Dating deal breakers

<p>

@fizix2

1. misapplies the transitive property, thinks P => Q means not P => not Q, etc
2. doesn’t listen. cannot hold a conversation in which anything is actually communicated
3. entire self-esteem is based on intelligence, despite (1)
4. lies about silly things to impress me
5. talks about moving across the country to be with me two weeks into the relationship

Ditto!
Also, however stoic he or she is, I need to be hugged.</p>

[haikumarukuchan]

<p>hugs are good</p>

<p>fun, and keep u warm!</p>

<p>I am going to put it out there, that there is nothing better than having a random super deep conversation with a complete stranger. A couple months ago I met these two people and sat outside a party and talked with them for at least 1.5 to 2 hours. It was amazing.</p>

<p>Saying " **** me now" isn’t that surprising. If I wanted to hear dialogue from cheap pornography, I don’t need to leave my house. It doesn’t need to be sexual. A great mixture of clever and sassy would be better, I don’t want to be thinking about how many guys she has said that to before.</p>

[CCC88]

<p>I smoke cigarettes when I drink. I smoke cigars. I view porn regularly. I shower everyday. I brush my teeth 4 times a day. </p>

<p>Ladies?</p>

<p>this reminds me of the best craigslist ever: [best</a> of craigslist : SWF who isn’t asking too much](<a href=“http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/nyc/835057632.html]best”>best of craigslist: SWF who isn't asking too much)</p>

<p>

I am a single, free-spirted, web-savvy thirtysomething female. Living in the gorgeous Caroll Gardens for the past year, I love life and am only looking for a man who is not an idiotic pig-headed beer-swilling moron (which seems to be hard to find in this city). This is my final plea to the Craigslist community. I own my own internet business which means I don’t get to leave the house much, but I do know the internet and its dating potential. So far it has let me down every single time.</p>

<p>I’ve done MySpace, Facebook, Match.Com, eHarmony, and even Jdate (I’m not Jewish and don’t care about Israel). Don’t get me started on Jdate. But with so many people out there, at least ONE guy can match this. I know he’s out there. My standards are exacting, but they’re not too much to ask. Life is too short to compromise yourself!
Here is what I am looking for. It’s not much. If you’re this guy or know this guy, have him contact me right away.</p>

<p>-non smoker</p>

<p>-must love cats and be open to the idea of future adoptions</p>

<p>-must not be more than one to five stops away from Carroll Gardens F train in either direction</p>

<p>-must not be opposed to wicker furniture</p>

<p>-must be 420 friendly</p>

<p>-must clean up hair from the tub after a trim, a ring of hair around the edge is GROSS</p>

<p>-past bar tending/table-serving experience a plus but not necessary</p>

<p>-some knowledge of vintage wine</p>

<p>-must be fluent in 2 languages (English DOES NOT count); I still like to practice my French from study abroad</p>

<p>-toilet paper must go over, NEVER under, when placed in dispenser</p>

<p>-PUT the lid DOWN. Animals have better manners than most men</p>

<p>-no stockbrokers, unemployed musicians, actors, or baristas</p>

<p>-no ravers, goths, punks, or rude boys</p>

<p>-musical taste must include, but not be limited to, Kingston Trip, Buffy Sainte-Marie, and Judy Collins</p>

<p>-name must not begin with an R, a J, or a B (Js are negotiable; Rs are not. Bs should consider that if they treat a cat nicely, it will respond accordingly; but if you scare it by approaching too fast, of course it will attack)</p>

<p>-must like scented candles (not vanilla); no incense</p>

<p>-must be willing to pay for dinner at least once a week at a Zagat-rated restaurant after proper research and scouting of restaurant</p>

<p>-must own more than 3 items from ?The North Face? jacket line but no more than 5</p>

<p>-owning a car is a plus, but it can’t be a hatchback (some standards)</p>

<p>-I ski one weekend a year, so you ski. No shredders.</p>

<p>-must love Gary Larson, and hate Dilbert</p>

<p>-passionate about animal rights, but willing to take in the circus when it comes to town</p>

<p>-must read at least 3 books a month, no comics unless Gary Larson</p>

<p>-must have read complete works of Jane Austen</p>

<p>-must know how to turn a Word document into a PDF</p>

<p>-must be on T-Mobile for Fave 5 access</p>

<p>-must love pinball and not play ping pong</p>

<p>-3 out of your 5 favorite movies should be John Hughes films</p>

<p>-must agree to watch “The Hills” on MTV on Sundays but hate that ***** Heidi, she is everything wrong with womankind</p>

<p>-must know CPR and have current certification, ++ for SCUBA certification</p>

<p>-must be home from 2-6pm on Saturdays to receive packages; bonus points if you’re an Ebay power seller too!</p>

