In relationships, what gives you the ICK?

[Flutterbye22]

Give me your worst pet peeves!

for me, it’s got to be poor hygiene, bad manners, really weird sex noises (lol).

Guessing you are single

Northern accent takes the biscuit

I dated a guy who wore red socks once, had a cowboy hat in his bedroom, sauerkraut in the fridge, said mmm mmm mmm pizza, talked about going to see a fil-um and wore a baseball cap with a radio in to hear football results. And slip on shoes. He played Mash It Up Harry by Ian Dury on repeat. I must have been on drugs, I stayed with him for three months.

More generally, obsession with their phones, gaming, swearing or smoking, giggling at YouTube or TikTok videos like kids and names like Ken or Dennis.

Trackies.

Seriously. Cannot stand them.

Obsessing and getting overly angry about politics and the state of the economy etc and bringing everyone down with non stop ranting about it.

This. See also lecturing about climate change.

Because they make men look like giant toddlers. More so if if they have a matching sweatshirt.

I'm adding filling awkward silences by baby talking to my dog.

I couldn't give a shit about the expression the ick being juvenile I love it - very commonly understood expression!

I'm glad someone else has noticed the resemblance to giant toddler. 😁

Poor hygiene, bad manners, stinginess, short tempers and intolerance. Also introverts, sorry (I'm also an introvert and it just doesn't work together).

Long finger nails. False nails especially 🤮

But also jogging bottoms, muscle vests and sandals/crocs (Together is worse but can't stand them individually either!)

Poor hygiene.

Really strong perfume or aftershave gives me a headache.

Boring people, I want to be with someone who makes me happy and laugh. So apart from the above I don't mind most things physically! I also don't want to be with a yes person, I want to be in an equal partnership where we both make decisions equally.

Being more interested in friends than their partner/family, bad hygiene, drugs, alcohol binges, dislike of animals, sexism and racism, spitting, abusive...the list goes on.

Owning a penis.

More after reading I hadn't thought of! Gaming, spectator sports/couch potatoes. Long finger nails, probably part of personal hygiene and not taking care of oneself. Extreme views, right wing.

Pahaaha

Carrying a coffee cup anywhere other than around the house.

You what now? 👀

The usual, poor hygiene etc. The worst ick was a chap I met whose mother would sit on the edge of his bath, when he was in it, and wash his back and hair for him. He was in his 50's. That gave me serious ick. He thought it was normal

Sounds like a scene from the Joker 🤮

Having a spreadsheet budget.

Yeah, this is seriously not right 😳😳

Constantly making that snort/sniff nose clearing noise
snoring
always having hands down their trousers
loud speaking voice
trying to pull out nose hairs
always twiddling/pulling out and then chewing on beard hairs
skid marks on towels
really smelly farting even when out shopping etc
biting fingernails and picking toenails then throwing them behind couch or just leaving them around the floor and picking feet

What is it about the playing with kids and throwing them in the air that’s a turn off? My ex done this too haha

Belly hang
Stubble that isn’t part of their look
Stinky farts
Silly underwear. How can anyone take a grown man seriously wearing cartoon undies?
Dirty shoes
Dirty hands and fingernails
Bad Breath
Dirty clothes

Goats not respecting them and Pony not trusting them. That's all you need to know.
If the pony doesn't trust them they are untrustworthy and if the goats don't respect them then they will never enhance your life in any meaningful way. This has a 100 percent accuracy over many years.

Crikey, I could have written the exact same post!

Non-matching knickers and bra
Inabiility to reverse park
Too much makeup
Insisting on taking water everywhere
Use of social media
Considering shopping a leisure activity
Talks to dogs in a baby voice
Always late due to faffing about

This is amazing. If it is a journalist I hope they print this! Just that first sentence.

Also I found 'carrying a coffee cup anywhere but around the house' hilarious- so specific but I know what you mean 😂
