    - No liberals
    - No straightedge, anti-drinking/anti-smoking/anti-pot types.

    That's about it... :laugh:

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who avoids Liberals :noway:

    For me it depends on the liberal... If one is a classical liberal, then come on down.... but if they are a more progressive, statist liberal.. not a chance in Hades. Same goes for the conservatives too.

    Here are a few:

    -Does drugs
    -Is super negative 24/7
    -Does not know how to communicate (this one is definitely a deal breaker since this was one of the main causes of my first and only breakup)
    -Lustful 24/7 of the day, hour, minute, second
    -Not gentleman like
    -Racist!! <--- I dont want to deal with that lol
    -Disrespectful to others for no reason (i.e. gets angry easily off of something so minor)
    -Not independent

    Today is the 2nd week anniversary of the day we met - I dissed him for at least 2 days and then started taking him seriously and had to apologize and thank him for being pushy , because I thought he was a prime example of my number 1- NONONO - and to my surprise he met all requirements.....
    1 - no religious nutcases (Have no problem with my guy's spirituality and acceptance of a creator as he defines it - his private religious beliefs turned out to be a surprising comfort to me as an agnostic and my mother, an evangelical, will love him as long as she doesn't try to ask him to church...)
    2- absolutely NO political conservatism of any kind and can NOT be politically apathetic
    3 - Can't be sour - must be one of the funniest people I've ever met
    4 - must think that I'm one of the funniest people he's ever met
    5 - must have a high IQ, but preferably not higher than mine
    6 - must have a sex drive - preferably that of a 20 yr old
    7 - has to have the same attitude about sex and be comfortably open with talking about it - with no hangups, fear or shyness
    8 - AND I didn't know until I met him that I needed someone who is very easy-going, with no drama and at the same time is not a push over if we should disagree about anything.

    Any dad that was as amazing as you mentioned, would see this ten miles away. If the girl I'm with can't accept my kids as if they were her own...sorry, no dice. They are more important to me than I am, and if she can't put them before herself/ourselves...then I can't put her before me, and...we don't belong together. My kids aren't exceptions.

    Very true. The first hint that whomever I'd date was against my kids, they would be gone. This is mainly because I value them being in my life more than I value anyone's company. And not to mention that they wouldn't deserve a woman who is in my life to be in theirs if she was against them.


    The boyfriend's kids' mom has a huge problem with this in my case.

    My ex flipped when she found out I was dating my last girlfriend. And I mean...flipped to the level of calling at 2am when she knew I was with the girl to scream about it, then when I hung up...texting for 2hrs straight after. This happened on two separate occasions lol.

    This from the girl that cheated on me with one of her FB friends, then moved 800 miles away (TRYING to take the kids with her...I put a stop to that immediately) to be with the guy, left the kids anyhow when she couldn't take them, got engaged...met another guy within 2wks of leaving me, cheated on the initial guy...and is now engaged to the third guy (she keeps saying they're married...but they aren't lol).

    SMH.

    Ooooh. Add this to my list. I like having (non-classical) liberal friends, actually. Makes for lively conversation. Dating is a different story. I like the occasional oddball libertarian though...:laugh:

    Sorry bout that!

    I don't have any of my own (when bf's daughters are with me I take care of them as if I gave birth to them) if I was a mother I would want some one that takes good care of my kids to be around them. I would be the 1st in line to meet this person - since she would be near my children. This lady has seen me multiple times and refuses to meet me. She dislikes me and looks for every opportunity to tell my bf about it. All it does is bring us closer. He told me she was psycho when we 1st got together, I'm beginning to believe it.

    these are more like turn-offs:

    - unnecessary use of old-timey text abbreviations (i.e "what r u up 2?"). THIS IS NOT 2007.
    - weak handshake
    - no gumption
    - dumb



    That said, if you have a mop of dark, curly hair, you can do all of those things and I'd be pretty cool with you.

    - No men
    - Bad breath
    - Not excessive baggage
    - Preferably non-smoker

    My g/f fits 3 of the 4 above but we've been together 4 years and it all seems to be going well

    I don't think there's any such thing as a lesbian with no baggage!

    I don't have any real deal breakers, but for some reason I am extremely unattracted to men with small hands and guys who are into fashion.

    If he occasionally wears a vest. I'm sorry. I'm gonna pass. lol
