Table manners & mangy breath identified as key dating deal-breakers
NANAIMO — Before you head out on your Valentine’s Day date, pop a mint and brush up on your table manners.
A Research Co. poll conducted in late January surveyed 1,000 adults across the country, asking a range of questions from first date deal breakers to reasons why people would break off a longer-term relationship.
Mario Canseco, president of Research Co. said two main issues arose as key reasons people will look for love elsewhere.
“You might be a fantastic prospect if somebody’s looking at your picture on a dating website, but if you have bad breath or not the table manners people expect of you, you’re not going to get a second date.”
