    anti-social

    Being inherently anti-social is tough. It can be a constant battle to deal with. Introversion is a lonely road. Getting out and mixing with others is uncomfortable making going it alone a simple choice. I'm not whining, just sayingl

    Did anyone ask? It's just something that turns that person off....

    When someone just sits around upset about the current state of their life but yet does nothing to change it. Drives me insane.

    The constant need to one-up anyone else... and OMG it's my husband's biggest flaw. :( But he knows it, and when I call him out on it, we all joke about it. It's a good thing that my favorite quality about him is that he's easy to forgive and doesn't take things personally.

    Abusers women and men. I also don't like people who always take and never give back in any and every aspect of their life. Selfishness and rude people.

    Since you asked me what the biggest turn-off is to me...MY biggest turn-off is a tie between:
    -being racist/homophobig/prejudiced/anti-equality
    -accepting things that people say without doing your own research and finding out whether or not these things are true
    -thinking that letting people starve and be homeless is a better option than expecting good business ethics or our government to provide temporary unemployment to people who lose their jobs is tough economic times
    -calling children and the elderly (among others) "moochers" and "takers"
    -preventing people from exercising their right to vote by using misleading information or voter suppression tactics in the name of preventing "election fraut" or "voter fraud" (which make up - LITERALLY - a whopping .000003% and .000000001%, respectively, of all votes in the US)
    -Claiming that there's such a thing as "legitimate rape" which the female body can magically "shut down" - and that, if you do get pregnant, you secretly wanted it and it was an act of God
    -claiming to want small government and then trying to pass laws that impose one's religious beliefs on others
    -And similar things that involve hate, (often willful) ignorance of facts, bad logic/being a hypocrite, or inequality.

    Man, picking just one is HARD. I'm going to have to go with self righteousness and cockiness. Last time I checked none of us are perfect.

    Being Irresponsible / breaking promises repeatedly
    Refusing to engage in conversation with reason (the "because-I-say-so-approach", is a sign of arrogance if you ask me )
    entitlement snob behavior/ demanding things you haven worked or earned

    When you are unable to have a serious conversation, always joking around... I guess that would be a person that is not confident and low self esteem...
    I like to laugh and joke around, but there's limits... I have co-workers like that...

    I agree with you. And it's not like I can't be sympathetic to their struggles, but dealing with them can be a chore at times.

    I took the anti-social comment as being people who might actually suffer from anti-social personality disorder. As in, those who have a complete lack of disrespect for the rights of others and frequently engage in immoral (e.g., theft, rape, etc.) and anti-social behaviors... So not people who are shy, but rather people who are sociopaths. Maybe I'm the only one who read it that way :0/

    Moodiness. Can't stand moody people. Also, complainers. The two seem to go hand-in-hand to me, though.
