'Shallow' dealbreakers in a relationship?

jeanjolie

What deal-breakers do you have before you began any romantic relationship or even friendship that most people would consider shallow?

He's obviously a raving psychopath. I'd confidently predict he's going to murder you all in your sleep any day now. Probably with an axe. Or possibly a hammer.

I am clearly living on the edge :P

What's the deal with white socks ?

I only have white socks & never wear any colour other than white. How is this a major deal breaker ??

What tension do you like to put in your shoelaces (this is important).

Because dressing like Michael Jackson in the 80's isnt a good look?

You need dark socks for wear with most things, white is really only acceptable in a sporty context.

Or persist with the white socks and take the judgement

Sounds like something you'll read in any standard PUA handbook. "Women love bad boys. Neg the shizzle out of that biatch and be the most alpha man in the room and she'll be yours on a plate".

Meanwhile in the real world being a decent person who considers others and isn't afraid to express who he is will attract fellow decent people who consider others, many of whom will be beautiful.

As long as your laces aren't too tight.

On that note, blue suit and brown shoes. Copying Conor McGregor's outfits exactly isn't the same thing as having a sense of style. Every ****ing graduation, wedding, work party I've been to in the past year there's a sea of them, it's the new check shirt and boot cut jeans at this point

Ha, this is very true. Himself bought a nice blue suit a few years ago, just before they really took hold. He won't wear it now because he doesn't want to be (as he puts it) a "blue suit flute" like everyone else.

I never got the blue suit/brown shoes fascination at all, or the slim fitting suits, they just never looked good on a man IMO.

The blue suit brown shoes look is a great look.

It's just over saturated at the moment.

I wonder if people would buy them if there was no such thing as '''in fashion''.

The blue suit brown shoes slicked back hair and beard is like a uniform at some events.

Ha, my husband too

He bought it years ago for a wedding and the only other guy (at a wedding of 250 guests) wearing the same was the groom! We joked he looked like the stunt double.

I have a brown suit with blue shoes.

I hope your influence over the ladies works better in real life than it appears to be working here!

The 80's equivalent was slip on shoes with white socks...

Slim fitting suit must be on a very slim 5'9"+ under 40.

With extremely narrow grey tie and pink or baby blue jacket. And, it goes without saying, a mullet.

Your welcome.
Sitting in my car in a busy town centre on a hot afternoon waiting for my mother to do her business and noticing lots of both sexes who could benefit from a kind person telling them that short shorts and a wife beater/spaghetti strap t shirt is only fetching when your 50+ if you've REALLY REALLY taken good care of yourself.

What about a donkey jacket? Were they popular? I found one that had been left behind by the previous owners, in the attic of my house.

The only people I ever saw wearing donkey jackets were council workers and whatever it was we called goths back in the 80's.

I've seen them on ''Only fools and horses''. I googled and was surprised to see they're made by Doctor Martens. In the '80s surely they were punks?

I wonder why they have the shiny sections on the shoulders. Maybe the shoulders get dirtier or would have got dirtier back when workers probably lifted things instead of using ramps like they do now. I'm thinking of things like bin lorries.

No punks were a different breed altogether. Cureheads and the like wore them iirc. The shiny section on the shoulder was for resting your shovel on when you were walking with it

I haven't heard the term "Donkey jacket" in years, lol. My mate used to get them for free from Dublin Bus! I immediately think of Auf Wiedersehen Pet for some reason.

Someone mentioned it above, but the brown shoes with suits has been annoying me lately, go back to black lads.

Tattoos, piercings (exception being earrings), crazy hair colours... not for me thanks.

More significant issues would be constant drama, vacuous, unable to express themselves, or any drug use. No deal.

Oh, Oz had one. I watched the entire series on Youtube before they took all of the series down. It never seemed to be a shallow dealbreaker for women in his case.
