Ok I was trying to be polite but wth...

I don't mean Socks In Bed are bad if your feet are cold BUT

Socks in bed when you're doing the wild thing (and shouldn't even be worried about your feet) is the mark of a douche.

It is a sign that this person is not all there in the head, just like driving a car with a hat on. Only douches do it so be careful when they're around.

Seriously think about it...a gorgeous guy/girl standing naked in front of you begging for a night of passion....and they've got their SOCKS ON???????

There is something about it that just completely turns me off, and I wouldnt care if it was Ryan Gosling. Socks on=no nooky.

Expects me to plan ALL the dates

Low sex drive
Hung up on their ex

Main deal-breakers

1) Men who say they wouldn't date nor wife-up a wild, party woman and act like cops but they are manwhores themselves. Hypocrites.... who needs them anyways??? Yet they expect the good, virtuous woman to be ok with their past and get over it even if she's doesn't like it nor shares that lifestyle. Sorry but you can't claim high morals if you're not at that level yourself. Next...

2) Smokers and heavy drinkers to they point they're doing on a daily basis. Someone who doesn't take care of their health is just as depressing as someone with an addiction. In a way, anything done in excess is an addiction. Next...

3) He has no goals in life and doesn't like studying nor reading. Years ago, my younger self would have said ''Who cares if he's not interested in a higher education, as long as he's kind it doesn't matter''. Yes, at some point it does matters and it makes a difference. I made that mistake of dating a man with an IQ of a 15 year-old before (my ex bf) and it gets boring later on esp with their conversations, behavior and education level. Next....

4) Overly religious and believes in waiting till marriage. What's the point of a relationship lacking complete intimacy??? That's an important aspect too.

5) Wants kids.... well that I'm not interested in.

6) Nasty personality and totally unfair towards others. Even if he was smart, that only would put him at ''jerk'' label. Yes, there are certain intellectuals that think they're on top of everyone. It's sad they are smart but apparently fail in the interpersonal relationships skills department.

7) Doesn't believe in marriage. Even if I don't want kids, I'm still interested in a childfree marriage.

8) Asks me out on a date but still expects me to pay half. Sorry but if you're not going to pay for your invitation then don't ask me out in the first place. There will definitely be no 2nd date. And don't be complaining about $1. Nothing worse than a cheapstake acting extremely lazy and ridiculous as if it was something so difficult. Who ever does the asking out is the one paying.

I beg your pardon! I happen to wear socks in bed (I'm female) because I have nerve damage in my leg which has caused neuropathy (look it up) in my foot. If I don't wear socks, the friction from the sheets on my foot is very painful... so I wear socks. It isn't what you would call a "lifestyle choice" and so far, no one's complained.

i hate men who want to eat off my plate. I hate hate when ordering if he says " oh, can i try a bite of that "Please order your own ! I don't do the sharing thing well.You eat yours and i will eat mine especially on a first date.Nothing is worse than you and your dirty looking mouth wanting to wrap your lips around my or your fork with my food.And don't show up smelling like sweat and cologne mixed.Take a bath.Two if you need to.

[diaperpins]

Redrover,Yes they do.Just not to you.It is unsexy as heck.I understand why you do it though.Have you tried rubbing some ora jel on your feet right before ? It will numb it for a while but then you have to deal with that smell as well.

Man, I couldn't be with woman like that at all. Sharing food is fun and romantic

[findly185]

1.) Momma's boys
2.) Men who want to get married or have children
3.) Inarticulate/Unintelligent
4.) Chronic bad breath
5.) Overly muscular
6.) Chewing with mouth open (no basic table manners)
7.) Temper Problem/Ego

I'm sure there are some more that are negotiable, but that's the main list.
