What has a guy done that instantly made you lose interest?

The ones that spring to mind:

  • Thought Jordan Peterson 'had some interesting ideas.
  • Used 'female' as a noun.
  • Let me pay half. I always offered, but if you let me, there would be no second date.
  • Really poor spelling and grammar. Not the occasional mistake or lapse (we all make them), practicaly unintelligible messages.
  • Said he 'wasn't a reader'
  • Was a picky eater.
  • Was teetotal.
  • Was religious.
  • Wore a chain.
  • Didn't drink water.

The dating pool has pee in it and, on top of that, I'm fairly unreasonable. I'm very happy I met my husband. 🤣

Men who say they are ‘dominant’. It’s always just code for ‘I like to abuse women’.

I like a natural polarity between masculine and feminine, but it’s more a feeling and it’s either there or it’s not. It’s subtle. If you have to tell people it’s not a thing.

Watched a woman pass our table and follow her past with his eyes dropping to her bum before asking me to repeat what I was saying.

My ex did this too on a date - a woman with a low cut top on walked in and his eyes followed her around the room whilst I was in the middle of trying to talk to him and he then asked me to repeat myself

One insisted on paying after I'd told him I always go halves. I didn't like that.He was a bit older and said it was because he'd been in the army and was an officer and a gentleman, that he must pay.

After I didn't see him again, he messaged saying he'd like a woman who would join him in attending events etc. It just came across as really desperate. I mean, some women like a night out regardless of who they're with, but I wouldn't enjoy an evening spent with someone I didn't like and seemed to virtually have his tongue hanging out.

Oh that was the notorious one who, in bed, said 'how do you keep the figure of a fifteen year old girl' (?!) and 'this is one for the wank bank.'

🤢🤢
