AIBU to judge people on their teeth?

Met a guy on Saturday night who just called me. I refused a date because he has a couple of missing teeth. Okay so maybe I'm shallow but it matters to me.

Why do people kid themselvesi that if teeth are gone at the back it doesn't notice? It does and it makes me cringe. So do rotting, or neglected teeth.

If you want to date, sort it out. Take out a loan if you have to!

My posts aren't nasty. They are factual. It is a fact that not everyone can afford to get their teeth sorted the way they would like.

So stop chasing me around on threads.

If we're going to clear it up once for all.

Don't start bloody stupid threads that will upset multitudes of vulnerable people anymore.

My teeth aren't straight, I have been quoted 3,000 for orthodontics I don't have this! However they are healthy regular dentists and hygienists . It's never caused me a problem attracting men and been with DH 19 years 2nd Dc on way. I am self conscious and never smile with my mouth open. However in the scheme of things there are worse things rob worry about!

I said that I will not date someone that doesn't do what I have done. Your post was nasty Vag.

Who's chasing you around?

You might find, if you check carefully enough, that I posted on this thread waaaaay before you did.

Theres a huge difference between un straight teeth and dirty rotten ones or missing ones at the front, On. I don't care if they are wonky etc.

I will not date a man that doesn't look after his mouth. It's my prerogative.

I totally get where the OP is coming from.

HoneyDragon · 25/01/2016 20:21

We're going to need a really big naughty step at this rate.....

Vaginaaa · 25/01/2016 20:21

Rose, I am a bit concerned about your ability to remember or read your own posts never mind ones by other people!

rosewithoutthorns · 25/01/2016 20:22

Goodness gracious me.

Some people are just strange and nasty.

LilacSpunkMonkey · 25/01/2016 20:23

The phrase 'pot, kettle, black' springs to mind here...

Sparklingbrook · 25/01/2016 20:23

Is rose trying to say she won't date a man with bad teeth? i can't quite work it out. Grin

Vaginaaa · 25/01/2016 20:24

rosewithoutthorns · 25/01/2016 20:24

I have said what I wanted so will hide this now.

Do any of you regular nasties ever look back wonder what has made you like this?

Sad very Sad

SagaNorensLeatherTrousers · 25/01/2016 20:25

What a thread! Icy fingers?? The OP is probably thinking "thank fuck rose showed up" right about now. Grin

Sparklingbrook · 25/01/2016 20:25
