You’re sitting across from a great guy you met on Yahoo! Personals. You can’t remember the last time a first date went so well. You’re attracted to the guy. He has all the qualities you’re looking for in a mate. He would even get your mom’s approval.
The date ends and you actually have butterflies. Not only does this guy have second and third date potential, but you can smell a relationship. Unfortunately, a week passes and the cold reality sinks in that this great guy has no intention of ever seeing you again.Where did you go wrong?
How could you have misunderstood what you thought was great chemistry? Maybe it’s time you learned the top 10 turnoffs that make good guys wave goodbye. If any of these fictional female daters sound like you, it’s time for a first-date makeover.

Misleading Maggie: Her profile says no kids, athletic and raking in the big bucks. The first date reveals two young kids, an extended waistline and unemployment checks.
Nothing says trust issues for a guy more than lies from the get-go

Insecure Ilene: She reads into every comment a guy makes. She wants to know right away if date #2 can be tomorrow. She asks you to call the minute you get home. This clingy nature screams of a potential needy girlfriend lacking independence.

Third-Degree Donna: The cross-examination begins before the menus arrive. The questions are coming fast and furious, and the guy begins to feel like the defendant on the stand in a criminal trial. If a guy feels stuck under the interrogation lights, he’ll run for the hills.

Tardy Tina: She arrives late, she no-shows, she changes plans last-minute, she loses his number, she flat-out just doesn’t respect a guy’s time. Fashionably late is one thing; keeping a guy waiting 30 minutes or no-showing is unacceptable.

High-Maintenance Hilda: “Thanks for taking me to this nice restaurant, but couldn’t you get a The feeling that nothing is ever good enough makes a guy quit trying to impress. A simple thank you for a nice dinner is a better way to go.

Chatterbox Charlene: The conversation doesn’t have to be 50 percent talking and 50 percent listening, but if she does all the talking it feels more like a seminar than a date. Charlene’s opposite cousin, Pulling Teeth Patricia, is equally unsettling, making the guy do all the work.

Still-Hurting Sally: First dates are notorious for spilling the beans on what went wrong with prior relationships. Sharing an amusing anecdote is good; making it clear you’re not over your ex-boyfriend is a definite no-no.

Game Player Gina: “Maybe I’ll kiss you goodnight, maybe I won’t.”
Good guys like to know where they stand. They leave the game-playing for the sports field. There’s nothing wrong with flirting, but just know when it crosses over into deception and confusion.

Conceited Colleen: “Any guy would be lucky to have me.” Guess what, the great guy across the table is also a real catch. Stop assuming every guy doesn’t deserve you, and then you’ll be on your way to actually landing a good one.

Matrimony Maureen: He dips his egg roll in duck sauce when all of a sudden she spills the beans on what they should name their kids. Intense relationships can be exciting for a good guy, but walking down the aisle before you walk each other home for the first time is a turn-off.

o1. WIGGLE IT. The top area of the, called the toe box, must have ample room(length-and width-wise) for you to accommodate the natural forward and backward movement your foot makes you when you walk. Without this allowance, your shoes can cause friction that could result more serious foot problems later on. A fail-safe way to check for ample space: Wiggle your toes.

o2. DIY. Shoe sizes vary according to styles, so never ask someone to buy a pair for you - even if you’re the same size.

o3. BREAK OUT FROM BREAKING IN. A common shoe myth is that it’s alright for your feet to feel discomfort when wearing new shoes. Truth is, you can’t expect shoes to stratch-especially if they’re made of synthetic material.If the shoes cause even the slightest pinch or discomfort in your feet, don’t buy them.

o4. MIND THE TIME. Our feet naturally sweel later in the day as a result of our standing or walking around. Make sure to schedule your shoe shopping late in the afternoon or in the evening so as to get your working foot’s real size.

o5. HAVE EVERYTHING READY. Shopping for sports shoes? Bring the appropriate socks with you because not all stores will lend you a pair(plus, you don’t want to wear something others shoppers have worn!)
