First Dates is back on Channel 4, and as several blind daters met in a restaurant and tried to woo each other, the good people of Twitter had some words of wisdom for them.
1. Don’t leave your phone on the table
That's so rude. You should put your phone away whenever in the company of others especially on dates #FirstDates

She's more worried about being rude to someone on the phone than the person she's supposed to be on a date with… #firstdates

2. Remember your date’s name
Loving how all these dates are forgetting each other's names#fir 😂 @C4FirstDates #firstdates

3. Leave your waitress out of it
You would not tell the waitress you like your date and tell them you think he doesn't like you. Would you? I wouldn't 😂 #firstdates

4. Say things other than sexual innuendos
Says she wants a lad that doesn't use her just for sex then spends the whole date making sexual innuendos lol ye doin well love👍 #firstdates

5. Patting your date’s head is patronising
The way she patted his head, talk about friend zone #FirstDates

6. Don’t treat dating like house hunting
'For the right person I would be prepared to compromise.'Natasha,it's a relationship not an episode of LocationLocationLocation.#FirstDates

7. Never use this chat up line
Is your last name Jacobs? Because you're a cracker 😂 #firstdates

8. Don’t respond to someone saying they have small feet with this comment
I've got really small feet…"you know what that means" she says suggestively. Ummmm that you're gunna be really disappointed? #FirstDates

9. Try not to insult the clothes they’ve bought especially for the date
Turtleneck or V-Neck….Where do you stand? #firstdates pic.twitter.com/HrZg2VlZSo
