    This may not be the right place to say this but for me it is exceedingly obese girls that make excuses and then sit around doing nothing and eating poorly rather than trying to get healthy. It is fine if you are obese as long as you are trying. I want to live for a long time and would prefer the girl have the same view.

    ^This! I'm perfectly able to support myself and he should be too. Also not into smokers.

    I agree with all of the above.

    I think height is more of an issue for the taller women. :-P

    I PREFER a man taller than me too; however, more importantly I will have to go with:

    He must be Christian
    He must not live at home with mom/dad/brother/sister/etc
    He must have a job
    He must be divorced for at least a year before getting even one date with me
    He must be family and goal oriented

    The list goes on! Is this really too much to ask?

    OH Lord! I just looked back at the original question...you said just one...oops, rant over!

    Can't date a Yankee fan. That is a deal killer.

    Someone shorter than me. I'm 5'8, so that rules out a lot of guys.

    I won't date someone shorter. I am 5'9 and somehow keep dating men who are 5'9 also.

    Bad teeth are also a deal breaker for me.

    Another tall one here... I did date a guy that was about 2 inches shorter than me a while back and I hated not wearing heels! He didn't have a problem with my height but I don't want to feel bigger than my guy.

    I prefer 6'0 and over.

    Also a guy with no ambition, no job, a mama's boy, emotionally immature (i.e. tells me he loves me by 2nd date), any kind of active addict, and a couch potatoe would all be deal breakers.

    Deadbeat guys who can't take care of their own lives and will admit, have a tough time with bad teeth.

    Also would prefer someone taller than me, but I'm only 5'4"! So I don't rule out as many guys... :)
