Little things that put you off going out with someone

I was thinking today about the little things over the course of my dating years men have done/said that instantly made me think "nope, not you". They were probably perfectly nice people in retrospect...

  1. Looked mildly nonplused about a woman in a picture having underarm hair.

  2. Liked Miranda.

  3. Used the phrase "wedding tackle".

There are probably countless more. Tell me yours...

  1. Spent more than two minutes "grooming" to go out.

lol that's a funny collection.

  1. Smells dirty in any way.
  2. Didn't like anything I watched.
  3. Didn't like animals paid no attention what so ever at a 5k marine tank lol.
  4. Used the phrase "safe, seen or innit".
  5. Being desperate.
  6. Non driver - I'm too old to be a taxi.
  7. No Job for ages and has a professional bum lifestyle.

I dumped someone, and he didn;t care for it, so he came to a party where I was with the new lad and stared at us all night before very ostentatiously going to sleep on the doorstep and claiming that he'd almost died of hypothermia. And people believed this!!!
He also pissed the bed on our first date, and used to get his dad to drive him to my house.
Oh! AND put butter on top of cheese on his cheese on toast.

Telling me just before he put his dick in me "this is going to hurt" 😬

It didn't even touch the sides and I spent the duration of the sex asking him if it was in yet?
