Top 10 Signs That You’re Too Picky About Who You Date

How many first dates have you been on?

How many SECOND dates?

Could you be too picky?

Someone I hadn't seen for a while crossed my path at the gym the other day and she asked if anyone had managed to put a ring on my finger yet.

My answer? Nope.

Could I be too picky? Hmmm.

Here are the top ten signs that you're too picky as collected by the friendly folks over at HowAboutWe.com.

1. You've never dated anyone who didn't have an "annoying" laugh.

2. You've turned down more dates than you've been on. (This one doesn't count if you're in the food service industry.)

3. You often have decided that there won't be a second date before you go on the first.

4. You forgot your date's last name but remembered that he or she went to the bathroom more than once at dinner.

5. You say you have a "type," but are unable to elaborate on your type's defining characteristics when pressed.

6. You show up five minutes late and get upset when your date isn't there yet.

7. You could fill a "Dealbreaker a Day" desk calendar from your own personal supply.

8. You have an "All the good ones are gay or taken," bumper sticker. On your front door.

9. You've given your number to people then ignored their calls because they got in touch too quickly.

10. You've often said "He's/She's a little too... (insert vague gesture, noise and/or facial expression). You know what I mean?" (No. We don't.)

And here's a bonus sign:

11. You are always the rejector and never the rejectee. Except that one time when your date was being too picky. Which doesn't count.
