How to really lose a guy-on the first date

Loosing a guy on the first date is really a simple thing to do. It doesn't require any planning or special procedures. Just be creative and act as if everything is going well. Of course, it is not because you want to get rid of him as quickly as possible. Here are a few tips to loose a guy on the first date:

Rude behavior works very well. Chewing with your mouth full is something you can do. Constantly interrupting him and talking over him is a great way to get rid of a guy. Picking your nose and wiping whatever you found on your sleeve would send most men running. The possiblities are limitless.

Ask a lot of questions about how much money he makes. As he answers the questions, drop obvious hints that you love presents and surprises. When you aren't telling him you want a chunk a change from him, suggest ways he can make more money.

Be an unstoppable chatterbox. Breathe only when absolutely necessary when talking about absulutely nothing. Give him all the details of your mother's mental illness and how your shrink isn't concerned you have inherited any of her problems. Make sure he knows every detail of your made up life. Start with your first memory and don't leave out any details.

Take a book with you. Read aloud from the paperback romance you have tucked in your purse. A book of sonnets would also work in this situation. Or, simply sit back and read as he tries to get your attention.

Marriage should be mentioned in every sentence when you are trying to loose a guy on the first date. Tell him how much you want to have an entire baseball team of your own and you want to start on that big family as soon as possible. Let him know you were born to be a wife, his eternal soulmate.

Continually bring up your last boyfriend. Shed a few tears as you explain to him that he was doctor, donating his time in a foreign land, when he lost his life to some horrid disease. Tell him that this is the first time you've taken off the five carot emerald-cut diamand engagment ring he gave you. Don't forget about all the roses and cards he sent you. And, that trip to Austraila - just the two of you for three weeks.

Mention all of you money problems. Make his understand that just because you are three months behind on your rent your landlord should not be evicting you. Be sure and tell him that you would love to go Dutch with him, but the restaurant (movie theatre or wherever) you are going no longer takes your checks.

Whip out all the pictures of your kids. You have five; started having them when you were fifteen. All of them have different fathers, but you only married three of them. Two of those ex-husbands are in prison, so you have no child support. "You look like a great guy who would love my babies and make sure they would never want for anything," is a great line to use when getting rid of a man on the first date.

Tell him that you forget to bring your medication and you will need to cut the date short. Your list of sexually transmitted diseases should be long. Be sure to provide him information on the symptoms you suffer from on a daily basis.

When you use any or all of these ideas to get rid a guy on the first date, you are guaranteed to send him running to the hills. Politely wave good-bye as he trips over his own feet, fleeing the very sight of you. Just be sure he isn't the one. After a date like this, you will never win him back.
