<\/p>\nI’m the UK’s top Dating Guru,\u00a0 and people always tell me their biggest dating turn offs.\u00a0 These can be tiny things, but some come up over and over again.\u00a0 It’s time for you to read and learn in case you are making the same mistakes!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1) Bad Body Odour andpersonal hygiene. This usually tops most people’s list of turn offs. It goes without saying that you should take a shower, shave\u00a0 and smell nice if you want to attract other people.<\/p>\n
2) Smoking. This is not just extremely anti-social but it gives you terrible breath and shows you don’t take your health seriously.\u00a0 Funnily enough, it seems that even smokers don’t want to date other smokers!<\/p>\n
3) Avoiding direct eye contact. Always remember that eye contact is crucial so don’t stare at the floor. If you look nervous then it just gives the impression that you have something to hide.<\/p>\n
4) Assuming the world revolves around you. You really don’t need to talk endlessly about yourself or stare at the mirror the whole time. Focus on the person you are dating and make them feel like the centre of your universe.<\/p>\n
5) Being Negative.\u00a0 There’s really nothing worse than being a “victim” and talking about all your problems on a date. It’s just not attractive! Instead, try and see the positive side of everything and remember to laugh and smile often.<\/p>\n
6) Being a cheapskate. We say this time and time again but men should always pay the bill on the first date but the woman should at least offer. If you are stingy with money then you are probably stingy with your time and affection too.<\/p>\n
7) Not having a photo on your online dating profile. This is major error that many people seem to make. If you don’t have a photo or demand to see one before sending out yours, then it shows insecurity and the strong possibility that you have something to hide. Even worse are photos with sunglasses or hats. Why would you wear the hat if you had a lovely head of hair?<\/p>\n
8) Being too sexual or too keen.\u00a0 There’s nothing wrong with showing that you are serious about dating but don’t take things to far or too fast.\u00a0 You don’t need to jump into bed right away or make plans for the next five weekends on your first date.\u00a0 Take a little time to get to know each other slowly. Give yourselves time to miss each other.<\/p>\n
9) Not making it clear when you aren’t interested. Some people think they are being kind by not directly rejecting someone. Instead they just ignore calls, emails and texts and cut off all contact. The trouble with this is that nobody gets any closure and it just stretches it out. If you have to, be polite and honest rather than give them hope. It’s kinder in the long run!<\/p>\n
10) Trying to change them. It can sometimes be easy to overlook the flaws in a relationship. Instead, you think that you will be able to sort them out and get them to work on the things you don’t like. Wrong! Focus on the things you do like about them. Everyone has flaws and they just make is human. If you were both perfect life could be very boring indeed.<\/p>\n
