Oh and the anal thing. Some of you boys just can't be pleased.

:p

I think the guys with deep voices generally tend to want anal sex...you better compromise.

Dealbreakers for me:

- Smokers. (I have extremely sensitive asthma, this isn't me being picky, this me wanting to live past 22.)

- Homophobics, racists, or sexists.

- Somebody with a lack of respect for the elderly.

- Not dealing with the fact that my two best-friends are male. (Just because I am friends with them doesn't mean that I want to rip their clothes off and do naughty things to them.)

- Lack of ambition.

- Talking to my breasts instead of my face. (I am fully aware that they are big and stick out there, but that doesn't mean that they do the thinking for me, you should be trying to impress me and not them)

-Lying.

The girl has to be open-minded, I went on a date with a girl and she wouldnt try cous-cous.

She has to have ambition, drive, goals, aspirations, and so on.

She has to have substance, so many girls dont nowadays. A lot of the girls at my school care about their express clothes and other materialistic things more than actual people.

In the end that stuff doesnt matter.

You know, it's sad but there are a lot of people in this world that care more about material possessions than they do about other things, people and places.

And yes, in the end it doesn't even matter, some will realize that in their lifetime, some will not.

I know I want to look back on my life and be proud of all of it (a little L.T. from Any Given Sunday). There is so much more to life than what is in style or what car is awesome to have or what necklace or handbag or hat or ring is in style this season.

AMEN to anal sex...thats just wrong on so many levels. Lord, I don't even wanna think about it...:eek:

Oh and for the record:
*guys who are fat (not into the whole "bubba" thing)

You should have taken one for the team.

What if they're interested in two things? Possibly even three?

I'll list the qualities that I desire rather than the ones I want to avoid.
Kind
A Good friend
Sincere/Honest
Tall
Fun
Funny
Respects me, my family, and women in general

Basically I want a good, decent, kind, well-rounded man who shares my values and goals and treats me with respect and love. Someone I can be proud to call my partner.

James 08-09-2002 12:45 AM

LOL, that is probably the most realistic reply I have seen so far:).

Thank you, James. So hmmm do you know anyone like this?

James 08-09-2002 01:05 AM

Damn people . . . I just want to say: Fall in love much?

I am not quite as nit picky as most of you . . . but I guess in the spirirt of what is posted I can write down some of the qualities that might be the difference between Ms. Right and Ms. Right now. This is something quite a few guys and some gals I know agree on.

Remember: This applies more to the forever idea.

Deal Breakers:

1. Struggles with her weight. If she is struggling now what is she going to look in 10 years or after children?

2. Has any problems with physical intimacy and sex (in terms of comfortable with her body and you). If during infatuation, when you feel the closest, she has these problems they are just going to get worse and you are going to be her husband not her therapist :p This covers body image problems as well as being uptight about sex.

3. Has a good relationship with her mom . . and her mom is a real "piece of work" :rolleyes: Old male axiom: Look at the mom, there is your future wife.

4. Likes bad drama. . . we all know the type . . . life is adversarial enough without going home to it.

5. Treats her pets better than people . . . [i]she will take better care of them than you, and lets face it you can never be as unconditionally devoted as her pets. [/]

6. IS not very attuned with her emotions and not very articulate ina good way. It means her lack of ability to speak well and express herself meaningfully will hurt you almost every day you spend with her!

7. This goes with number 6: Dramatically angry. Do you like things thrown at you?

8. Also goes with number 6: Passive Agressive Hello, days of uncomfortable attitude filled with constant "Fine" and "whatever's" with you trapped in marriage.

These were the ones a bunch of my male friends and some of my female friends agreed on.:D

A lot of the ones you people named seemed pretty trivial and destined to leave you unhappy. :)

This is gonna be looooong post:)

If I sound at all shallow...I'm sorry, but I am WAY picky cuz of my dad's six marriages...I don't want to end up like him:)


*Is violent in ANY way, shape, or form. I do not tolerate it and NEVER will again!

*Talks to me like I'm his slave, cook, or waitress, you know condescending. I DEMAND respect dammit!

*Doesn't care about how he looks and wears the same clothes for weeks at a time...YUCKY! and SMELLY!

*Has no respect for authority and rules...if he can't follow them, how is he gonna follow MY orders:)

*Cannot put up a good fight in an arguement because he has no opinions on anything...so he's boring.

*Is not affectionate and will not leggo of his machoness to tell me he loves me in his Kermit voice...scary, but oh-so cute:)

*Has bad skin- I had bad skin when I was in middle school...very traumatic...so it sorta turns me off...

*Make fun of other GLOs, this really pisses me off!

*Acts like an A$$HOLE in front of my friends or coworkers. So, he makes me look like an ass for bein with them.

*Doesn't have a drop of jealousy in his blood...I like to feel wanted, so he needs to be a little jealous...

*Can't make me laugh or smile when I feel like crap.

*Hates children, my whole life revolves around them cause of my job and my future as a mom and teacher. I want someone who love them as much as I do!

