So....I'm a rude date....I've been guilty of at least three of these things!!! Oh boy....

1. You arrive late for a date or change plans last minute instead of honoring your date's feelings and your commitment to be together as planned.

2. You stare at attractive people who pass by or allow distractions of cell phones, text messages and/or silent vibes to interrupt your dating conversation instead of devoting your full attention to your date.

3. You exaggerate your accomplishments and dating goals in hopes of getting 'bizzy' instead of being honest about your life.

4. You bog down the mood with heavy, negative stories from your past instead of starting fresh and creating exciting new stories on your own with your new   potential love match.

5. You pressure a commitment quickly or invite a date to an event two months later instead of allowing time to get to know each other and discovering if   you can create a solid dating relationship.

6. You use electronic communication to confirm dates or to keep track of your date's online dating activities instead of making a human connection your priority   and dealing with dating issues face-to-face.

7. You control conversations with a monologue about yourself instead of finding common ground, asking about your date and becoming an active listener as an   act of love.

8. You pass judgment, put down your date's dreams or suggest that your date change to fit your ideals instead of accepting your date — quirks and all —   as you determine if you are a compatible love match.

9. You criticize your date's family or physical flaws that can't be changed instead of commenting on their strengths, special qualities and the ways you bring out the best in each other.

10. You talk about how busy you are with work and family obligations instead of making room in your life for love and making a new priority of your loving relationship.
