10 Red flags that everyone should look out for on a first date

1. They keep looking at their phone 

This one's pretty self explanatory, if someone can find the time to check their emails or return texts when they're supposed to be learning all about you, they're clearly not going to respect you, or your time later down the line.

2. They make crude jokes 

Anyone who strives to make you uncomfortable, or makes any joke which could be misconstrued as racist, sexist or prejudiced in any way, is not someone you want to meet for a second date.

3. They continually bring up your appearance 

It's just plain rude, and it's evident that they're trying to mould you into something you're not.

4. It's all about me, myself and I 

you. 

 5. They're blatantly not interested 

Do they seem distracted the whole time? Are they half-heartedly following up conversation cues? If so, you better get out of there, quick.

6. They trash talk their exes 

Anyone who has the time or energy to talk badly about their exes to a veritable stranger clearly still has unresolved issues.

7. Or they talk about their exes too much 

The same applies here...

8. They're rude to the staff 

This may be the biggest red flag ever. I mean, you don't want to be associated with someone who's impolite to someone who's just trying to do their job, do you?

9. They complain, about everything

If they're complaining on a first date, where you're supposed to be on top form, then can you imagine how much they're going to moan when you get to know them better? No one has time for that much negativity.

10. They don't prioritise you early on 

The thing is, no one is really too busy to hang out with the people they like. So if you're finding it incredibly difficult to nail down the guy or gal you're seeing, chances are your feelings are unrequited. In other words, you deserve to be a priority, not an afterthought.

Now it's time to really look out for those ten red flags and spare yourself a second date with someone, who, lets face it, isn't worth your time.
