    His hands were too soft.

    I am recently divorced and dating. I have lots of petty reasons not to date guys, but I ALWAYS check out the hands and decide if I want him to touch me based on how they look. Guys have to have man hands.

    Right?!? It was creepy. My hands are manlier than his. :D

    Valid reason indeed. But my question for you both is this: Would you TELL the guy that's why you didn't want to see him anymore? "Sorry dude. Your hands are not manly enough."

    I didn't tell him that was why. Would you want to know if it was you?

    Is it petty to stop dating someone because you want to be in control of the "stopping", like I'm gonna dump you before you dump me

    I would. I always want to know why. Not knowing drives me nuts.

    I gave him a reason, it just wasn't the real one. I think the hands reason makes me sound a little crazy. :'(

    Making hot chocolate in a pot, and she was moving it from the pot to her mug with a small spoon. One spoonful at a time.

    Why give the reason if it’s 1. Something he can’t change (size of hands). 2. Someone will love you just because your hands are small :-).

    He couldn’t spell my name after three months dating :-(. I still think he’s cute though.

    I once dated a girl, first generation Italian, gorgeous, but she didn’t like mushrooms, white wine or Parmesan. I couldn’t live with that......
