OMG...this is an awesome thread!

I cannot stand someone who has no style...who has no ambition, lacks in the "cleanliness" area...and a whiner. I also cannot stand over-emotional boys....ick.

Oh here's another..
Has not dealt with past relational issues-the ex, the parents, whatever. Has not taken the time to do any kind of self assessment and holds himself completely blameless for any and every relationship challenge he's ever faced...

1: abusive, smoker/drinker (an occasional drink socially is okay, but anything more than that is a deal breaker)
2: kids (sorry, but I just feel that as long as the children's mother is in the picture--and more than likely she will be, there is always the possibility that he may wanna try to work things out with her)
3: uneducated/low ambition (the last thing i need is a man who has very little ambition, and therefore would pick fights with me because of his own insecurities)
4: negativity (i stay away from negativity because they drag my mood down...I am generally a happy, optimistic person. cannot imagine spending the rest of my life with someone who is constantly negative.)

Did I say clingers? Because I HAAAATE a clinger! Yes, I love spending lots of time with my guy, but if it's someone who can't function if they're not around me and have to be on top of me the whole time we're together... no. I'm not a fan of suffocation.

ohhh man studs...(or woman, I should say) you hit it right on the nose with that one. A cling-on is the worst thing EVER

[GentlemanGhost]

-Poor literacy
-Does not want to/has not gone to post secondary education
-Has an arts degree, unless it is a PhD in psychology...because I will need help paying the bills and as many people in school know many arts degrees land you a job at the local burger joint or retail outlet making $10/hr.
-Poor hygiene
-Very religious
-Thinks that I am going to be some porn-star wannabe in the bedroom
-Does not like pets
-Wants a big family
-Being immature

Meh reasonable..................i wouldnt want some free loading girl either.

Ha seriously. In one of my past relationships, it got to the point where as soon as I was within 5 feet of him, my breathing got more difficult. NOT fun!

Smokers/Alkies - Not dealing with another one of those again.
Socially conservative - I think I can handle someone who is fiscally conservative, but otherwise.. c'mon, it's 2009. I can't be with someone who doesn't believe in reproductive or gay rights.
Uneducated/uncultured - His idea of "good reading" should extend beyond the sports section.
Baggage - His past shouldn't affect our future.
Has/wants children
Lacks passion - In the bedroom, in life, for something..
Shorter than me - Taller than 5'8" please!
Sexually shallow - I'm pretty darn sexually liberal, but I'm not a plastic pornstar. If he expects sexual perfection/adventure on my part and then turns out to be a two pump chump, he can go scratch.
Bad hygiene - Seriously, unless you're 3 years old, this shouldn't be an issue.
