    I wouldn't date a man if he smoked, drank to excess, had a drug problem, was unemployed, had kids, was divorced, didn't own a car, or didn't live on his own (whether that be an apartment or house).

    Luckily I don't have to worry about it because I have my perfect match.

    Someone who was conservative/Republican.

    That definitely can't work.

    You know, I do hate the smoking. But my fiance is a smoker (which I'm not happy about, but I love him, so ...) and you wouldn't know it unless you actually saw the cigarettes. He doesn't smell like he smokes at all, his breath is fine and I never taste it on him. Of course, he NEVER smokes inside. Neither of us wants to live in a stinky house.

    I think if we split up, though, I wouldn't date another smoker. At this point, it's about the future health concerns more than anything else. A good friend of his died from lung cancer a few years ago, but that wasn't enough incentive to get him to quit. :-/

    I felt similarly about my ex's smoking. He was a lot like your fiancé - I never smelled it on him, he took care of his teeth, he didn't smoke indoors or in the car, and when we were out in a restaurant or at the movies he had no problem at all with going many hours w/o a cigarette. We sometimes went out with another couple who were both smokers and they would be jonesing for a cigarette every 15-20 min and I thought, man...if my partner was a smoker to that level there's just NO WAY...

    I'm so happy my husband has never smoked and lives a very healthy life, though! :-)

    What really turns me off in a date is the sense they have some preconceived list of attributes I am being measured up against.

    ;P

    Being a prostitute thats hooked on crack. I don't think I could be cool with that, because she'd have to work all the time to support her habit so I'd never see her and she'd never be in the mood when I did get time with her.

    Dancing around in a bathrobe. Tucking. Keeping me in a basement cistern and yelling at me to put the lotion on my skin.

    Oh yes this too. I don't really like facial piercings, especially on men. a small nose stud looks cute on a girl

    If they've murdered someone. I'm not sure I could be with someone like that. Maybe if they were hot. I'd probably turn them in eventually during a fight or something.

    How would you know?

    I'm actually fine with smelly since I can't smell many things. I had my nose broken several times and it doesn't work very well anymore. :P

    I used to date a homophobic neo-nazi smoker... who wore skinny jeans. I don't think you can get much worse than that. His ringtone should have given it away really- it was one of Hitler's speeches and when I introduced him to my gay friend he said it was like meeting a unicorn as gay people "don't exist" in Romania (where he was from).

    Safe to say that relationship ended abruptly when I discovered what he was really like.
