Preparing for first dates can be nerve-wracking. You’re all over the place trying to be perfect and making sure you don’t say or do something that is inappropriate on the first meeting. But then, you meet certain gems on these dates and it makes you wonder why you bothered in the first place. With some people, you’re often left wondering how they can say things that are so offensive, so nonchalantly. All you know, though, is that the date, right there, is over.
Here are 10 things you can say to effectively ruin a first date with someone.
1. You remind me of my ex
Yup. Let’s talk about it.
2. Hey, I have discount coupons for our dinner date today
Oh, cool. Even I didn’t bother considering that the first date is important to make a good impression.
3. Deti hai toh de, warna kat le
No bro, I don’t Chetan Bhagat.
4. It’s okay, it’s a huge bill, let me pay for it
