I wouldn’t date someone who was:
Stupid
A walking stereotype
Obese
Boring
Lazy
Emo/Whiny
Not kind to animals
Abusive to women or children
Or lacked a sense of humor
What exactly are you trying to say here?0 -
I see where you are coming from, as a short woman I'm not attracted to guys who are my size or smaller. You can't really help who you're attracted to....
Plus I've always been self conscious about my weight and low self esteem about being fat- I don't think I could emotionally handle my s/o being smaller than me.0 -
some of you guys are so damn shallow! i mean really dirty sneakers and nickelback?! come on!0

I wont date someone that is 2 out of the 3.
1.) Taller
2..) Smarter
3.) Makes more money
One is fine but my ego can't handle two.
that would be a trifecta of the worst kind.
Seriously are you that insecure that you couldn't date an independant woman that takes care of herself with a genetic disposition of being taller than you???
I have to say that she got off lucky :bigsmile:0 -
I wont date anybody that even slightly resembles my ex...thin, blonde and two horns sticking out of her head to go with her forked tongue.
Pretty sure I know this person or someone who bears the same beautiful personality.
She-Devil works in my office.0 -
TEETH!
Urgh, that is the FIRST thing I notice about men, I don't care how attractive they are if their teeth are not up to mark then it's a HELLS NO! (rotting/brown in clear need of a dental visit etc)
Has to be off the same intelligence level as me, but in a different field,but also have a sense of humour (I like to have a laugh, but I also love to have intellectual conversations) For example my speciality is nursing/healthcare I often have conversations with my friends partner who has a lot of other knowledge bases, I see it as both developing mines and his awareness of different subjects. Also it's good to have a little debate.
Can put up with my B*itching every once in a while, I don't do it regularly but at times it is just necessary.
Still goes to see his friends on a regular basis, as I will mines (not into clingy clingy men).
Has to be taller than me, doesn't have to be by much, but the height has to be there.
Mutual respect0 -
my number 1 reason i won't date someone is - if they aren't my wife.
Anyway, when I was dating years ago - i dated all types. Taller, bigger, smaller, shorter, small chested, large chested, smarter, um... not smarter. I didn't have any "rules" other than "do I find this person attractive." If the answer was yes, then I took a shot.
bingo! lol!!!
I didn't and still don't "date around". I think in general, women want a protector. so yeah, the man needs to be stronger, taller, bigger, make more money, stable in all his ways, and for me, he needs to honor God.
I'm getting married to the man I love!0 -
If they're a jerk, if they're a bum, if they hate cats, and if there's no sexual attraction.0

Me too on the wife thing....
But years ago, I was very, very picky about who I dated. I absolutely would not date anyone that would not date me.
Except for that one girl with the restraining order.0 -
My husband was a good 40+ pounds lighter than I was when we first met (in 2003) and started dating. However, he was very muscular... "ripped" if you will so I felt that protected feeling. Now, almost 9 years later, I actually weigh 5 pounds less than him (his weight has increased, mine has decreased). I didn't really care about body type, as long as he was smart, kind, funny, geeky, and sensitive enough. He's all of that and more. I honestly didn't care about our size difference. still don't (though we are within 5 pounds of one another).
He was also the complete opposite physically and mentally as the guy I dated before him, so that was a plus .0 -
I wouldnt (because I'm happily in a relationship..) date someone if :
He has ugly feet
He's shorter than me
He's a *kitten* !
He has a pot belly and careless about it0 -
Sense of humour. If he can't make me laugh it's a no go for me.0

that would be a trifecta of the worst kind.
1. I am 5'11'' (or just under) barefoot. And I'm a heels kind of girl.
2. I like to think that I am intelligent (think 1600 SAT- when it was out of 1600, 4.0 through college, and I can change the oil in my own car)
3. I don't make money but I HAVE money (family money).
I would like to think these things are GOOD things in the dating realm. but damned if you do, damned if you don't I guess. :-)
ETA: I wouldn't date someone who didn't have a sense of humor. I love dry wit on a man.0 -
If he's married, forget it!0

#1 Smoking - Ugh...completly agree with ashtray comment above.
#2 Careless about the way you look - Dated someone like this who just let themselves go and 3 years later I could hardly recognize her...the 4th year after many arguments of trying to show her why its better to keep in good shape and she wouldent budge...I hit the eject button.
#3 No sense of humor - If you cant handle a joke or two without being offended...wont work.0 -
Shorter than me...that includes when I am wearing high heels... it just doesnt seem right to me and makes me feel awkward.
this was the one rule that the ladies had that ever eliminated me from their selection.
I have never understood why it makes me feel that way, just does...its not that I deliberately set my attraction node to taller it just is...There is someone for everyone my sister, who is taller than me, prefers short men. Probably a good job and she is nearly 6'
i'm sorry if you took my comment as some sort of negative statement towards you. It wasn't. You like and want what you like and want, and that's cool. I wasn't trying to change your mind or anything.
All I was saying is that as a shorter guy, this was the predominant strike against me (or so I was told... maybe it was something else, and they just said they didn't date shorter guys because that was their easiest out). I didn't like being eliminated based on something I had no control over, but that doesn't mean I didn't understand the preference.0 -

The number one reason I won't date someone is that I'm married. My husband frowns upon that.0
