pricillia Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 If I'm not attracted to their mind, I'm not going to be attracted to them in bed. It's 95 degrees out --and humid--so not many are putting lipstick on to ride/walk/jog/skate. And those who actually venture out in this weather are not the glamour queens. And even if they did wear lipstick, you open your water bottle to fill it. You don't fill it through the mouthpiece. I say let men be men. when they invented water fountians they were meant to be drunk without all the accessories. Obviously these men are either working out and they are thirsty, and it feels good to drink cold water when thirsty. also glammor queens are not the only one's who wear lipstick. To clarify when I was mentioning a water bottle I mean a water bottle that you would buy from a store not a sports bottle.
KenzieAbsolutely Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 This is kind of a silly thread but here goes...is there ever some stupid little something or other that makes a person unattractive to you? I mean a trait or a habit so trivial and yet it turns you off for some reason...and sometimes you don't even know why. So if you feel like participating in my silly thread, what little quirks turn you off in a potential partner? this isn't a silly thread, it's kinda fun! i am immediately turned off by loud, rude eating sounds.....smacking, loud chewing, chewing with gobs of food so big it looks like you have a cheek-goiter. ya know, things of that nature. i also cannot tolerate constant sniffing.
pricillia Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 If I'm not attracted to their mind, I'm not going to be attracted to them in bed. so what your saying is if a man slurps and drinks from a water fountian he is stupid... LOL I am not picking on you just being silly...
underpants Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 I would never date a guy with a seventh toe on his left foot. This would be so rude. Oh no, you have just sealed your fate. You true love will have 7 toes. You will then have to ponder how everything else is so perfect and alas too many toes. What about 6? Would that be acceptable? I was on a date with a guy and he started pointing with his fork. I didn't like that. In my head I was screaming. Stop it, stop that. Oh no, not again.
Lizzie60 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 the sniffing... arrrghhh that gets on my nerves... and the 'proud-to-be-ignorant' loud idiots in public places... can't stand them.
Author uniqueone Posted August 4, 2007 Author Posted August 4, 2007 also glammor queens are not the only one's who wear lipstick. You misunderstood....I meant that the girls who HAVE to wear lipstick to work out in are not the ones working out in the 95 degree weather.
KenzieAbsolutely Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 oh, and i don't like when new people broadcast wealth. you can own an aston-martin, no problem, great in fact! but when you feel like you have to say "well, here we are at my aston-martin" it's like.....tacky, cheesy. the best way to have money is that even if everyone knows about it, it isn't spoken. that's just so classless. my father taught me well, i suppose, but it's unfortunate that most people don't know that it doesn't impress anyone (besides other stupid people) to act that way. you don't have to pretend you don't have what you have in order to be respected, of course, no way. but let other appreciate it on their own. i have an expensive car (not an a-m, unfortunately!) and a lot of people compliment me on it. there are some people who have the same car and do not get complimented on it because they are too busy complimenting themselves and trying to get attention with the car, which makes other people say "i don't care what kind of car you have, you're still a douchebag". know what i mean? jelly bean....
Lizzie60 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 you got me curious ...what kind of car do you have? Just tell me... I won't tell anyone... ssshhhh!
allina Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 my friend Janet has this quirk she hates in men. The way they put their cutlery when they finish a meal. I kid you not. That's not that crazy. Placing your flatware correctly to show that you are done eating a meal is a part of having good table manners.

Chinook Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 That's not that crazy. Placing your flatware correctly to show that you are done eating a meal is a part of having good table manners. hee hee! When she told me, I didn't think it was that crazy either! The guys who share our office (there are four of them) all think we're crazy and that's why we're single!! Hmmm, they might have a point there.

playabum17 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 One of the worst dates I was one was a 'blind date' we had spoken on the phone only and when he picked me up the first words out of this mouth were 'if you want to change your mind, I'll understand'....talk about a turn-off! Have a smidgen of self confidence! The entire night he would tell me how beautiful/wonderful/nice I was...then say "why are you with me?" I was never so happy to have date be over with. He was not amazingly attractive, but not bad either, but his attitude/confidence was a total buzzkill.

Not that I would date one. Not the fork... Why didn't you reach over and stick a piece of bread onto it? :lmao:
katiebour Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Lack of self-confidence is an enormous turn-off for me. Also goes hand-in-hand with depression, also another turn-off. Statements like "I've just been so unhappy since my ex left me, I feel like no one else will ever care about me" or "How can I please you? I'm sorry about accidentally bumping your plate, I apologize profusely, forgive me, I'm worthless" are not very attractive. Little quirks that are turn offs? Well I really hate guys who wear white tennis shoes. Especially while wearing slacks. I don't know why, but they just look so juvenile and classless to me. Even with jeans I despise them. Get some snappy black or brown dress shoes already! Nervous twitching or high-pitched giggling are deal-breakers. I had a first date with a guy that did both- and he wore white tennis shoes!!! Needless to say I never went out with him again.

tom27 Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Someone who doesn't follow through with what they say they will. Especially when they say they will call back later and they don't. When someone tells me they will do something, I hold them to it.

