Mine is smoking (or really any generally unhealthy addictive habit).

Of course, in reality we all tend to be more flexible when we find someone really cool/attractive, but this is my theoretical dealbreaker when it comes to the opposite sex. If a girl's a smoker, I most likely won't even bother. I wouldn't forgo the potential for a hookup, but she'd be rendered devoid of dating potential for me.

Another one would be if she's cheated before, but that's not something that I would be able to tell upon first meeting someone. Besides, once I found out I'd have to give her ONE WEEK.

What's your dealbreaker?

Smelly vag.

What the hell does that mean?

and I don't really have a deal breaker. I guess I wouldn't date a fat girl...

Damnit, that might be an even better choice than smoking. I guess I could lump that into the unhealthy habit category though.

Its a joke from another thread. I forgot the OP's screen name, but he basically said if he found out one of his friends was cheating, he would give them a short time period to come clean or rat him out. So later on people were mocking him for getting in other people's business by saying ONE WEEK.

I know it sounds shallow, but I'm the same way.

I try to keep up a certain standard for myself. I expect any women I date to do the same.

- Talking in public about her sex life.
- Drinking too much alcohol

Being fat.

If she's shorter than me and happens to weigh twice as much, that is a deal breaker for me.

Smoking is a dealbreaker for me as well. I despise it general and it does not make any difference in a dating situation.

CrankyJay · Feb 21, 2011

I don't think not wanting to date a fat girl is shallow. I have plenty of friends who have active lifestyles (hiking, biking, sports etc) and would like their significant others to be able to keep up.

It's an admirable quality to want to take care of yourself physically, mentially, and hygienically.

Agreed. Isn't it pretty much universal that we are less attracted to fat people? Besides, it's not just a surface-level issue. Being fat is indicative of one's habits and even personality to some extent.

Balboa · Feb 21, 2011

Smoking and the majority of piercings.

abstract alien · Feb 21, 2011

Negativity and insensitivity.

Outside of things like smoking and such....she absolutely, positively must not have those two or its off.

This too. Just because we wouldn't date someone doesn't mean we wouldn't be friends with them.

I'm not saying that being overweight necessarily negatively influences one's personality, but being fat unquestionably plays a part in shaping who you are and how you're perceived by others. In some cases it can shape you for the better, and in other ways it can impact you negatively.

My point was that being fat or obese has a huge impact on someone's everyday life, so how could that not affect their personality?

Sometimes it can also be indicative of a lack of willpower or addictive personality, but of course that's not the case 100% of the time.

Deleted member 22576 · Feb 21, 2011

Just not being comfortable or ok with who they are. And, you know, bad hygiene.

Shurs · Feb 21, 2011

I think what he's saying is that, while people can be overweight for different reasons, including genetics, in some cases people are overweight because they either lack self-control or they are eating to fill a hole in their lives.

You also have the people who constantly, publicly complain about their weight while doing absolutely nothing to get into better shape. It's tough to be around.

Smokers (Maybe if they worked on quitting once we were in a serious relationship and didn't smoke around me out of respect for my health issues I could date them, but if they refused it's a no-go)

Why all the hate for vegans?

I'm dating one right now, and it's cool. She's not at all preachy about it, and all the vegan food I've tried with her has been pretty damn good so far. But I can still eat meet in front of her if I so desire.

And besides, vegans have a special taste 'down there'. It's like a glorious vagitarian buffet.

ToxicAdam · Feb 21, 2011

Crazy trumps everything listed so far.

I used to be one of those guys that would put up with crazy women if they were smart, good in bed, hot, good career, etc etc. But in the end, it's just not worth it and you can never "fix" it.

I guess the downside is you don't really realize how crazy someone is until you are about 2-3 months in.
