Does Your Date Have You "Seeing Red?"

Orchard Park, NY, (PRWEB) November 12, 2008 -- If you're constantly on your cell phone, rude to the waitress or indulge in too many beers on that first date, then you may be committing some serious dating deal breakers. According to a new survey* for ROHTO® eye drops, almost half (46 percent) of U.S. adults aged 18 and older would "see red" if their date "talks on a cell phone or texts during the date," while 43 percent reported that being with a date that "drinks too much" would cause them to "see red."
