Ladies. Dating and facilitating the growth of a long lasting a prosperous relationship is all about efficiency in relationship based tactics and practices. But relationships stem from somewhere, right? Maybe someone caught your eye and you took the first step at initiating communication. Maybe you were at a party and the two of you had been eyeing each other all night until he/she finally approached you. While the pathway to a relationship can stem from a number of routes, they pretty much begin in the same place: the first date.

When determining your feelings or passion towards a particular individual, we all know it becomes critical that a sufficient amount of time is spent getting to know that person. This influences compatibility, companionship, as well as strength. Again, this all begins somewhere, which is typically the first time you spend one-on-one time together.

In this article, I'm going to share the top 5 things I think it's important that we as ladies DO NOT DO or SAY on a first date...especially if you're looking for a second!

1. "I love you"

Never underestimate the power of language. We all know that these are three of the most powerful words that can be uttered from an individual's mouth. They hold weight and are typically administered when you've known someone for an adequate period of time, developed a level of companionship, etc. Telling someone you love them or see yourself developing a love for them is not only strange, but frightening. He/she will probably be freaked out and not want to further the relationship.

2. Talking about your exes or past relationship experiences

You're on the date to move on from your past, to open yourself up to new experiences and relationships. Your date could most likely care less about past relationships. After all, he/she is looking to impress you based on a different level of unique standards. Let them sell themselves to you!

3. Reveal too much about your sex life

Your sex life is your business and in due time should be your partner’s business as well. As you become comfortable with each other, sharing intimate details about your life becomes commonplace. However, the first date is not the time to mention that you’ve had so many different sex partners or intimate relationships with people. The person you’re on the date with won’t care; they’re concerned about themselves and the impression they’ll make. Keep that in mind!

4. Spreading your legs

Sex means everything to some people and nothing to others. There's an extremely wide spectrum of beliefs with regards to sex. But I think there's a mutual understanding that sex after the first date might create a different impression of you and your morals/values. Make them work for it; keep your legs closed on the first date ladies!

5. Dressing overly provocative

Be sexy. Make an impression. But keep in mind that there’s an extremely thin line between sexy and “slutty.” Dress to leave a lasting impression, but keep your date on his/her toes about your additional assets.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
