I could never again date a man who doesn't know how to give at least an occasional compliment. It makes me feel like there's something really important missing.

And I love mayo.

And Drummer, I'm curious. I really don't care for sports at all, but I loved Field of Dreams and Rudy and Remember the Titans. Would you have stayed with that gf if she had liked the movie but not the sport?

I would not date a woman that couldn't carry a tune, couldn't dance, or had no rhythm. And if she liked rap music, hip hop music or wanted to watch every ball game that came along it would be a deal breaker for me. I wouldn't date anyone that smoked or drank too much alcohol, or was into drugs. I wouldn't date a woman that had children living in the home or leaned too far left or right in politics, had too many tattoo's or piercings, and didn't know how to dress. Yeah, I know, I'm too damn picky.

I personally don't like dating women who like mayonnaise. I dislike everything about it. The look, the smell, the taste, everything. To many, this would seem rather petty, but it's something I can't ignore. Just thinking about being with (or even worse, kissing) someone who loves mayonnaise is enough to make my stomach turn.

Ok, your turn.
Submissive men annoy the hell out of me.

If I ever became single again (heaven forbid)

I could and would never date a man with long hair and/or a man who was fussy with his food.

There is something extremely unmanly about a man who is a finicky eater.

I agree with this, though I would never have thought about it beforehand. Poor table manners are up there as well. Nothing sexy about seeing a half-masticated cow in my date's mouth.

Character flaw: As soon as I detect an irresponsible leech, he's history.

Personality flaw: Liars and argumentative know-it-alls.
