Re: Biggest turnoff
I actually have several. Women who cuss like a sailor. Smoking. Purfume and cologne. Not being told why she does not want to see me again. When se shows a picture in her personals ad, it turns me off to see guys in the picture. I do not want to date these guys. It is the woman I want to date. Plus, kids are good, I like kids. Just do not go overboard on pictures of the kids.
I like feminine women. Women who act like a lady, and cussing is not ladylike. When it comes out of the mouth of a woman, it is disguting. Yes, a few will slip. That happens to most of us, however, when every other word (it seems) is a vulgar slang term for sex, that really turns me off... Big time.
Smoking. I am offended by smoke. No matter who does it. I have dated very attractive women to find out they whip that cigerette and lighter out of their purse, and light up. I got up and left. I told them my feelings, but left. I will put this as mildly as I can. I think a woman with a cigerette hanging out of her mouth looks trashy. And cigars? You have GOT to be kidding.
I am highly allergic to purfume and cologne. Some, musk in particular, sends me into respritory arrest nearly. I am unable to breathe, I get lathargic, my eyes dry out, I sneeze, and am VERY uncomfortable. Yes. Most guys like this stuff. But do not automatically think the guy does. Be polite and ask in advance. Most smell alike to me... And not pleasent.
Not being told why she does not want to see me again. In other words, just ignoring me. The other person deserves to know why. If I am ugly to you, I am very sorry. I am not able to change that. If I am too overweight, I am working on that one. Chances are, she is a bit also. If it is a presonality conflict, the way I act, or anything like that, I deserve to know. How can you correct something if you do not know what is wrong? This also goes for personal ad sites. Do not give a canned response. Chances are it is a lie anyway. Be honest. Personally, I will accept "no" gracefully if you are kind enough to tell me truthfully. Otherwise, expect to be bambarded with email until you do. I know a lot of people do not want to hurt someones feelings, but they fail to realize not knowing the true reason why hurts more. Sometimes, a person must risk that hurt. It will heal over time. Not knowing does not.
There are probably more.
