tigressA Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 What are your silliest deal-breakers? When I say deal-breakers I mean things that will, at the very least, make you seriously reconsider going out with someone again, or at all. Be as ridiculous and out-there as you want to be. Here are some of mine. --liking Nickelback --liking country music --texting all the time --wearing denim shorts --wearing sandals with socks --wearing excessively baggy or tight clothing --wearing "bling" --blond hair --hair longer than shoulder-length --bald --big, thick lips --goatees, mustaches, chin straps and soul patches --southern accent

Author tigressA Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 people who glorify cocaine abuse in the AV HIYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :lmao::lmao: You still miss the puppies.
mo mo Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 :lmao::lmao: You still miss the puppies. but of course anyways i'll come right out and say it: i'm big on physique. If the girl is out of shape it's a dealbreaker I know I know, people are gonna call me shallow, but the truth is I work super hard, and my physique is a result of that. I can't really date someone who is complacent/lazy.
vsmini Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 I don't think this is silly at all but I've been told by many girlfriends that my dealbreak is silly -maintaining any kind of contact with the ex Yea - I'm just so controlling with that one. Meanwhile it's the same girls that are constantly getting screwed over by their guys who still talk to their ex's. The girls want to come off as sweet and understanding but deep down they fume over the fact that their guys still do it. At least I avoid shoving down my resentment and just make it clear from the get-go.
Kamille Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 --blond hair Really??? Mine: -- Is right-wing. Yep, that about sums it up.
iris219 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 I agree with several of yours TigressA—liking Nickelback, jean shorts, socks with sandals should be dealbreakers for most people! 1. Extreme love of cornhole 2. Having a name I don’t like 3. Northern accent (I have a hard time watching movies set in Boston because of the accent). 4. Frat boy habits in their 30’s (like beer pong) 5. Dressing like they’re coming from work ALL the time (khakis, tucked in shirt) 6. Uses a lot of product in their hair 7. Picky and/or unadventurous eaters 8. Bad tippers 9. Weird/annoying laugh 10. Watching TV is one of their favorite pastimes 11. Wears too much cologne (I prefer none)

Wears too much cologne (I prefer none) UGH! #7 Picky and/or unadventurous eaters My current boyfriend would only eat like 4 things when we met....we live in NYC and he moved here from the midwest. Getting him to come out with me to certain restaruants was like pulling teeth. It really, really bugged me at first. He wouldn't eat anywhere except chains! No honey - this is Manhattan - we aren't eating at Olive Garden every weekend. He's opened up and now tries all sorts of things...thank god.
Eclypse Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 For me it's if they are overly religious and try to force it down my throat.

Author tigressA Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 Really??? Mine: -- Is right-wing. Yep, that about sums it up. Yeah, I can't stand blond hair. I think it's ugly. And if the guy has highlights or tips...ugh, that's even worse. Adding that one to the list. And right-wing too. Iris, I'm with you on the frat boy behavior too. Beer pong = Ick. I had more than my fill of skanky basement parties in college.
youngskywalker Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 divorced more than once. treats her dogs like a human being mall rat goes clubbing every weekend can't leave the house without make-up is a germaphobe..... I could never be with a germaphobe

It's really annoying when adults insist on eating like 5 year olds! I'm glad your BF was willing to try new foods. I'm kinda of a foodie, so if a guy won't even TRY something new, I don't think I could date him.

I'm kinda of a foodie, so if a guy won't even TRY something new, I don't think I could date him. I had to explain to him what fondue was. Oh me, oh my. We went to a french restaurant the very next week. He looked like he was about to meet my parents or something. He liked it and now he's open to lots of things. The power of fondue.
Cee Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 I ended it with someone because I didn't like his dog. But he dog constantly snapped at me and bit me once (drew blood). And the guy wouldn't take the dog in for training. That was the meanest Labrador Retriever I ever met. Poor dog wasn't right in the head.
iris219 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 hmm seems like a long list but I can see how that stuff is kinda unattractive. I don't get how jean shorts are unattractive tho. Guys wearing jean shorts=so 1990's

I cringe if I hear a guy compare sushi to bait. I know we'll never date!
Author tigressA Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 Guys wearing jean shorts=so 1990's Agreed. My dad still wears them all the time. I'm a bit of a picky eater but I was never bailed on for it. I guess some guys don't see that as important. I used to be far, far worse than I am now. I used to not like pizza!

EasyHeart Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 My only dealbreaker is women who have dealbreakers.

God, how can you not like pizza?! *said with a southern accent, which I do have...haha I guaran-dang-tee it I could get you to like me
Author tigressA Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 --would pay to see a Michael Bay movie --is obsessed with sports --drinks a lot of coffee and/or soda --needs to always have the newest gadgets

Lilmisus Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 A guy I had a tiny crush on recently, joined a few friends and me at a pool and hot tub the other day, and when everyone got in, he just sat next to it and said that he "doesn't do water" and refused to go in. That was a deal breaker for me, since I practically live in the water.
