5 things that freak guys out on a date

scared-guy

 

So this Halloween we’ve given you tricky daters, devilishly good date ideas, hideously scary horror movies and London’s most haunted haunts. But gurls, you need to know that some things freak us out even more than finding Aileen Wuornos was your taxi driver…(google her)

Yup, no matter how gorgeous you might be, these are the 5 things that will have us running for the exit…

1. Being overly assertive

We know you’re successful and independent women, we know that you are super organised, can multi-task and should probably rule the world and that actually, you do, but cut us some slack and let us feel we’ve got a little control left, please?  So you booked the restaurant, let us choose the wine? It’s too warm? We don’t mind complaining for you? Being faced with a female Alan Sugar on a date is the quickest way to see us fire ourselves.  Humour our inner caveman and our need to be protective, chivalrous and seemingly assertive. It might seem pathetic but it’s sort of endearing, isn’t it?

2. Picking at food

If you don’t eat, don’t agree to a dinner date. There is nothing worse than watching someone move a lettuce leaf about their plate all evening or who asks the waiter to hold the dressing, parmesan or remove the cheese from your macoroni bake. Really?  We want to tuck into our blood dripping steak guilt-free.  We like a woman who tucks in and worries about it tomorrow. Oh, and do not refuse a dessert than ask us for a bit of ours. No. You absolutely can’t. Oh jeez, just a bit, OK?

3.  Knowing me knowing it all…

Intelligence is sexy. Guys like smart, witty women with a good sense of humour but don’t excitedly machine gun blast us with all of these attributes all night. Allow us to get a word in, we love to be listened to and understood where possible, we’re needy like that. Relax and have fun with us, OK? Can we put our hands down now?

4. Dressed to kill

Because someone will die in the 6″ heels you ladies teeter on, either us as we cushion your fall or you as you stop traffic, literally. Newsflash. If you are short, we still know you’re short when you’re in heels and in fact, we often imagine just how short you’ll be when you take the heels off. We’d rather your wore pumps and your vertically challenged gorgeousness with (comfortable) pride. Do check the height we stated in our profile then mentally subtract by an inch or two and work out the appropriate footwear so you’re not towering above us. We can’t embrace the fact we’re short as easily as you. It’s a guy thing.

You might get the impression us guys like a bit of boob and thigh and yes,  OK, we’re visual creatures, but stare as we might, it doesn’t mean this is the kind of attire we want our date or potential girlfriends to wear. Some men might, but normally the ones that see you as a possession like a flash car. Your face will do the talking and well, trust us, we have good imaginations so leave something to it…?

5. Emoji love

Guys don’t love emojis. We hate it when you pepper your text narrative with weird symbols or worse still,  create whole sentences from stupid faces and weird objects. We don’t always understand them and sometimes we misinterpret them and think you’re asking us to commit murder but with love. We also feel obliged to reply to you with our often pathetic attempt at being emoji literate. The truth is, we’re not as good at it as you are so stick to words, purlease? 🙂
