No Halfwaysies
They say that first impressions mean a lot, which is completely true. If you show up at a job interview and pick your nose in the middle of a question, the interviewers are going to immediately scratch your name off the list of candidates.
The same (sort of) goes for dating. If you’re not willing to meet your date halfway to the restaurant, then you’re letting him know that you’re not going to meet him halfway in anything else during your relationship. So, congrats for shooting yourself in the foot there. First dates don’t mean having to go all out for either party.
