the person know that you will be there shortly. They will appreciate it.

Drinking too much is another that tops the list. No one wants to be on a date with someone who is hammering the drinks back one after the other. When you are getting to know a person on a date, you do not want to drink so much that you start slurring or stumbling, men or women, neither of those is attractive to the person you are with. Getting drunk on a date, whether it's a first one or not, does not leave a good impression, nor does it warrant your date to want to go out with you again.

Bragging is another dating dislike and as a general dating rule something to avoid. No boasting about what your worldly possessions are, unless you wish to be evaluated on the basis of that, rather than on your character, sense of humor and other qualities. You may talk about your successes and accomplishments, but no bragging allowed.

Dress for the date. If you know you are taking your date out for lunch or a nice dinner, don't dress in sweatpants and baggy shirt. This shows a clear lack of respect and enthusiasm for your date. Sloppy and "comfortable" are OK but for your home, not a date.
