    ...smokes.
    ...lies.
    ...is personality-free.
    ...is boring.
    ...refuses to let go of the past.
    ...can't or won't communicate, preferring to stay closed-up.
    ...is paranoid.
    ...is jealous.
    ...can't handle the fact that I've got a lotta female friends.
    ...is a dog-hater.

    Oh, this list could go on and on. Maybe this explains why I'm single at 44. :)

    Excellent list! Insert male friends for female friends though! Lol.

    Honestly...

    1. doesn't accept me for the person that I am
    2. doesn't accept my kids, my family, or my pets (because I will be giving up none of the above)
    3. doesn't realize that we are living two separate lives together (I have my own projects.)


    Now that I have formed this list, I realize that all we are really posting is the reasons why we broke up with our exes. Hmmm... :ohwell:

    can't take a JOKE! I make fun of everything/everyone & expect to get made fun of. I love people making fun of things I say & do so he's gotta reciprocate my humor =)


    being at least 6-foot tall is also a necessity

    LOL

    My standards are a little higher than that. I could never date someone who...
    ...smokes
    ...is negative more than occasionally
    ...spends an excessive amount of time or money on big boy toys
    ...is bipolar (sorry if that's not PC these days, but 15 years was enough of that!)
    ...does not love me body, mind, and soul
    ...who likes to sleep every chance they get
    ...is arrogant
    ...can't balance life (work/play/family)
    ...isn't considerably family oriented
    ...is either extremely slobby or obsessively clean
    ...who doesn't like sarcastic humour and/or can't laugh at themselves

    I've just realized I could go on all day! Given the short, stout thing that I am, maybe that will mean I'll be single a LOOOONG time, but I won't settle. I owe it to me and my kids to have a healthy relationship I enjoy and can be happy in more often than not. (Realizing no relationship is perfect or without bad days, just super sensitive about not getting into another one where it's a daily struggle)

    I was so thinking the same thing about our exes!! Only I need to add:

    - lets Mama make his every decision in life
    - can't hold an interesting conversation
    - lies/cheats (BIG ONE)
    - has a secret freak life that I just can't handle
