It turns out that even America’s sweetheart, Reese Witherspoon, has had her fair share of unsuccessful dates, according to People. “I had someone correct my grammar on a blind date once, and I knew within the first 10 minutes that the date was over,” said Witherspoon.  “Even worse, I don’t even remember what I said — I probably said ‘ain’t.’  Just don’t correct my grammar.  I’m from Tennessee.  I probably say everything wrong.”  There you have it boys–lesson learned.  Never correct a southern girl’s grammar!What are things to avoid on a first date?
Cupid’s Advice:
First dates can be awkward, but Cupid has a few tips on what you should steer clear of on your first night out with someone new:
1. Don’t talk about yourself all night: A first date means getting to know each other. Â In between the nervous babbling about yourself, make sure to find out a few things about your date as well.
2. Don’t lie: No matter how much you want the other person to like you, be honest. Â You’ll never know how compatible you truly other with the person if you lie about yourself. Â Remember: the truth will come out eventually anyway.
3. Don’t look less than your best: Don’t show up like you just ran out of the shower or just got out of bed. Â When you look good, you feel good. Â You’re not only impressing your date, but you’re also boosting your own confidence.