*Someone who doesn't appreciate me for who I am as a person, individual, and WOMEN!

*Someone who has no ambition or goals. I do NOT want to support someone who won't get off his LAZY a$$! Yes, BROOKS I'm reffering to YOU!

See, shallow huh? I'm sorry, I just demand a lot because I truely feel a WOMEN should demand it.

However, if I find someone who does possess one of the traits up above and I still love them...Then you know it's true love!

I have about a 1000 more, but don't want to bore you more than I already have:)

FiReKraCkEr 08-09-2002 02:20 AM

OK, I'll add a new dealbreaker:

*Can not have curly, bright red hair or tweeze his eyebrows so they are thinner than mine.

P.S. I said he has to make me laugh....Carrot Top=make Ivory cringe, not laugh

Rudey 08-09-2002 02:36 AM

APhi 08-09-2002 11:48 AM

You guys crack me up

After reading through this I've determined that I really have just one major qualification, good conversationalist.

I'm a Gemini, I talk a lot. I'm fairly bright by all accounts. I go off on little tangents and semi-philosophical babble and generally meaningless chit chat like nobody's business. I'm really just looking for a guy that can keep up with me. This is probably why I keep ending up with fellow Gemini's.... hmmm....

Edited to add:
Back to the subject at hand - Dealbreakers. Freshman year, first date, cute boy. He says to me, "the new Crash Test Dummies album is really good." (think Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm song.)
That was a dealbreaker.

Another big one, guys in their mid 20's should not act like 18 year olds. By the time you're my age your 'experimentation' phases should be behind you. You can still get loaded but it should be MUCH less often then when we were in college. Also, you should have learned by now to sip a beer with friends and leave it at that. Unbelievable how many guys that rules out.

uh, how are those shallow? what self respecting woman wants to date a boring, lazy, dirty guy who doesn't appreciate her, and beats her

librasoul22 08-09-2002 12:00 PM

Deal breakers for me:

No drugs worse than weed/alchohol.

Can't HOLD alcohol. I love to drink (not get DRUNK, just drink), and if I can drink you under the table then you gotta go.

No EXCESSIVE alcohol. Getting drunk is fun if it happens about once a month or less. Otherwise it gets kinda old.

Not masculine enough. I like macho, arrogant, manly men. It is a challenge. Plus, I like sports and stuff, so I need a guy who is not scared off by that.

Too thin. Sorry to the thin guys, but I need a solid, muscular man.

Must have ambition. Also must be able to make a way where there is no way. ALSO MUST BE LOYAL.

Rio_Kohitsuji 08-10-2002 12:08 PM

Why can't all the people of the world read this thread and conform??? It would make mate selection much easier. *nods*
Here's mine:
-NO smoking. (dealt w/it for 2 years, no more)
-Likes to drink yet not an alcoholic
-No checking out any othergirls in front of me!! Away from me, I don't care. heh.
-Must like kiddies, but have none of their own!
-Has to be in college, I do not like quitters.
-He has to be able to just sit down and talk w/my brother-in-laws
-No EXCESSIVE momma's boys!!!!!!
-No "I feel like you're the one for me, let's get married.." when it's been less than a week
- ...and low sex drive and/or low creativity

PotentialPledge 08-10-2002 06:28 PM

I just have a comment for some people out there. You're not a quitter if you dont go to college. College isnt for everyone. I mean I would prefer a girl that was in college, but if I happen to meet one that is not and really like her I would still go out with her. Ive met some really smart intelligent people that didnt go to college.

Rio_Kohitsuji 08-14-2002 02:25 PM

Oops, let me explain what I meant

I better clarify what I meant :) Mostly for the guys (in my case) that have the chance to excel in college (money, intelligence..) yet, then prefers to do nothing and sit at home playing on his computer with no job and no intent to get a job of some sort. (<--yes, this was bitterness, lol)

If event would happen in which my current boyfriend couldn't attend, then it would be a whole different story, I'd be with him no matter what. I just do not like people who have the means to do great things w/their life yet are lazy and not fulfil anything while others struggle in trying to succeed. :)

PotentialPledge 08-14-2002 06:58 PM

gotcha, I know a lot of people like that. I think its sad when people waster their potential.

James 08-14-2002 09:20 PM

Yeah kind of like the myriads of people that go to college get decent grades and go on to do nothing significant . . . or make medium amounts of money . . . Ticket punching at its finest. *yawn*

Why am I the bad guy all of a sudden? You know I'm stupid enough to do that, I'm just saying there's something wrong with this picture.....if you're not making something of yourself you shouldn't enjoy the finer things in life...........

Oh, and you'd miss......and the bat would be right around your jaw..............If you don't wanna hear about it then don't read it

CarolinaDG 08-14-2002 11:00 PM

When it comes down to it, girls and guys a lot alike in one way... we both like a challenge.

A too-nice guy is my dealbreaker. I want a bad boy on the outside, good boy on the inside.
