Dating Habits You Should Ditch

Sure, we're all guilty of having bad habits. But there are some that can seriously eff with your dating life without you even realizing it. Experts swear these little moves give off the signal that you're just not that into a guy…even when you totally are. 

Not Returning His Calls.Sure, playing hard to get can work. But if you don't want him to play games, don't do it either. When he reaches out, get back to him within an hour or two.

Talking Too Much.Pauses in a conversation can be, well, awkward. By trying to avoid the silence, you might end up chatting non-stop about yourself. Do this and he'll think you're way too self-absorbed and have no plans on getting to know him and his interests. Instead, ask him questions about himself and let the conversation flow.

Scanning the Room.You might be nervous—or you might have a short attention span. If your date notices that you're constantly scanning the room, he'll think you're bored.

Checking Your Phone.It's become sort of the norm to hand-hug your phone when out. Ah, gotta Instagram that meal. But when you're on a date, don't do it. It lets him think that he doesn't have your attention and that you're just not into him.

Avoiding the Bill.While most guys will end up footing the bill, they still want their girl to offer to pay. Being stubborn and not wanting to pay will make you come off as high-maintenance. And no guy wants to get involved with a girl that might be too much work.
