Top 10 Things NOT To Do on a First Date


Listen Later

In this episode of The Omar K. Mills Show, Omar sits down with Lorenzo for a candid, humorous, and surprisingly thoughtful conversation about first dates—and the common mistakes that can quietly derail a potential relationship before it ever begins.

What starts as a “top 10” list quickly turns into a broader discussion about self-awareness, intentionality, and why dating isn’t about impressing someone, but about discernment. From oversharing and bad table manners to bringing family into the picture far too early, Omar and Lorenzo unpack how small choices reveal much bigger priorities.

This isn’t a checklist episode, and it’s not about rigid rules. It’s about learning how to show up as a grown adult who knows who they are, where they’re going, and what they’re actually looking for.

Along the way, the conversation touches on:

  • Why first dates should stay simple
  • The importance of manners, boundaries, and awareness
  • How oversharing can sabotage connection
  • Why dating is about gathering information, not giving everything away
  • The role of purpose and non-negotiables in choosing a partner

Equal parts practical and reflective, this episode reminds listeners that dating well isn’t about perfection—it’s about clarity, respect, and knowing what kind of partnership you’re actually pursuing.
