    Yep. Can't expect a fat 45 year old to have the same prospects as a young fit 25 year old. Something's gotta give.


    Curiously enough... :p


    (although I'm about five years off 45 yet :pac:)


    If they have no idea how to apply makeup properly. They could be incredibly attractive, fantastic personality, etc... but outside the lines with their lipstick, or badly done eyeliner wings, or a half-on/half-off fake lash... jaysis :(

    I will admit to the following shallow hal moments in my past:

    1) Her boobs were too small in fact they were almost non existant and she wore a padded bra. I didn't realise this for a few weeks and it was extremely off putting when we got intimate for the first time, I couldn't get over it and so there ended that.

    2) She had a really gravelly voice, I thought it was ok at first for a few months but it then started to really annoy me to the point where I simply couldn't stand it any longer and ended the relationship.

    3) She was very religious and was always going to mass. She also made it very clear from the start that she didn't believe in sex before marriage which I was actually ok with at the start. What got to me in the end was the religion and god bless this and god bless that and thank god for this and that and so on. I 'ghosted' on her.


    Lord save us and guard us

    Eating sloppily or very noisily with mouth open. One of those things that wouldn't bother me at first but as time went on it would drive me insane.

    No indoor voice, if we're out and about and having a conversation I dont want the whole bloody restaurant hearing our conversation...or at least his side of it because he doesn't have an indoor voice!

    Totally shallow of me, but if a guy is shorter than me , 5'5'', I tend to dismiss him as boyfriend/ whatever else material.
    Not meanly to his face, just in my head.....

    My friend pointed out that mah new beau looked a bit like a hedgehog.

    It was in the back of my mind when we attended a show together, where he volunteered himself for an act. Up on stage, noticeably shorter than everyone else & blinking rapidly/squinting into the bright stage lighting from behind his glasses. Then the song 'Bright Eyes' from Watership Down came on... And the transformation was complete in my mind's eye.

    He was legit a woodland creature.

    I broke up with him the next day.

    Anyone who likes to portray themselves as a nice guy, if you're nice you don't need to go around saying it.

    Accent. The Northern Irish accent grinds my gears. I had this gorgeous blonde coming onto me at a party a few years ago, but I avoided her because of her accent :(

    Jewellery on a man. If he's wearing a necklace, ring or ear rings its a deal breaker for me. Can't stand it

    No, seriously, how does anyone tolerate anyone else for more than five minutes? How will I ever not annoy the sh** out of someone I like with all my habits that are shallow dealbreakers for them? I'm going to be a celibate nun and take a vow of silence :D

    Aye, when you actually like someone the 'dealbreakers' don't matter. If someone had told me a year ago I'd be going out with a tone-deaf practically vegan who can't cook I'd have laughed at them.

    There are certain bits of pop culture where if we didn't both like/hate it it might be a problem. Like I really would think less of someone who loved the Big Bang Theory or hated The Simpsons
