There’s common sense, and then there’s just being an idiot. The following four things have all really been said to women on dates. Is not saying them simply common sense, or abstaining from being stupid? You decide.
“Wow, you really caked on the makeup tonight!”
Most women, at least on dates, worry about their makeup. Yes, even the women who wear very little. It’s difficult for them not to as makeup ads litter the landscape, and just try picking up any magazine targeted at women without being drowned in ads from Cover Girl to Lancome. So when on a date, never tell a woman her makeup looks bad. Even if you’re dangerously worried she might be the second coming of Tammy Faye Baker, keep your mouth shut. More to the point, most men know nothing about makeup and should probably leave the criticism to those with a little more experience.
“How do you think your spiritual gifts can benefit me in my ministry?”
If you happen to be a young minister of some type, keep in mind that dates are about the other person as much as they are about you. Asking someone how their spiritual gifts can benefit you is akin to asking how their good looks can compliment yours. Dating is not about finding a new piece to fit into your incomplete puzzle. In fact, your puzzle should already be complete. It is also important to keep in mind, despite the jokes, that dating is not a job interview. Do not ask your date to bring a resume or recite one from memory.
“You think you’re a princess of something, always expecting me to open doors for you.”
Women do not generally think of themselves as princesses. Yes, there are the occasional ones who appear on My Super Sweet 16, but for the most part they’ve long outgrown those fantasies by the time they begin dating. Women do generally think they should be treated with some respect, the same as men. Not holding doors for women may not score you any particular points with them, but complaining about them wanting a door held will almost certainly lose you some. Save yourself some trouble and simply hold the door.
“Why are you wearing that tight t-shirt? Are you trying to accentuate your breasts?”
Yes, she is.
