    Bad teeth (like gross, yellow, dirty, disgusting clear you don't take care of them... if you can't take care of those, you can't take care of yourself).

    No education. Some people see this as snobby..... but it's such an important part of my life (I just applied for 2 PhD programs yesterday), It just bothers me when someone is 27, no education beyond high school, and probably working a crap job. I mean, yay, they have a job, but why didn't you even try? Ugh!

    Wow, having lack of education as the deal breaker is not what people think is snobby, your attitude about it is. Maybe not everyone wanted to be saddled down with student loan debt and decided to become working members of society from the get go.

    Yeah... I have no education, I'm going to be 24 in January. I left my program because I could no longer afford to complete it, now in debt and I can't go back until I've paid off my debt.

    I'm in a wonderful long-distance relationship but for me, right now, it's an inability to understand the concept of "asexuality".

    * certainly I would never date one. I will tolerated with friends and family so long as you are not the pushy type who won't shut the heck up. I have written off friends and family who do this. I don't force my view on you, don't force yours on me.

    Yea, that goes both ways, I have tons of Conservative/Republican friends and family that are pushy and won't shut up.
    The same can be said of Tories or the BNP.

    I won't date a non Christian. I'm sure that will piss a lot of people off but I just won't. My fiath is very important to me. Any woman I am with must love God, kids, be decent and respectful. My wife (may she rest in peace) set a very high standard.

    I have a few: no job, no car, lives with parents, has numerous kids by numerous women, has zero ambition and now smoking.

    My list used to be similar. Until I met my current boyfriend who is undoubtedly the love of my life. When I met him he was unemployed, his car was broken down and he lived with his sister. He had a daughter and smokes. I'm glad that when he approached me (via email...we met online) that I responded and let him know that I had some concerns. We talked through them and I understood what chain of events led him to where he was. That being said, it was very clear that he had ambition, wanted to work and wasn't content living with his sister.

    He is now gainfully employed, with a functioning car and we just moved in together. I adore his daughter and tolerate the smoking. I've never been happier.

    Sometimes we miss out when we don't look deeper. Not preaching, by any means, but I'm SO glad I didn't blow him off.

    I'm the opposite. I generally don't like to date religious people because of my non-belief.

    1a. Smoking 1b. Lack of extremely active libido. I'm just saying.

    Cubs fans, packer fans, no post high school education, no job, no car, does any illegal drugs, has ugly teeth. So I guess the first two aren't really deal breakers but kinda more funny :)
