There are many things I look for but one thing that is important to me..somewhat of a deal break if she:
-only sticks to the cardio machines at the gym!
Haha it's the same for me for guys. And to be completely honest, if I see a guy (uninjured) get on an elliptical, I'm instantly turned off, I can't help it.
In the last two years both knees got hurt and I had three hernias repaired plus I had every bone broken in my foot many years ago that has left me unable to run but I do what I can to do cardio...... So since I am in this situation, but you can't tell that I am hurt, don't you think that is a bit narrow-minded?0 -

Sweetheart, don't get butt-hurt. It's an instinctual reaction. When many guys see an overweight woman, they instantly don't consider her as attractive, but what if they knew she had a thyroid condition or was on steroids for immuno-suppression, wouldn't that be a little narrow-minded? The world is judgemental.0 -

You folks who are saying "No job" are being pretty harsh. The person might have no job through no fault of their own - laid off, company went under, etc.
On the other hand, "no desire to get a job" is definitely a valid deal breaker.
I agree, I was laid off and jobs are so hard to come by but i guess for most on here they would say go to school, cause seems most say someone w/o education. I didn't go to college, can't afford it, if i could I'ld go get my CDL's College cost money and not all of us have rich parents.0 -

I'm not "butt-hurt" at all I just find your "instinctual reaction" narrow-minded.0 -
WOW, Oh I forgot one darn i guess I do have a pretty long list but yet still simple,
One I forgot no tats, I hate tats, unless there tiny and only one or two of them.
I can over look some things sometimes, and depends on the person, if your sweet,caring,pretty, and good at things I overlook lots

my deal breaker is ..my husband told me I'm not allowed to date anymore.
Huh..who woulda thunk it.0 -
I'm engaged, so this doesn't really apply to me, but when I was single, I didn't really have any complete deal breakers except for being violent or abusive. I felt that if I really liked someone, then I'd give it a chance.
Then I met a guy who I liked... until I found out that he disliked dogs. I could not make a life with or even spend a weekend with someone who dislikes dogs.0 -
Must like cats.0

an armed husband0

My deal breakers would be being full of hate towards another ethnicity or sexuality preference.
...And also men who aren't alright with me preferring to smoke weed over taking medications.
... And men who are horrible in the bedroom.0 -
I dated a lovely guy who wasn't allowed a driving licence because of epilepsy.smoking, drugs, excessive drinking, no job, no education, no drivers license, generally rude, gotta believe in/want marriage/want kids/love dogs
theres a lot. I have standards what can I say.
Just putting it out there that it isn't always a person's fault and it doesn't make them a loser.0 -

No way:
- Arrogant / smug / condescending / annoyingly argumentative for the sake of it / black and white thinker / lack of social skills --> basically no engineers
- Addictions (sober 10+ years is ok, but if it's even a possibility now I can't deal, sorry)
- As someone else said, untreated mental health issues or hard-core personality disorders. Mild/occasional anxiety or depression is ok, that just means you think about stuff
- Cruelty
- Stupidity
- Being dismissive/remote, or, too clingy (should be able to play/work both alone and with others)
- Regressive politics
- Religious (spiritual, eh, maybe; probably not)
- Not pulling weight at home
- Sense of entitlement
Essential:
- Emotionally secure
- Insightful
- Kind
- Witty (this is a twofer, implies a certain kind of intelligence)
- Must do exactly half of the domestic stuff. I mean EXACTLY half, not 'help out' now and then, or just the dishes0
