    Bad breath is a huge turnoff

    bad spelling! that sounds really shallow, but I hate it in men, oh and food in someone's teeth.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,154 ✭✭✭rednik


    Toe jam :eek:
    Hairy chest on a woman. :eek:

    For example guys putting knifes into their mouths to suck food off.

    thats some kinky shit you got goin on there, with a bit of sadistic madness added with the knife in there too, OUCH.

    Smoker breath,
    alcoholic,
    druggie,
    etc.

    And people who scream a lot...

    in a way these are two of my favourite things in a girl.. as in not addicted to drugs, but someone funky, a bit crazy... consumes a lot of chewing gum.
    And who scream a lot...
    Well that's just being greedy

    Something that really turns me off is negativity. I like happy girls who really couldn't give a damn about the bad stuff.

    Those are not trivial. I am talking about the inexplicabily shallow stuff that you become aware of that makes you stop fancying someone. Flaky skin on their scalp, really ugly shoes, trousers too short and wedged up their ass.

    You will never be happy, you try to find faults in everyone :(

    Anyone Irish person that speaks with an American or fake south Dublin accent turns me off immediately. I just cannot take them seriously and automatically think they are somewhat lacking.

    Definitely a +1 on this no matter how good looking they are!

    Think that goes for everyone TBH :)

    WTF??? :confused:


    And my own. Insecurity, cold sores, jealousy, girls that are wayyyy too quiet. Sometimes the whole "I don't eat in front of boys" drives me up the wall!!! Also something I've been coming across a lot lately, cocky girls. Seriously, why?

    No I really don't, I am talking early days here. With someone I really fancy the trivial things (and even bigger things) don't register at all. It is funny, when you genuinely fancy some one, their less then desirable traits are endearing. Some bad/gross things I can find quite cute. Lifes rich tapestry etc.
    I do find it funny though the find of trivial things that people mention as turn-offs. Like a male friend would say women drinking pints is gross, but I think with the right woman it would not matter a jot.
    I am more thinking instant crushes that stop in their tracks for something silly..with the right person that never really happens.

    P.s happiness comes from within, does not depend on another person

    Guys with excessive body hair freak me out esp. on their backs.

    I also dislike when they have a word they overuse.
    One guy i knew used the word 'seemingly' too much. It got to the point where when he said it i just wanted to rip my ears off just so i could throw them at him.

    Male genitalia.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,255 ✭✭✭anonymous_joe


    Fake tan. Not a fan of it. Or too much makeup in general.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,986 ✭✭✭Red Hand


    I dunno. It's the major rather trivial things that turn me off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,689 ✭✭✭✭OutlawPete


    Even slightly being obnoxious, stuck-up or rude.

    A girl could be a ten out of ten but if she has a nasty personality, instantly I would see them as ugly.

    Works the other way too for me.

    A girl can be very plain looking but if she has friendly eyes and genuine warmth to her personality, then suddenly I am looking at them like they are Angelina Jolie.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭Columbia


    Being late for stuff. Even if it's just 5 minutes, I've made the effort to be there on time, and if the other person hasn't then that's something which really gets on my nerves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 542 ✭✭✭milly4ever


    long nails on a man- just wrong.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16 MrsKitka


    Cheap cologne, smoke, bad breath... my turn-offs are smell-related. If I smell you in the night and you stink then you're not getting any...

    She said it was just a figment of speech
    And I said, "You mean figure?"
    And she said, "No, figment"
    Because she could never imagine it happening
    But it did.

    When we first met I played the shy boy
    And when she spoke to me for the first time
    My nose began to bleed
    She guessed the rest

    The next day we went on a bus ride to the ferry
    And when nobody came to collect our fares
    Well, I knew then this was something special
    I couldn?t stop thinking about her
    And every time I switched on the radio
    There was somebody else singing a song about the two of us

    It was just like being on a fast ride at the funfair
    The sort you wanna get off because it?s scary
    And then as soon as you?re off
    You wanna get straight back on again

    But our love is strange
    And you have to take the crunchy with the smooth I s'pose
    She began going out with Mr Potato Head
    It was when I saw her in the car park
    With his coat around her shoulders that I realised
    I went home and thought about the two of them together
    Until the bath water went cold around me

    I thought about her eyes and the curve of her breasts
    And about the point where their bodies met
    I confronted her about it.
    I said, "I?m the most illegible bachelor in town."
    And she said, "Yea, that's why I can never understand
    Any of those silly letters you send me."

    And then one day it happened
    She cut 'er hair and I stopped lovin' 'er[/Q

    logged in just to thank you for that, Mr. Bragg:)

    People who scratch their holes and then sniff the hand.

    Was on the Luas red recently and a chubby porker in saggy track suit bottom jams the left paw deep up her arse crack and does a bit of open face mining. Rooting the fcuker around as if the tapeworms had gone a bit postal.:eek:

    Then up to the schnozzle and sniffs...


    Yeeeecht..... gross.:eek:


    Not a bother on her.

    That would be a bit of a deal breaker alright, Flutt.

    The 'chubby porker' bit and the saggy tracksuit sound delightful too

    County jerseys....that's trivial.

    If they're judgemental about trivial things, I'm out of there.

    -women with bad breath
    -women who think they are waaaay better looking than they really are
    -women who insist on always looking bitchy that smirk at other women all the time and are afraid to smile.
    -women with orange hands as a result as a result of putting on a ridiculous amount of fake tan.
    -women with a strong "working class" accent, which is very shallow on my part because some of the nicest girls I know have that accent ,they cant help it
    -women that are waaaay over arty, the ones that insist they are the most different person in the room, you know the ones with the crazy clothes and 40 piercings and 100 tattoos.
    -women who hate even neat stubble,/facial hair on a bloke, so next time I hear a girl doesnt like it , don't worry you weren't my type anyway!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 453 ✭✭gonnaplayrugby


    'zany' types. could never be friends with people like that.

    Anyone who believes 'there may be something to astrology' or thinks they saw a ghost when they were younger.
