Mine is for referring to the 69 position as 'summer of 69ing' and condoms ss 'rubber johnnies'.

It just made my skin crawl and there was no coming back from that!

He went to the bakers to get me a salad roll for lunch and it had fucking beetroot on it. I hate beetroot. Arse!

After our first night together he came out of my room wearing just his pants and sat cross legged on the sofa. They we weird tight brief things too. He wasn't insta dumped but it wasn't long.

He went to the loo eight times during a two hour date. I thought he was a wierdo, turns out it was a medical condition Blush

He told me that his ideal holiday is camping. Or if abroad then driving, sleeping in the car/tent and cooking tinned food on camp fire. I'm strictly 5 star hotel kind of girl.

I dumped somebody on the grounds that he was unfamiliar with the nutritional content of baked beans.

HairyPlopper · 29/05/2014 14:32

He wanted to hang his collection of John Wayne plates up in my flat.
See ya!!

BoffinMum · 29/05/2014 14:34

He had a monobrow and I decided I didn't like it after all.
I gather I was not the first. ShockGrin

jalapenobusiness · 29/05/2014 14:35

his jaw clicked when he ate.

another one i dumped because my friends didn't think he was good looking enough - 7 years later we met again and i didn't give a rats what anyone thought - we have a baby now and are trying for another - and will be married soon.

TyrannosaurusBex · 29/05/2014 14:40

Oh, thought of two more: aged 17 dumped somebody because of the furry seat covers he'd bought for his car.

Somebody else because I suspected him of liking Queen. Not sure why I didn't just ask him...

Tucking his jumper into his chinos *shudders

I've had three men tell me they love me after the first only time we had sex.

It's a running joke with my friends Hmm I never saw any of those 3 men again.

AllAboveBroad · 29/05/2014 15:02

Jiggled his beer gut in front of my friend the first time they met and said "all bought and paid for.."

Tigerygiraffe · 29/05/2014 15:34

He referred to himself in the third person

He was shorter than me (I'm 5.1)

Massive mother issues- possibly Norman Bates level

He arranged to take me to his uncles fancy restaurant. I was 17 and spent hours getting ready - it was a chip van on the side of a crappy country road. I ate my burger grimly & told him I needed to go home early as it made me feel sick

Finished with a guy that was a really wet kisser yuckkk

"Wore moon boots to a night club" - that just made me spit my cup of tea everywhere! Well done Grin

Ok, here goes, four different men, obvs:

  1. Really sloppy kisser, like an over-enthusiastic spaniel licking my face.
  1. Micro penis. Such a shame, as he had the face and body of a marauding Viking. Lovely guy as well.
  1. Really skinny wrists and forearms, with very long and wispy arm hair.
  1. When I was 18, stayed over at my boyfriend's house on a Saturday night and borrowed a pair of his tracky bottoms in the morning to wear while we ate breakfast (knowing me, I'd probably been wearing a micro-skirt the night before). We'd been going out for a couple of months. While we were eating, he declared that when we were married, every Sunday morning would be like this. Scared the bejesus out of me.
CabbagesAndKings · 29/05/2014 15:54

I feel a bit sorry for the nice guys with the tiny willies, but honestly, what's a girl to do? It's a lose lose situation where nobody is to blame Grin

CuChullain · 29/05/2014 16:07

Trivial for some, important to me!!!

Dated a women a few times who flat out refused to offer to pay for anything, not even a single drink.

Dated another women for a while and after the first time we had sex she reached over to her bag bedside and sparked up a fag while lying in bed. I did not even know she smoked up until that point.

Dated a women who did not know how to ride a bike, and I don’t mean just being a bit wobbly and nervous, she literally could not ride a few metres without falling over sideways. For some reason it really annoyed me!

Another women who suggested that now I was seeing her I should stop playing rugby at weekends.

Another women who simply could not hold her drink and she was incapable moderation so every time we went out I would have to scrape her off the pavement and carry her home. It came to a head one night when despite my best efforts to slow down her boozing she ended up staggering around town with me in tow trying to hail a taxi, most of which wanted nothing to do with us. She then decided she was hungry and proceeded to order the biggest hot dog on offer from one of those dodgy street vendors at which point she fell over into me smearing mustard, ketchup and onions down the front of my suit and shirt before getting sick on my shoes. After much pleading and begging I finally managed to convince a taxi driver that she was not going to be sick in his cab and we got home. As per usual she could not remember a thing the next morning and accused me of making stuff up, even after I showed her my soiled suit. I left and never called her again.

He was a dwarf. We went to a theme park. He was too small to go on any of the rides.

I feel stupid now as I really fancy tyrion in game of thrones

Lweji · 29/05/2014 16:10

One woman, two women. Just saying. HTH. Grin

Rommell · 29/05/2014 16:14

We had a disagreement about Australia's immigration policy.

Which was actually quite small beer compared to the fact that a couple of weeks later he was arrested and charged as part of a high-profile fraud case.

Rommell · 29/05/2014 16:14

NB we were not in Australia.

Joliolio · 29/05/2014 16:15

Is that a euphemism?

Slutbucket · 29/05/2014 16:18

I dumped my boyfriend over a very offensive waistcoat and white polo neck combination. It was so very wrong.....

Lweji · 29/05/2014 16:18

Was he sent to Australia as part of his sentence? Wink
