8 Sentences You Never Want To Hear On A First Date The following phrases are definite red flags! By Andrew Fixell

When embarking on a first date, it's always best to keep things fun and lively. But once in awhile, a dater will become a bit too comfortable, blurting out something he or she will totally regret later. Other times, that verbal diarrheaist simply doesn’t care what others think, and will speak unapologetically and without a filter. Although honesty is crucial to the success of any relationship, there are a few sentences that, when uttered, give an undeniable indication of just how much baggage a person is likely carrying (i.e. lots).

If the following eight lines don't automatically make you run for the hills…well, they should:

"Donald Trump is right about those [insert race here]."

There is nothing wrong with being passionate, or even supporting a controversial viewpoint. There is something wrong, however, with having racist or sexist views.
Even worse is expressing intensely provocative political or religious beliefs on a first date. Leave the questionable commentary to the public figures who are already known for it – or at the very least, wait until your third date.

"Hold on, let me just Instagram this Asian-Ethiopian Fusion Taco.”

Open-minded, adventurous, and internationally cultured people are generally fantastically attractive. But unapologetically fixated, gourmet-obsessed Foodies are often intolerable. Meanwhile, social media addicts are maddeningly frustrating to communicate with. Mix these two personality types together, and you've got a recipe for disaster.

"Can’t you just make some buttered noodles?”

The only thing undeniably worse than being a foodie is being a picky eater.

Gluten or nut allergies are beyond human control, and ethical or health-based dietary choices should be respected. But a person who requires every kitchen to bend over backwards for him or her is exhibiting some seriously high maintenance attributes. Plus, who eats buttered noodles, anyway? Gross.

“I guess you could say I’m 'between' marriages.”

There's nothing wrong with dating a divorcee -- in fact, someone who's already experienced marriage can be much wiser and more mature than someone who has not.
But unless this person is clearly making a joke, using the phrase "between marriages" indicates that he or she is actively scouting for spouse #3, 4, or 5. Serial divorcees are the serial killers of relationships – avoid dating someone who's obsessed with finding his or her "next soulmate."

“What do you mean, you don’t love EDM?”

I’m not a fan of most electronic music, and plenty of people aren't fans of some of the music I listen to. But just because someone doesn’t appreciate your taste in music, film, television or visual art doesn’t mean you have to listen to their narrow-minded, uninformed criticism. Thoughtful artistic debates can be enlightening and stimulating – blind intolerance, however, is just ugly.

“I don’t do television.”

Yes, I've actually heard this statement before. Which prompted me to question, "What scarred this person so badly that led them to completely shun an entire form of nearly universally beloved entertainment?" Remember: Game of Thrones, Orange Is The New Black, and The Walking Dead are just 30 minutes short of acceptable feature film length. Welcome to the 21st century!

“I gotta get back to the rehab facility before they realize I'm gone.”

It’s great when an addict is willing to get help; not so great when an addict isn't taking his or her sobriety seriously. When a person's own health is being disregarded for the sake of a social life, then clearly that person isn't ready for the responsibility of a serious relationship with another person. More importantly, do you really want to date someone in the middle of an intense emotional and physical rehabilitation? Wait until your date has completed treatment.

“Well, some people consider it a cult…”

A review of the book 'four loves' by c.s.lewis

"We need others physically, emotionally, intellectually; we need them if we are to know anything, even ourselves." We hear often that love is patient and kind, not envious or prideful. We hear that human love is a reflection of divine love. We hear that God is love. But how do we understand its work in our lives, its perils and rewards? Here, the incomparable C. S. Lewis examines human love in four forms: affection, the most basic, general, and emotive; friendship, the most rare, least jealous, and, in being freely chosen, perhaps the most profound; Eros, passionate love that can run counter to happiness and poses real danger; charity, the greatest, most spiritual, and least selfish. Proper love is a risk, but to bar oneself from it--to deny love--is a damning choice. Love is a need and a gift; love brings joy and laughter. We must seek to be awakened and so to find an Appreciative love through which "all things are possible." " The Four Loves  deserves t...

MOMENTS with YOU By Dennis and Barbara Rainey

June 16 Out in the Open The man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed. Genesis 2:25 Being "naked" but "not ashamed." This is why we get married—not just to have sex, but also to become emotionally intimate with another person. We want someone we can be openly transparent with, someone who accepts us, even when we're being our real selves. Yet although this is what our souls long for, many couples—especially young couples—hide this need behind the mere act of sexual togetherness. They find having sex easier than opening up to each other spiritually, where the potential for hypocrisy and awkwardness always exists. Sex can be easier than opening up emotionally, letting someone else in on their fears and worries and dreams and deepest feelings. That's why, even when the level of sexual intimacy is high in a marriage, the level of real transparency can still be surprisingly low... and subtly debilitating....

Romantic Words For Him By Alexandra Fox

Sometimes, I give lectures and seminars   to groups of women around the country.   Mostly small groups of less than 50   women, but I still have a lot of fun   meeting them and listening to their love   problems -- and giving them   life-changing solutions!   After giving these talks for several   years, I've learned something very   important -- the way I speak to my   audience has a big effect on how they   respond to me. And certain words have a   much bigger effect on them than others.   It's not just me, either -- I've also   realized, especially during our open   forums, that virtually every woman in   the world "talks" to herself. This   self-talk is often unconscious, and --   unfortunately -- it's also often sad and   depressive. Many of my clients look at   themselves small -- "I'm not pretty,"   "I'm not sexy enough," "I'm not as smart   as I w...
