You Don't Trust Your Initial Impression of Him
Believe it or not, first impressions are important. If he comes across as sketchy at first, then you should trust your gut. It might be telling you something that your heart can't see.
You Don't Want to Believe That Most Dates Won't Lead to Relationships
Unfortunately, you can't expect every date you go on to lead to an actual relationship. Sometimes, going out with someone will be a one-time thing, and that's okay. You don't want to date the wrong guy for you.
You Don't Focus Enough on Your Relationship with Yourself
You can't focus so heavily on your relationship with a boy that you forget about your relationship with yourself. You need to have some "me" time to relax, and learn about yourself. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but it's incredibly important.
You Forgo Asking the Tough Questions up Front
It's awkward to ask him about STDs and his exes, especially when you first meet him, but those topics are important. There are certain things you should know about him as soon as possible.
You Stay in Relationships That Are Going Nowhere — and It Becomes a Cycle
If you can't see a future with the boy you're dating, then why are you still with him? You should find someone else who is willing to give you everything that you want and more.
You Don't Get Yourself out There Enough

You'll never find a boyfriend if you refuse to talk to boys. You have to put yourself out there. It's scary, but it's necessary if you want to find love.
You Hate on Men
Not all men are the same. Don't lump them all into one category, because some of them are actually worth your time and effort. You just have to search for them.
