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 took me to TGI Fridays on a second date. I hate TGI Fridays - there's plenty of places just as cheap and not as nasty sniff

I like briefs. Hate boxers with the enviable gap and hanging out bollock. Hate trunks as they look too tight,thick and unhygienic.

ThatBloodyWoman · 28/05/2014 17:23

I had another one who called his car a motor.

And another who wanted to snog all the time.

Queueing up to buy Whigfield's "Saturday Night" single on the day it came out.

To be fair, he was also an arse who only dated me to be in with a chance with one of my friends, but the musical lack of taste was a clincher.

A few months later I came close to asking someone out purely because of the books and CDs on his shelves (lots of each). As it turned out, he was also ludicrously handsome - a pity he lived in Dublin and I didn't.

Grin at 'His chin annoyed me.'

Personally, I've only ever been the dumpee, not the dumper

but I did once kick out a one-night stand because he refused to go down on me pity, it was in Nirvana's era and he looked a lot like pretty Kurt.

GottaGetThisOut · 28/05/2014 17:26

My friend called time on a new bloke after three dates because he was rubbish at Crash Bandicoot.

SuburbanRhonda · 28/05/2014 17:26

eddielizzard · 28/05/2014 17:27

didn't know how to drive his porsche. ugh gives me shivers and it was 15 years ago.

DurhamDurham · 28/05/2014 17:28

Just remembered another......I ended another relationship because he kept pushing his glasses back on his face in a Clarke Kent type manner....it drove me mad. I used to want to scream " Leave your fucking glasses alone man!!"

But I didn't because I was already becoming a much nicer person Grin

cantbelievethisishppening · 28/05/2014 17:29

He had really small slightly chubby hands. I could not stop looking at them. Blush

daisychain01 · 28/05/2014 17:30

Non-removal of socks

About 6 times actually, more fool me! Was fine accepting blow jobs though!

JennyOnTheBlocks · 28/05/2014 17:31

When talking about football, he referred to the team as 'we'

Proper grated my nips off it did

Also dumped a b/f on valentines day for giving me a soft toy with 'horny devil' emblazoned over the front of it - I burnt that on an open fire Grin

daisychain01 · 28/05/2014 17:32

Oops sorry not you Cardinal. I did mean cardinal, lower case, not emboldened.

madasa · 28/05/2014 17:32

He called his underwear 'undies' and had antimacassars on his sofa ...I think I just died a little inside remembering that

numptieseverywhere · 28/05/2014 17:37

he fed cannabis to his fish...
he smoked cannabis in bars and we got thrown out.
Actually, that's not so trivial

SlimJiminy · 28/05/2014 17:44

Also dumped someone who made a "nym" sound before starting a sentence.

50KnockingonabiT · 28/05/2014 17:44

his car, I say car, it was more of an ashtray on wheels. When I opened the passenger door fag ends fell out. The foot well was full, bleurgh

PipkinsPal · 28/05/2014 17:47

Being told when having sex "It's just like shagging a school girl". I was 36 and he was 45 Shock

ShakesBootyFlabWobbles · 28/05/2014 17:48

slimJiminy even reading and hearing that nym sound made me go eugh so YWNBU to dump! Grin How annoying.

facedontfit · 28/05/2014 17:51

I didn't like his anorak.

Got jealous of my cat love of my life and tried to push her off my lap.

weatherheather · 28/05/2014 17:55

He wore tan shoes Grin

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 28/05/2014 17:56

CabbagesandKings I wonder if your vampire is someone I used to know... did he specifically think (and I mean really think) he was Angel from Buffy? To the point of learning martial arts and conspicuously doing a mysterious disappearing act in the middle of conversations?