Author uniqueone Posted August 5, 2007 Author Posted August 5, 2007 +1 Turn Offs Ladies that wear too much makeup. (You should never be afraid to not wear makeup, however, certain occasions call for it) Why do men say this, and yet when I go out of the house without makeup, I don't get looked at twice? I think what men mean is "women who look good without makeup should never be afraid not to wear makeup." This would be your women with proportional, clearly defined features, naturally tannish skin and dark eyelashes and eyebrows. If you're a woman with not so defined features, pale skin and lashes and brows you can't even see, they ain't gonna give you a second look. Ladies that forget I AM A MAN I DO DISGUSTING STUFF ITS MY NATURE No, it's not. It's because no one ever taught you any better. Feminists - I am sorry ladies.... No matter what you say, we are not equal. We both have strengths and we both have weaknesses Feminists don't claim that the two sexes are identical. Turn ons Ladies that let you dress them (really!

Antha Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 I don't like when they are eating (men OR women) and they drop food on their shirt. I feel like rolling my eyes. I think its because my mom does this ALL the time, then scoops it up with her index finger and pops it in her mouth instead of using a napkin. Still, it disgusts me with anyone. Walking in front of me slllowwwly. Again, ANYONE does this and I get annoyed. Its usually worse in a confined space (like a hallway or on stairs where you can't get around them) and you just want to give them a shove to move faster. I don't mind being dressed or dressing someone else. I think its kind of fun, really. Men and women both do disgusting things (everybody farts and burps)...but I prefer they either do it silently or in another room (farting). I don't mind burps and belches at all, so long as its followed by an "excuse me".

If you're a woman with not so defined features, pale skin and lashes and brows you can't even see, they ain't gonna give you a second look. I have a friend that obsessively checks her makeup like 10 times an hour. That is more of what I am talking about. To GET the guy, you are correct, makeup helps. I have a woman that I am madly in love with, and she is not bashful at all about not wearing makeup around me. She does not have "perfect skin," nor do I expect her to have it. However, she does wear makeup sometimes when we go out. I think it is sexy for a woman to "let it all hang out" like that. It shows me that she is secure in how she looks. *EDIT* Actually, I think it would be cool if she taught me how to do her makeup, and I could make her up too. But I think that would be kind of strange. I'll have to think about that one a bit more. No, it's not. It's because no one ever taught you any better. Heh, that was a poke at all the men. Just making stereotypical fun. Feminists don't claim that the two sexes are identical. Well, so long as she doesn't mind my need to be her valiant knight in shining armor, then I guess I wouldn't mind dating a feminist. It's not that she NEEDS it, its my way of showing her how much she means to me. (I think its a southern thing too.) I open doors for her, I hold her hand to help her out of the vehicle, I pull her chair out for her, I don't eat until she does, I stand up when she arrives at the table, etc. Basically, she should feel protected and kept. I orient myself around her to project that aura to her. Again, it's not that she needs me to do this, it's just that I think it makes men feel more masculine and women feel more feminine. Let's you dress them? Isn't that what Barbie dolls are for? Hehe, I am not really talking about the actual "dressing" part like you would dress a baby or kid, I am talking more of like buying and maintaining her wardrobe, and selecting the attire for an event or date. It's more about helping each other look their best. My thought here is that she is looking at me more than I look at myself, and I am looking at her more than she looks at herself. If I select my attire, I am thinking about comfort for the most part. If she selects my attire, she is thinking about what looks good on me. I would think that she would feel good about seeing me in clothes that she picked out, and I would most definitely enjoy seeing her in what I picked out. I think it is kind of erotic to go out and buy each other clothes. (Even just normal clothes.) And I think it brings two people closer together. It also has the benefit of the longer you are together the more well dressed you both become. *Edit* This reminds me of the old couple that are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. When asked how they successfully stayed married for so long. The man said that he buys all of her clothes for her, thats how.
EYECANDY000 Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Ha, well mine isnt so much of one who chews loud, farts, or they dont have their utensils a certain way. I hate when a guy is constanly asking me "what am I thinking"? Now I agree the brain is always working even when your not. But what if I am completely just day dreaming and thinking about absolutely nothing.. I know an expression says a thousand words, but what if Im not making an expression that would give u the impression that I am concentrating on something.. If you ask once fine, but all day, sheeeeesh!! its so funny because when a guy constantly ask that question and Im in my day dream stage, now I have to lie and pretend I am thinking about something.. Silly me!
Maags Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I am laughing and laughing reading about the turn-offs and turn-ons here on this thread. Joke: How do you know if someone's a redneck ? They put their fork and knife at 10 minutes to two on the plate after a meal. hahahahaha ! God I hate the single scene ! So many people, so many ways to be rejected !
Trialbyfire Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I'm enjoying the single's scene, although I'm only dating one guy non-exclusively. It's nice not to be responsible to anyone for anything. I'm tempted to be single forever. As for turnoffs, men with no manners. If you do something for them and there's no thanks or thank-you, it's so incredibly rude.
