Women, What Are YOUR Dating Deal Breakers?

A producer for a talk show approached me and asked if I would get some feedback on women's deal breakers for their would-be suitors, so definitely let me know what you think by leaving a comment below.

What are you deal breakers, ladies?  There are no wrong answers here.  In fact I'll share some of the deal breakers that a few women have given as reasons that they wouldn't date ME!  Yeah, I know!  Unbelievable!! I thought I was not only the most hugable guy around, but I thought I was the most datable, too!

Here are some deal breakers that women have given me over the years as reasons not to date me:

  • Too tall (Yeah, what ever, necky!)
  • Didn't own a watch
  • Didn't own a house
  • Too white! (Huh?)

Those are but a few of the three hundred thousand deal breakers women have shared with me over the years aka last week.

So, lady people, let me know what your deal breakers are.  The more specific the better.  Leave a comment below!

    Big butts. I just don't like them. Also, I don't think I could date someone with no teeth. Teeth are a requirement.

    Fascinating topic! My "dating deal breakers" are him having kids, smoking and if he doesn't have a sense of humor.

    Horrible grammar…don't know why, but just can't do it! And teeth are definitely a requirement, singlegirlie.

    * Not being curious about the world.
    * Not having a grownup apartment — it doesn't have to be expensive, but it shouldn't look like a college dorm.
    * Being rude to a taxi driver or waiter.
    * Clingy
    * Has no friends… that's telling.
    * Lives more than 30 min travel time from me.
    * Then there's the obvious: lying, cheating, etc.

    if they aren't close to their family.
    if they think my political beliefs are laughable. we don't have to agree but we do have to respect each other.
    if they can't laugh at themselves. humor is vital!
    if they don't have their own life. i had a life before i met you, you should complement it not become it.

    Doing drugs of any kind (and yes, even though you disagree with me, it includes pot)
    Having a kid
    Wearing flip flops on the first date (unless we are going to the beach i guess? I know this is a really weird one…)

    I dunno – I think those are my major ones… let me know how this goes…

    My primary dealbreaker:

    Being married to a wife who is dying of cancer and who is also helping him shop around for his next woman.

    Erm, hypothetically speaking, of course…

    not accepting me for who I am, not being able to communicate – If your partner cant be honest and tell you that your ass really does look big in that pair of pants – well where's the truth and honesty? It's one of my pre-date questions in fact
    Hurt me honestly but dont love me with lies

    A guy with no confidence who doesn't know how to take control of a date. EG. asking me to pick the restaurant and talking down on himself at times.
