Singles, Are You Making These 5 Common Dating Mistakes?

Sometimes, we tend to get anxious about the idea of meeting someone new that we forget a few subtle things we sometimes do that might turn our date off. The sad part is, it's very unlikely you'll get a chance to hear what went wrong from someone who's already written you off his or her love list. 
Fret not, because here are the answers you never got to hear, presented in a list of 5 common dating mistakes you should never make again! 
1. You Come Across a Negative or Insecure Person
You won't be winning any romantic points when you point out your shortcomings to your date. On group outings especially, you have to learn to join in a conversation even if you're normally shy around strangers. If you want others to open up their hearts to you, you must first learn to open up to others in a positive way.
2. You Dump Your Emotional Load on Your Date
It can be very emotionally tiring to listen to someone who complains about everything bad that's happening in his or her life right now. If you have to vent your frustration about backstabbing colleagues, horrible bosses or that "stupid" friend of yours, you need to book a date – with a counselor.
3. You Forget Your Manners
If you have a habit of coughing with an uncovered mouth or passing sarcastic remarks about others, it's time to keep your behavior in check. Be someone that your partner would like to love, not loathe! 
4. You Reveal Too Much About Your Ex
If someone you fancy suddenly tells you things like, "Me and my ex used to do this..." or "My ex did this for me...", how would you feel? As a sign of respect to your date, avoid any discussion of your romantic history as that might give the impression you're not serious about committing to a new relationship.
5. You Appear Overeager
Do you get engrossed with the excitement of a conversation that you find yourself making verbal slipups like, "You and me should hang out together more often"...even though your date has not warmed up to you yet? Rather than scaring off your date by saying something at the wrong time, wait till the end of the date before you express any interest in future contact.
