It's funny how many people say they aren't into blondes. My guy is a blonde and he's super sexy. :love:

 

Mine are:

 

*No smoking

*No one with allergies to animals

*No religious fanatics.

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.

 

No me either! perhaps it's the country/area your from. I'm from nice and toasty Australia and you'd be cutting about 98% of the female population down in our sunshine state if you said no to denim shorts.

 

(i'm talking 16-25 year olds and people who aren't overweight as most of those people tend to dress for their figure and denim shorts arent usualy that flattering)

hm I have no idea what my deal breakers are.

 

I don't have any small things. it's just that I want to enjoy spending time with them.

 

my ex boyfriend and still best friend/soul mate doesn't have the things on paper that i need, but he made me so happy on the inside that it stops mattering.

 

i mean IDEALLY

 

they would not -

 

wear tinted moisteriser, have hair care products bar shampoo and conditioner, like emo or screamo music and would love all sorts of cuisine.

 

but at the end of thed ay if i met someone i clicked with who didn't have a car and liked to use hairspray. it probably wouldn't be a big deal.

No Yankees or Red Sox fans.

Attention seeking behaviors are deal breakers for me. Stuff like texting pictures of themselves, fishing for compliments, seeking reassurance, etc. I REALLY hate that crap.

Posted

Kind of funny how the topic is silliest deal breakers, and people are mentioning things like major character flaws and drug use and smoking.

 

Inability to follow simple instructions should be added to that list.

 

And I'm not sure if it's silly or not, but if the woman has even the slightest resemblance to my sister or mother, in any way, that breaks the deal for me.

Don't worry alpha--some of us like them. I don't like them with a business suit though.

 

My deal breakers are men with a loud laugh, or a loud voice in general. Men who wear seersucker pants with white (not sneakers) shoes. Ugh. Men who spend more than an occasional day at the golf course or who can't ever miss a baseball/football/hockey game.

You're really missin out;)

My BF has already busted several "deal breakers" I once may have had.

 

For example, I always disliked the idea of the sport of boxing. I mean, a sport based around knocking someone out? Ugh. I would have definitely had "No boxers" on my silliest deal-breakers list.

 

But hey... my BF used to really be into boxing. And still does boxing training occasionally. He's not the "type" I would have imagined myself with. A boxer? OMG. He's also hunted and fished a lot in the past too. :eek:

 

But honestly, chemistry just blew all of those "deal-breakers" away. What can I say? I'm happy to with him. Go figure.

-Has some sort of catch phrase. I once dated a guy that said, "and that's the truth!" behind pretty much everything he said. My girlfriends and I would joke about it for days on end until I accidentally started saying it too. Horrible, horrible, annoying stuff.

 

-Cannot after a significant amount of time remember my birthday. This for some reason irks me to no end.

 

-Does not like animals. I love animals and couldn't imagine not having them around.

 

-Has some weird obsession that he talks about constantly.

Posted

A woman that doesn't eat sushi.:eek:

Isn't that the truth ? :laugh:

Well maybe those posters consider such issues "silly" in the sense that they'd still consider dating a person in spite of them. More than one way to skin a cat. :cool:

Posted

Women who love bull****, horrible, headache inducing pop-music and TV shows.

 

"OMG LIKE KE$HA IS ON SHE'S MY FAVE TOTES" makes me so angry I go Bruce Banner. Not even kidding.

 

Or "I don't read books, that's stupid". GARRRRR

Posted

I am not sure if it is silly but it is a deal breaker.

 

A guy who smokes in front of kids.

 

Now, I have no problem with smokers. I have dated tons of them , however I find it extra rude to smoke in front of kids.

Posted

- Is a vegan. I like my steakhouses.

- Snores loudly.

- Speaks English with a strong Asian accent

 

Eh, those are probably my worst.

Posted
Isn't that the truth ? :laugh:

 

You're terrible. :eek:;)

Posted
For me it's if they are overly religious and try to force it down my throat.

 

Ditto.

 

It would never enter their heads to think a person is ALREADY good. :cool:

Posted

Thankfully no longer on the dating scene.. but at the time the silliest deal breakers comprise of -

 

. Men who wear white trousers.

. Men with hairy chests and facial hair.

 

I think it is from visiting Greece.

 

Also, overly political men, men who keep reptiles and those who I could imagine clearly should have been given another name. H'mm.. I have a strange thing going on with names. If a person doesn't look like their name I tend not to get on with them.

 

Take care,

Eve x
