Things that made your ex unattractive

[FuckingFabulous]

I'm not talking about the "s/he was a cheat/abuser/criminal/gaslighter" type stuff, because that is entirely understandable and totally deserves its own thread for all survivors of that fuckery. I'm talking about the small stuff that made you look at them like, "You're grim."

-My ex didn't brush his teeth every day. At one point, I put paste on his brush and it was there and dried on 9 days later. Ew, do not even attempt to kiss me.

-He also pronounced the emergency medical response vehicle as "Ambliance." Cringe, cold chills, skin prickling.

• if he'd been outside doing ANYTHING, even talking to a neighbour, when he came back in he would look at me with an expression of devastated, dead on his feet exhaustion and just say, "Coffee" in a really croaky voice.

First time gave me an STI. Swore up and down it wasn't him, it was me (! I tested regularly). Soon found out that his ex (friend of a friend) had given it to him months before we met because she 'cba' sorting it out (she'd shared texts with another friend) and his personal hygiene was beyond the pale so not surprised he harboured it for so long. Would not brush teeth, even when given his own tooth brush. Stayed over for days at a time, would not shower, also provided with his own towel. After forcing him to get treatment I didn't sleep with him again. I had to wash my sofa cushion covers because his vile smell was ingrained after him sprawling all over them. Dirty, dirty bastard. Makes my skin crawl thinking about him.

He grew a huge beard knowing I hated facial hair on men. He once had a cold, blew his nose, and got snot all down his moustache. Then went in for a kiss. I nearly puked.

He would come in from a long run and, instead of going straight up to shower, would come in the living room and sit down on the couch "for a rest". He would be literally dripping in sweat and stinking.

He was as stingy AF and I couldn’t bear the thought of being with a stingy man

@Galassia

The ex that looked liked Gru refused to pronounce Twitter properly despite being told by numerous people and would always say ‘Tweeter’!

The only jeans he would wear were boot leg jeans. I have no idea where he man add ged to buy such hideous looking things and suspect that a store employee inadvertently hung a few women’s pairs on a rack in the men’s section.

In the summer he wore these hideous mule things that he paired with three quarter length microfibre shorts that had lots of elastic fastenings and toggles on them.

Ha ha

EX 1 : We would have sex most days but one week I was really poorly and under the weather. He still asked and when I said no he began wanking next to me and came in a tissue.

EX2: This sounds like im being awful writing it down but he would ask to be the little spoon, sit next to me and rest his head on my shoulder while out in public and liked to brush my hair.

EX3: too desperate and would constantly fondle and ask if I wanted sex. Even if I said no (because say, for instance, I was working or making lunch) he would ask multiple times and rub up against me.

Oddly the second 2 were very well paid, educated, high up the career ladder men. Both needy as fuck.

@PandemicAtTheDisco

This was cathartic until I accidently deleted my post.

My ex was 'in a band'. He was extra confident with little talent. He would monopolise the karaoke as he loved the attention. Countless times people complained to me about him - I was so ashamed to admit he was my partner.

He was also good looking but very vain. Constantly posing for selfies or admiring himself in the mirror, pulling faces or practising his stances. If he'd have put the same amount into practised his singing then he'd have been great.

He was so arrogantly confident and acted as if he knew everything. He doesn't realise he is talking crap and many people pick up on it and are embarrassed on his behalf.

Wondering if I've met this one....

@Mumvschildren OMG that's just horrible to read. Help! I'm so glad you've found someone nicer!!

• as soon as we had finished having sex and he pulled out, he declared loudly "I hAtE these things!", and whipped the condom off at such a speed 🤮

Different guy- we went away on a trip for a few days at a hotel that offered activities, such as quad biking. Turns out he didn't bring extra clothes for doing activities like this...and also just a change of clothes in general. Think underwear etc. When we arrived back at the hotel room he took his socks off (he was soaked through after quad biking) and hung them on the radiator. He put them on the next morning. When the weekend was over he said he did it on purpose to see how I would react.....bizarre!

Same guy - after I broke up with him he drove over an hour to mines and left my "things" outside my door. I didn't live with him and always took anything which was mines home with me. He had left a black bag of random things which belonged to his ex (make up, deodorant, a lamp????? Etc)

Fuck me, men are losers

Sniffing. My ex sniffed and had a huge nose that he called his 'snoz'. He sniffed that hard it felt like he was sucking the world up.

He also used to think he was a rock star. He really wasn't.

A lot of these posts are really making me want to start a women-only commune.

I'm happily married but the animals out there! Just yuck!!

I'm dying laughing.
My horrid ex didn't do any of these things, he just did the classic, "walk out and leave 6 week old baby"
20 years on I think I got lucky!

@vampirethriller

Refused to wash his knob because my mouth would do that. When I told him I wasn't going anywhere near an unwashed cheesy penis, he put toothpaste on it to hide the smell. Didn't last long after that.

Ahahahahahahahah wtf!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahahahah

I know there's a few "all men are awful" comments here, but why did any of you give these guys a second date, let alone some kind of relationship? They sound shit from the start

Twice on holiday, he got us hopelessly lost. I trusted him as he always said he had a good sense of direction and rattled off motorway routes.
Felt really embarrassed for him as he was wandering around with me fuming like some little old bewildered man holding his maps. Twat.

He didn't shower or brush his teeth.
I ran far far away.

Expected oral sex every single time and never reciprocated…selfish!!!

His laugh.

Yy to the farthing, my ex is the type that even when he attempts to do them quietly he takes great delight in knowing that they smell like death and loves getting a reaction from people when they feel sick 🤢

Used to pronounce the 'h' in honest, honour, hour etc.

Wiped his mouth on tea towels after eating food then wiped the kitchen worktops with them afterwards.

Constantly left unflushed turd in the loo and pubes all over the loo seat.

Couldn't make food without using every bit of kitchenware there was or getting crumbs and food slop absolutely everywhere.

Never cleaned the loo. When he lived at his old house he installed a new bathroom and new loo ended up brown and stained within no time.

Drank too much.

Out with a group of mates to see a band in a shitty part of town. It was late and one of the women was going to get a bus. I said we'll wait with you (she was on her own) and he started bitching and moaning. Lost respect for him after that.

Mine had handwriting like an eight year old girls. Instead of putting dots on his i's he drew little circles

He also had the same taste in interior design as an 80 year old Nana might have. Like, artificial flowers in a Lladro vase sort of thing. Not attractive.

I know this is going to sound really anti-feminist. And I am as feminist as they come. I try and teach my son some basic hygiene and etiquette with women. I don’t want to blame the women at all but how do these men get to be adults with this filth?

After running, putting his finger on one nostril and blowing snot out of the other in the street.

Trimming his pubes and leaving them on the toilet seat/in the toilet.

Pissing the bed/sofa when drunk and trying to hide it without cleaning it so the bed would stink.

Letting my children use my toothbrush without my knowledge. Cant I f*cking have anything to myself?

So much more but this is embarrassing enough. Ha

1 XBF used to fart in a cupped hand, put other hand to lid it. Then unleashed in my face.
Another guy I was with was into scat (never told me but found his YouTube history had videos of women soiling their knickers on purpose).
DH said one girl he went out with, vagina smelled like cabbages. Shows women can be gross too 🤢🤮
