Certain male behaviors are capable of instantly turning a woman off to the possibility of a relationship or intimacy. No matter how good looking, charming, witty or sexy you are. My are- Not having enough confidence- being a liar and lacking spontaneity.
I'm interested to hear yours....

    i am completely turned off when someone is arrogant and overly confident. Its a good quality to believe in yourself and have some confidence, but to be so arrogant that you come across better than everyone else is very unattractive to me. I dont need someone to tell me or prove to me that they are great........i want to learn it all on my own :) There is something to be said about being a lil humble :)

    ^^^^ totally agree! The confident man doesn't show it or boast about his accomplishments. He demonstrates it in a more subtle way.
    it's also a turn off for me to have a weak character

    - Rude to "help" or service personnel (maids, waiters, etc.)
    - Not reciprocal in interest in me, my life, activities, etc.
    - No job
    - Rigid in beliefs (religious, political, etc.) Gonna need you to respect the other sides of your own argument otherwise I'll think you don't know WTF you're talking about.
    - A lack of ambition
    - Felonious criminal record or recent misdemeanor.
    - Poor character
    - Dishonesty
    - Financially dirt-poor. (I've been struggling my whole life, and I've helped my partners up as far as I could along the way. I'm turned off by the idea of that financial burden.)

    And here I thought it was ok to be rigid in my beliefs yet respectful and willing to listen to the other side of the argument. Doesn't it just look wishy-washy otherwise?
