    I looked around but didn't see that a thread on this topic. I've noticed several "would you date someone like this" threads and began wondering what are your guys' deal breakers. What would lead you to end or not pursue a relationship with someone? What are your deal breakers?

    I only realized this one last night, surprisingly. But 100% this.

    I second the difference in political views, I would never date a guy with super conservative beliefs. Besides that, someone who's 100% sure he wants children some day. I don't want any.

    I'll see this and raise:
    Anti-social in the sense of being a racist, sexists or something similar.
    Smoking around me.
    Not being into hugging, physical affection.

    Also this^
    I think I would like children sometime in the future, however it's not an absolute deal breaker if my partner doesn't.

    Deal breaker for me would have to be a person who doesnt like to get out the house and go do something

    Flamboyance, unwillingness to even try to understand others' opinions, believing all forms of drug use is bad or that all drugs are dangerous, being annoying, caring too much about sex, being irrational, being unnatractive.

    By flamboyance, I take it you mean acting out just for attentions sake?
    Or generally, cinserely acting feminine/loud?

    Flamboyance falls under 'being annoying' for me. That's why I find it undesirable.

    I would never date a smoker, heavy drinker, druggie... But I'm willing to give most people a fair go in most other ways.

    This, too. It wouldn't work between me and someone who wants to have sex every day.

    Oblivion of current affairs.
    I think it's important to stay informed on at least some level of current affairs of the world, and I would like my partner to share this ideal. Of course, I don't know everything and I don't expect him to, either.

    Closed-mindedness.
    I try to keep an open mind regarding all kinds of things. Foods, music, places. Drugs, too. I wouldn't ever force my partner to try any of it, however I would hope he be as open to new experiences as I am.

    Lack of interest in physical activity.
    I'm not in excellent physical condition, but I am active. I choose walking and my bike over the bus and car whenever I can. My dream would be to cycle all over Europe with my partner, visiting Paris, Berlin, Rome and all of the other beautiful cities. He doesn't need to have that same dream but unless he is an extremely lovely and captivating person, being a couch potato is a deal breaker.

    Being a smoker, extremely flamboyant, attention seeker/self centered, whiny, offensive, extremely religious, HIV+ and I know it makes me look like a terrible person for it, cause sometimes it's not that person's fault that he has it, but that virus scares me too much, to ever allow myself to be carefree with someone that has it.

    I'll second 'extremely religious'.
     
  17. Animal hater. Narcissist. Smoker. Drug or alcohol addict.

    Agreed. Don't get me wrong; I want sex, but I want a relationship to be about much more than that.
     
  18. They have those in the gay community? :confused2:

    Extremely religious people are able to reconcile all sorts of contradictions, it's the reason they're capable of being extremely religious.
