Pettiest reason you won’t date someone?

Question

What is the pettiest reason you wouldn’t date or broke up with someone?

Everyone told me he was a red flag because he slept with a girl before. He told me he's easily emotionally attached and *basically* declared he was confident with spending his life with me after knowing me for 2 months.

I felt he was naive and going through what people say, "blinded by young love" so I told him I wasn't interested. There are many other factors though.

For instance, his lifestyle and work ethics are really different from mine. I like to sleep early, he sleeps at 5am. I tried to stay up late but I can't handle it during morning classes. I feel freaking dead. I just feel like we clash a lot and didn't feel like I should be changing myself to make it work.

The only thing we have in common is interest in gaming, anime, pets, etc. but I don't think it's a good enough reason to date him.

He’s too obsessed with Pokemon. I like pokemon too but it’s literally all he would talk about plus he only texts me first when he wants to talk about guess what? Pokemon…

So I got this OCD issue called retroactive jealousy, and it fucking sucks. I think entirely too much about a significant other's sexual past. I don't devalue her for it, but I torment myself with the fact other guys experienced her like that. So I don't date anyone who's had sex.

The woman had the ugliest feet I ever saw. The rest of her was pretty nice, but those Flintstone feet were terrible. I tried to just not look down, but I mean they were like so bad I could not look away, and she wore flip flops and/or went barefoot all the time.

I once rejected a guy for saying Yoda was ugly because I thought he lacked compassion for old people and I rejected another guy because I thought he only liked me for my sense of humour.

Not in any particular order, all equally petty:
1. He's not tall enough or too tall for petite me.
2. He's unhealthily obese.
3. He has an obviously obnoxious personality.
4. He appears to have poor hygiene.
5. He's clearly not my type.

I think the pettiest reason I ever had was a guy's accent. I went on 3 dates with this guy who was soooo sweet and he was gorgeous. I just couldn't stand to hear him talk. lol. It was VERY petty and I tried to talk myself out of the feeling of nails on a chalkboard, but I had to cut him loose.

SphynxUK · Answer

I’m ruthless!
Won’t have anyone who has the same name, appearance or profession of my ex husband.
Where dating apps are concerned, multiple bare chests or gym pics, tongue out photos and stupid bios are a no no. Oh, and goodbye to those with 10 closed mouth photos! That’s telling me something!

Overweight man (I’m in good shape so I will hold you to a standard especially if I meet it).
Smokes (your breath probably isn’t that great).
Cusses like a sailor (it doesn’t take a genius to have an extended vocabulary beyond 4 letter cuss words).

Height. I don't want tall men. I want them around my height (5'7) and don't mind them a few inches shorter. I'm super petty about it and because of it, I am actually a source of amusement for my relatives.

Her name. I don’t like the names Olga, Bertha, Bianca. The first two names sound like overweight women. Bianca sounds like a stuck up brats name. Or if her second toe is longer than her big toe lol

If they won't shut up about Harry Potter or kids things in general. It's weird to me when an adult is obsessed with stuff like that.

A lady who I used to work with wouldn't date a guy because he had goats. I don't know what her problem with that was. This IS sort of an agricultural area.

I don't consider it legitimately petty, but I wouldn't date a feminist or a Muslim woman. It's for ideological reasons.

I wouldn't date someone because she didn't dress warmly in the winter. It was so strange, I couldn't do it!

Anonymous · Answer

I wouldn't date this one woman because she looked too much like my ex-wife. Not only did it bring up some bad feelings every time I saw her, I wasn't about to give my ex that satisfaction.
