Things a woman says on a first date that scare you off

Sign in to disble this ad
As I've gotten older, I'm not sure if it's that I'm meeting more crazy women, or if I'm better at reading the early warning signs or both, but there are certain things that women say that let me know early on that things aren't going to work out.

The last date I went on before meeting my current girlfriend included some doozies being sprinkled throughout dinner:

"I'm smarter than everyone else there." (referring to her work)
"I don't like concerts."
"I don't like our waitresses attitude." (she was nothing but courteous)

I'm curious to hear some of the things that other TBers have heard that hinted at bad things to come.

Here's some from OctoberMoon's post in the dominating women thread that got me thinking about this:

Any one or combination of those is a sign to head for the hills.

No wonder she agreed so quickly to go out with me!

I'm OK as long as I take my Valtrex.

I need someone who will fulfill me.

I voted for John Kerry.
