[misdee]

for me, its manky toenails. you know, when they have gone all yellow and hard and they need a chain saw to cut them. yuk yuk [misdee goes to be sick]

I must admit, I do find some languages very easy to get my tongue around

men who walk round shirtless in public. yuk

I'm attempting to learn Italian at the moment and really enjoying it.

So far, "can i have a coffe, please" doesn't really sound that romantic to DW, though!

oooh hairy backs .!on men!!!dead skin on feet.men and women!people who eat badly too .u know open mouths and smacking is what we call it round here which means eating really loudly.

Apologies for joining this thread late. I've only just registered. In fact, this is my first ever post! Hooray.

Oh, and I'm a dad. Of course.

Probably not sensible to dwell on physical characteristics because some of us like curvy women (yum), some like skinny, some like blondes, some like brunettes, some like tattoos and some don't, etc. etc. But as a general rule, here are a few things which would have been guaranteed, back in my 'dating' days, to put me off someone:

• Moaning about what a git your ex is/was. Your ex may well be a git, or he may not. Without hearing his side of things, I have no idea. Not a good subject.

• Finding men more attractive the bigger their wallet is (viz. some of Dragon's Den comments in TV section about Peter Jones & Duncan Ballantyne). Comes across as shallow, believe it or not.

• Not having anything much to talk about. Having no opinions on anything.

• Not listening when your date is talking. Looking round as if hoping someone more exciting (and probably with a wallet the size of Peter Jones's) will walk in the door.

Nose Hair.
Back Hair.
Bum Hair.
Picking and flicking - both nose and bum.
Lifting butt cheek to enable better escape of fart.
Farting under duvet and not mentioning it till I get into bed and let it out & nearly die.
Scratching arse/nadgers in public.
Staring at other womens tits while standing with me. Letching in general.
Moaning about me going out alone but it's ok for them to.
Lack of personal hygiene.

I'm sure there's a lot more but DS wants taking to bed....
