    Happens on here pretty regularly.....as an "urban" person, I can tell you there is nothing less urban than the urban dictionary. It's just a pop culture reference list that makes me nuts.

    If they are too into PDA. I don't mind hand holding, light touches and brief kisses, but do NOT devour my face in a public place. It is tacky and makes other people very uncomfortable

    Or if they walk next to you with their hand in the butt pocket of your jeans. Eww.

    What is my hands are cold? Come on!

    If she refuses to watch something because it is in a foreign language with subtitles.

    If nothing worth watching at the time is subtitled then the test is if she cannot adequately explain how the Scientific Method works.

    * Disclosure: I'm happily married to a beautiful, intelligent woman who is neither ignorant nor dismissive of other cultures.

    I broke up with a guy because he tied his laces into big bows! Why would someone do that? Bows are for girls :#:#

    If her walking pace is significantly slower than mine.

    I suppose if it were significantly faster that would also be a reason; but that has never happened.

    I have pretty short legs and it has caused me to walk faster to keep up with other people. Apparently I sped up too much because now everyone is constantly yelling at me to slow down.

    And you shouldn't slow down when running from stalkers.

    No kidding.... I need you as a bodyguard I think

    I'd probably get annoyed with how slow you walk. :p

    (I shouldn't have to say this, but I will for clarification: It can not be, in any way, about another MFP member)

    It can be a real reason that happened to you.
    It can be a reason you imagine would stop you from continuing to date a person.

    A petty reason, for example, would be:

    I broke up with a girl/guy because the way she/he ate salad made me uncomfortable. She/He was pretty much attacking it, chewing with a lot of fervor, and making eye contact while she/he ate it.

    or

    If someone told me I was cutting green peppers the wrong way... Especially if I was doing it a way that Gordon Ramsay does it, but with fewer steps.

    Smoking, bad teeth

    If she doesn't use proper grammar and spelling.

    I agree with this... its annoying when a guy expresses himself like a jacka$$

    Also, if I'm breaking up with him for a "petty" reason, then we were never really "together."

    Real men in real relationships with me get respect. The others are just boytoys.

    She had a strange flossing technique. She flossed both sides of her mouth simultaneously.

    I do this sometimes.

    If they’re rude to service people who are just trying to do their job. If they spend more time looking at their phone than me. If they don’t like animals. If they try to sabotage my fitness goals because they’re not interested in fitness.

    These are all incredibly valid reasons imo.
