1. You looked NOTHING like your picture on your online dating profile.
If the girl has some sort of weird camera angle in her online dating  pictures, guys: turn and run. There is usually a good reason why a girls  pictures look like Pablo Picasso arose from the dead, bought a cheap  $25 digital camera and decided to experiment with photography. I am not  trying to be mean here, it’s just that everyone in life has different  preferences in the opposite sex. As cheap and shallow as it may seem, I  want to have a fairly good idea of what you look like before we go out.  Still think I’m being mean? Look at it this way: If you were in line  behind me at the grocery store and we made eye contact and you found  yourself not physically attracted to me, would you be inclined to carry  on a conversation with me and give me your phone number at the end? It  works both ways, sweetheart.
2. Yack yack yack
Is there anything more rude than answering your cell phone and yacking  away with your girlfriend while out on a date? I understand if your Aunt  Martha fell down a flight of stairs and forget to recharge the  batteries in her life-alert bracelet and she just happened to be  carrying her new iPhone in her pocket with your number on speed dial….I  really do. But when your girlfriend calls you in the middle of our date  and you start blabbing away about what you did last night for more than 5  minutes, I find myself slowly reaching into my pocket to fake a phone  call from my Uncle John who happened to fall down a flight of stairs  with his discharged life-alert bracelet and his new iPhone…
3. I am not sure whether to buy you dinner or ask your hourly rate.
I realize you may have certain “assets” on your body. Most women do. And  being a guy, I do like eye candy. But if I am looking for a potential  relationship out of you….there is nothing that will make me turn tail  and run than if you come dressed with your boobs half hanging out in a  short miniskirt and flirt with every guy that you see. (prolonged eye  contact with other males does indeed constitute “flirting”). I realize  that I may have broken the “guy code” here by telling women to cover up,  but it is not what it seems. When guys (at least me and my friends) are  looking for a potential relationship with a female we are interested  in, we want to know (or at least think) that our girl is as pure as the  driven snow when she is out in public.
4. Say you, Say me, Say it for always, that’s the way it should be…
If during the course of normal conversation the lyrics to the above  Lionel Richie song start popping into my mind, I find myself looking for  any excuse to end the date. I am not a male model, but I do realize  that some women find me pretty attractive/borderline “good looking”. If  while talking to me your eye gaze starts suggesting that I should don a  1980’s JerryCurl and neon Miami Vice overcoat and get down on my knees  and start singing you a ballad, I’m outta there man. Read this article  and hit “crtl” “f” on your keyboard and enter in “eye contact” to take  you to the part of the article that dictates how proper eye contact  should happen. Great, now I got that stupid song stuck in my head.
5. Pull my finger…
I am sorry, I realize that ladies do act like ladies most all of the  time. But if you accidentally “let one go” and it is audible enough to  ring the bell on the church 5 miles away….that just killed it. I realize  that accidents do happen, but…..still. You might be able to salvage the  date if there is a dog nearby and you deftly try to blame it on the  dog. I am a big 3 Stooges fan, so the comedic value just might outweigh  the shock value. A perfectly executed “Curly Shuffle” afterwards will  result in bonus points.
6. I’m feelin’ it, you facial expressions and body language show otherwise, but deep down inside, you really are.
Guys are not mind readers. When I go out on a first date with a girl, I  am a little bit nervous. Even though I can cover it up really well, I am  most likely walking on broken eggshells until I find that comfort zone.  During the course of the date I try to watch a girl’s facial  expressions and body language to get a guage on whether or not I might  get rejected if I ask her out on a second date. If I am not getting any  perceivable signs that she is interested, chances are I won’t call you  back or write you another email. I hate getting rejected and probably  most guys do too. I have had more than a few girls call me back after I  neglected to call them back after the first date, telling me how big of  an “a-hole” I was for “leading them on”. Well if they had shown me some  sign (any sign !!) that they were in the least bit interested in me,  then I would have. Guys fear rejection too, ladies.
7. I just wasn’t feeling it
I really can’t break this one down any further. I am sure this goes  both-ways without saying. If I am “not feeling it”, I will not lead you  on, and you will know that it just isn’t happening for me. I would only  hope that you have the same courtesy to do that to me instead of leading  me on.
8. Red Flags
I am writing this “top 10″ list from the perspective of a guy who is  looking for a relationship. If I was looking for anything else, I would  probably not be as picky. I look for little “red flags” in women that  suggest certain things/traits that I am not looking for. It’s a  scientific fact that some women lie. I don’t know why this is, nor do I  know the name of the scientist that made this incredible discovery. You  will have to trust me on this one. So when I am out on a date, I  purposely ask carefully worded questions during the course of normal  conversation. If something isn’t adding up, I will slowly but surely  zone in on the area that I don’t like, which brings us to reason #9:
9. Rule of 3
I am probably going to get shot by the “man counsel” for giving out this  little gem, but a general rule of thumb (intelligent discretion must be  applied) is that you take the amount of men that a girl says she has  slept with, and multiply it by 3. I realize that there may be other  formulas for this one….but my hippie community college professor once  told me to stick with the rule of 3. Why am I telling you this? Because  when I am looking for a relationship with a girl, I don’t want to know  how many men you slept with (but i do). Does this make sense to you  ladies? If not, then my work here is done.
We now come to the final (and most  important) reason why men never call women back after the first date.  This will undoubtably go down in history and will make me untold  millions of dollars and I will be featured on Dr. Phil and Jerry  Springer.
The last and most important reason why men don’t call women back after the first date:
10. There was a good football game on t.v. the next day and we plain forgot.
To the author/owner of this website, I can only give you one piece of advice here. You need to lower your standards, sweetheart.
To all the women who are wondering why a  guy never called them back, I have just one piece of advice: FORGET  ABOUT IT. There is a reason (be it good/bad or otherwise) why the guy  didn’t call you back. Maybe he didn’t like you, maybe he did like you  and is too shy to call you back, maybe he lost his cellphone that had  your number on it. Whatever the reason, he isn’t calling you back. Get  over it and move on. There are WAY too many proverbial fish in the sea  to get all worried and bent out of shape because a guy didn’t call you  back. I can’t even begin to count how many women in my life haven’t  called me back. It’s just the name of the dating game and the nature of  the beast. Cry yourself a river then build a bridge and get over it.
