Things men shouldn't do on a date

It occurred to me that there are probably quite a few young men lurking out there, just wondering what in the world women want.

That second one reminded me of something a friend complained about recently- Don't swear until you know she's okay with it.
Don't cut a woman off or act bored when she's trying to talk to tell you something
Don't allow a woman to pay for the first date
Dont' talk about yourself the whole time without asking questions about her.
I forgot one, a big one in my book:
Do not take a phone call during the date. Do not text during the date. As a matter of fact, why not just leave the cell phone in the car?
I can understand taking one here or there after a relationship has been forged but on the first few dates? Big pet peeve of mine!

Be courteous to wait-staff, the 16 year old kid taking your money at the movie theatre, and the driver in front of you that you want to honk at or flip off.
Dont speed or be reckless. This includes consuming little alcohol to insure that you and I will make it home safely.

Dress like you would for your grandma. Nice neat clothing, cleanly shaven, and deoderized.
Take interest in me and dont try to be so overly impressive to get my attention and interest. Be yourself.
- don't, under any circumstances, talk about your ex
- don't be rude to the waiter
- don't flirt with the waitress and/or don't stare at the cocktail waitress's cleavage all night
- do chew with your mouth closed
- do hold up your end of the conversation
- don't be late, especially on a first date or a first meet from online
- do have a plan or at least an idea of where to go/what to do
- don't tell me about all the bar fights you've started (yes, this happened on my most recent date)
- do ask me questions about myself, it's not all about you

* Don't spend the whole date telling stories about drunken nights out with your buddies (more than one guy I've dated has been guilty of this)
* Don't look at the bill and complain about the price of
