Truth: I'd dump you for my ex in a heartbeat if she would only return my calls or I will hold you accountable for all the crap my ex pulled on me. "I'm always doing things for others and neglecting my own needs." Translation: I will throw you in front of a bus to help a stranger cross the street. "I love you" after a few dates. Translation: I love beginnings and the idea of you. Once I get to know the real person I will bail. "I haven't seen any of my friends in awhile." Translation: I am unable to hold onto friends, or all of my friends are enablers for my past/current addictions. "I can kind of be a dick sometimes." Translation: I'm a dick. What are some you've noticed, doesn't have to be gender specific? Let's pool our knowledge! 2

iKING Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 "All men/women have treated me terribly in relationships" There has to be a reason for it, or It's just a cop-out. 3

Author tuxedo cat Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 "I don't do Valentine's Day." Translation: I don't like this holiday because it always reveals to whomever I'm seeing at the time how half-arsed I am as a boyfriend. 8
Star Gazer Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 I got fake breast to help my self esteem . No you did cuz your a whore you forgot cuz your stupid . Can't say any man I've ever dated has interpreted my amazing breasts as the result of being a whore or stupid, as I am neither. 5
tbf Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 "All men/women have treated me terribly in relationships" There has to be a reason for it, or It's just a cop-out.How about... I'm a lousy judge of character, don't have strong boundaries or enjoy playing victim/martyr. 7

soccerrprp Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Not for me. Your translation doesn't apply. :shrug: Well, none of these apply across the board. Fun though, huh?
Woggle Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 I am strong and I want somebody strong enough to handle me-I am an obnoxious person who picks fights for no reason and I am damn near impossible to get along with. I refuse to settle-What I am looking for only exists in movies. There are no good men/women-I constantly pick the wrong people and I blame the opposite sex instead of looking at myself. 6
realisticbound Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 "I'm a nice guy and people tend to take advantage of that" Someone treated me like a doormat but when it comes to you, I may very well treat you badly and not think twice about it. 1
Star Gazer Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 'I hate drama and avoid having it in my life.' Translation: 'Hold on to your ass, cuz I'm about to hit you with some 'Excorsist' level psycho-freak out.' For me, the translation has been: "Make sure you don't assert your boundaries or make yourself seem more trouble than I deem you're worth, which is very little. It's my way at my convenience." 2

Totally agree.

What are some you've noticed, doesn't have to be gender specific? Let's pool our knowledge! It's just fun. Let's not take it too seriously/personally. Okay, I'm only pulling this from here... I mean this site I go to. Not here. Everyone here is perfect in every way. "I want a guy/girl who is very physically active" translation: I want someone with a hot body. How someone did or did not get that appearance is largely irrelevent. 2
iKING Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 How about... I'm a lousy judge of character, don't have strong boundaries or enjoy playing victim/martyr. That's a good one, I mean It's one thing to be nice to people and help them, but there are limits. That's how people turn into doormats. Or, "Well, I dated ____ who did XYZ, so you're probably going to do XYZ". 2

runningfar Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 "If you can't handle me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best." This should be in a whole list that translates to, I am insane with very few redeeming qualities to compensate 2

I admit being guilty of using such a line, but I am an active runner, vegetarian and into a healthy lifestyle, so it fits my "lifestyle" and physical expectations.
