OnlyJake Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Women, which is the biggest turn off in a guy? He can't change a tire without calling for help.He asks what you like to do on a date instead of having a plan of his own.He waits too long to try to kiss you.He looks at other girls when he's with you. I read this list somewhere and was curious what others think of it.
txsilkysmoothe Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 4. He looks at other girl's when he is with you
Jersey Shortie Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 4. He looks at other girls when he's with you.
Author OnlyJake Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 4. He looks at other girl's when he is with you 4. He looks at other girls when he's with you. I would find that annoying and rude and I wouldn't go out with that guy again...but it's not my biggest turn off from that list. If he had all the right things going for him, other than that, it wouldn't be a turn off - I'd still be attracted to him.

Ruby Slippers Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 He looks at other girls when he's with you. I have accepted that most men do it. As long as he's not obvious and rude about it, I can live with it. But, honestly, it is always a little dagger in the heart.
GAchasen Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Yes Yes Yes...hate it...very aggravating to me.
Jersey Shortie Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Ruby, I've also accepted that most men do it but it is still a dagger into the heart. getting men to understand that is futile...but i do know men who are able to be happy and engaged with the woman with them, instead of all the women that aren't. I think if men spent more time envovled wit hthe woman they have, they probably would be getting mroe sex. But they stupidly spread their attention and get exactly what they deserve..cold partners. They shoot themselves in the foot everytime!
2sure Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 In order fo rme from worst to just bad would be #4, #2, #3, and #1. I dont really care if he can change a tire or not because I can.

They shoot themselves in the foot everytime! I agree with that sentiment; however I think women do it to men too. Maybe not by being engaged with other men, but definitely by not appreciating their partners, etc. Both genders just show lack of appreciation in different ways. Same results though.
O'Malley Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 He looks at other girls when he's with you. I'm fine with window shopping (I do it on occasion and I'm sure my bf does as well) but it's impolite to do so in front of your partner.
xpaperxcutx Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 4. But then again, I don't shy away from looking at other guys as well. At the end of the day, if he plays his cards right, he's getting a second date. Otherwise, I'm never reluctant to say " next".
Author OnlyJake Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 In order fo rme from worst to just bad would be #4, #2, #3, and #1. I dont really care if he can change a tire or not because I can. #1 is the biggest turn off for me! I associate that with practicality, the ability to take care of friends and family, work with their hands, not afraid to get dirty....SEXY! I agree that all of them are annoying...
Zeegagge Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I was hoping more women would say the tire thing. I'm extremely handy and feel sometimes it's a guys place to take care of a stranded SO, and to just handle the 'man's work' when the time comes.

ALL men HAVE to know how to change a tire. I couldn't imagine being with my girl and getting a flat...getting all nervous, looking at the car's instruction manual starting to cry....ect ect. Or get Triple AAA. I guess I wouldn't have to worry about woman getting turned off from me in that aspect..hehhe.. I could change a CV axle joint on the side of the road if I needed to. I'm surprised that you ladies are turned off mostly by guys "lookin" I mean..we all do it..every single guy does it..yes he can be rude about it sometimes, but it happens and I hope with my girl we can just slap each other(jokingly) if one our eye's goes wandering lol. Don't tell me you woman don't "look" heck..you all even look at other woman according to the Megan Fox thread hehe;)
Stung Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Oh, I do like a man who is good with his hands, it's a plus for attraction, but if he can't he can't and it doesn't really detract from an overall good thing. I can change a tire myself, and hey, there's always Triple A. If I'm with a man and I can tell his focus is wandering to other women, however, that is like a blow to the solar plexus. It makes me feel unappreciated, undervalued. Do not want. #4. I don't even see what's wrong with #2, unless it was such a constant thing it was reflective of him having no mind or will of his own, then obviously that would be a problem. But unless it's extreme...well, I have a lot of fun ideas and I know how I like to spend my free time, why would I mind if he asked me what I wanted to do? Seems considerate to me.

Payden Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I have AAA, I don't need a man who has it also! I want one who can do those things without making a phone call!! Well I made a phone call when I snapped my timing belt 70 miles from home ... I called my sister and said.. "come get me" lmao... After paying the tow service 200 dollars to get my car home...it was Triple AAA from there on out. I have the RV platinum one, because I travel a lot in the summers. But the opposite... I seriously love girls that can change a tire:love: or not afraid to learn.

Well of course everyone should know certain things, like how to change a tire, change the oil, check tire pressure, check (most) fluid levels....but that doesn't mean it's not hot when a guy knows how to do it! Especially these days when everything is so "specialized" so no one has to know how to do anything, and everyone has cell phones!
donnamaybe Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Biggest turn off is #1, biggest P-off, however, is #4.

I bet a lot of men....and boyz, are now going outside to learn how to change a tire lmao.
2sure Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Here, funny story and it completely relates ( I think). Within 3 months of dating, current H and I are about 2 hours from home at a club kind of isolated. It was late, we were leaving because I was exhausted. He hits a curb, blows a tire. Calls the auto service, its a Saturday night but he has premium coverage and says they will come quick. They dont. We go back in for another drink. Still no show. I KNOW he doesnt want me to know he cant change the tire, I KNOW he doesnt expect me to know how, and I dont want to bust his chops. In fact, I'm pretty sure a busboy would do it for 20 bucks but...right, he doesnt want to admit he needs help. I tell him, look - lets just get the spare & the jack out so we are ready when they arrive. He does, and says he is going in to use the mens room. Meanwhile, I change the tire and get back in the car. He comes out, sees it, doesnt SAY A WORD, and we drive away. It was never mentioned again.
and.then.some Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I wouldn't call 3 a "turn off", and it certainly wouldn't be a deal breaker. 2 and 4 would be the worst, but depending. If I caught him just looking I probably wouldn't think twice about it. Ogling or maintaining eye contact is disrespectful. It would be a turn off and a deal breaker. Asking me out without having plans wouldn't be a huge deal, so long as he was able to come up with something. The guy who repeatedly says "It really doesn't matter, whatever you want to do" I usually don't go out with (again). Not being able to change a tire is pretty bad lol. If everything else about him was great, (while a bit of a turn off) this wouldn't be a deal breaker. But if he didn't know the difference between a socket wrench and a combination wrench, I'd have to sign him up for a class at Home Depot or something.

LOL for me I'd have been beyond embarrassed and I imagine he was to a point. Way to handle it. Then again I've changed out a clutch and a cylinder head in an apartment parking lot, done my own body work, refinished my own guitars... Anyway I'm just the handyman type. I have a very good friend who I wouldn't trust with a screwdriver. He has absolutely no mechanical skills. He's tried but it's just not in his genes. In fact my dad was a bit that way too. Mom did most of the painting etc round the house. So apparently for many women it ain't no thing though it did annoy my mom sometimes. She just accepted him the way he was.
hoping2heal Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Women, which is the biggest turn off in a guy? He can't change a tire without calling for help.He asks what you like to do on a date instead of having a plan of his own.He waits too long to try to kiss you.He looks at other girls when he's with you. I read this list somewhere and was curious what others think of it. The biggest turn off is number 4, followed by number 1, then 2 and 3 are neutral; they may or may not be all that big of a turn off depending on the situation.