<p>-NO FELONS!!!</p>

<p>-must have all limbs, no quads (not biased, just poor past experience)</p>

<p>-Ivy League education desirable, but Amherst, UPenn, Colgate, Vassar, Georgetown etc. acceptable</p>

<p>-must have Scrabulous installed on Facebook during work hours</p>

<p>-must prefer dark chocolate over milk; no omnivores</p>

<p>-must like North-Eastern microbrews, NO COLORADO, NO EXCEPTIONS</p>

<p>-no corduroy pants, jackets, shirts, socks, caps, etc. And while we’re on the subject of hats, no hats at all. Having a hat as part of your job costume is not an excuse.</p>

<p>I know the guy for me is out there. I’ve come so close to finding him in perfect form so many times. If you are this know or know this guy, PLEASE contact me. I am willing to make a few sacrifices, but not many. If you see yourself in even a FEW of my specifications, you are invited to apply. Think of it more like a guidebook to my heart.</p>

<p>Please reply with a little bit about yourself, include pics.</p>

Hahaha it makes me laugh everytime people don’t know UPenn is an Ivy league school, only because all the Penn kids I know are snooty (and none of my other ivy aquaintances are like this for some reason, just Penn kids).</p>

[LogicWarrior]

<p>-must not think that someone with a B.A. in economics is an economist.</p>

[Euler321]

<p>-must not have ourtrageous demands for my behavior</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>agreed. i totally met my soul mate on spring break in myrtle beach last year…at a CLUB. like, on the dance floor! no joke. </p>

<p>we talked for like an hour at the bar about politics and feminism and journalism and books…unfortunately when he told me about how amazed he was at our “connection” i had to (guiltily) tell him i had a boyfriend, which pretty much broke my heart (and his)…</p>

<p>i still think about him sometimes.</p>

[freshhhh87]

<p>I’m a girl and here’s my list:</p>

<p>1). BAD KISSERS are immediately dinged from my list. bad sexual chemistry from the beginning is a red flag. </p>

<p>2). smokers. I can’t stand smokers and their nasty cig smell. <em>barfs</em>
3). pAArtyers. going out is fine, just don’t over do it.
4). short guys. I’m 5’3 and like my men tall, dark, and handsome.
5). porn is fine. i watch it myself. psshh<—not a dealbreaker, lol
6). no sense of humor. gotta make me laugh!
7). out of shape. I admit that I’m shallow and I don’t like flabby men.
8). extremely hairy. it’s self-explanatory
9). clingyness
10). too much talk about how good he is in the sack, only to be utterly disappointed. talk less, **** more.</p>

[theReach]

<p>I think I’m the only one fooled by recent stoner films. I smoke pot occasionally, and all my girl friends think it’s nasty. Apparently the girls on CC think so too. Can I get an honest opinion why pot or smoking in general is disgusting? It’s odd when everyone loves james franco and seth rogen’s antics but dislikes real stoners.</p>

[leah377]

<p>i always date guys who smoke weed…</p>

<p>however, i need to start dating guys who smoke less of it. haha</p>

[CCC88]

<p>Every girl seems to love Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp and other celebrity smokers. It’s really just a double standard for us normal folk. </p>

<p>Personally, I’m not going to change my behavior to please the whims of a particular girl. Might as well get it over and castrate me while you’re at it. I come as is. This isn’t an a la carte menu.</p>

[dbear]

<p>its usually just cuz guys who do it have no other motivation in life but to get high and that’s not very attractive. however, i know some really smart guys going to ivies and sub ivies like that picky woman put on her required list so i don’t judge all guys like that. personally idc if you do it, just don’t force me to get started on weed if i don’t want to</p>

[chuy]

<p>

Every girl

I think I know your problem and I don’t think it’s that you’re a smoker…</p>

[randomgrandeur]

<p>To be honest, smoking is disgusting to me because I don’t want my apartment smelling an ashtray. Nor, can I imagine kissing someone who just smoked and it being pleasure-filled. </p>

<p>I tend to live a healthy lifestyle and the guy I’m interested in has to as well. It’s not shallow. It’s common sense.</p>

[nyuwishabee]

<p>I dislike guys that completely don’t party and are snobby about it. Like the guy I’m dating right now who would prefer to go to a movie and TGI Friday’s than a party. Gag mee. And I think porn watching is fine or even preferable. At least it means he has an active sex drive.</p>

<p>Other than that, I agree completely with Leah’s list. Especially if they voted for Mccain/Palin. Major dealbreaker.</p>

</p>

<p>The whole point of the characters that Seth Rogen plays is that they’re losers who are to be laughed at. Not many girls want to date guys like that.</p>

<p>People want strong, healthy SOs. SOs who are likely to die in 20 years due to lung cancer < SOs who workout and look good. I personally would find kissing a smoker gross because I find the smell repulsive, and the whole yellow teeth is also a turn-off.</p>

</p>

<p>OMG that’s hawt!!!11!!!1</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>If you’re into prepubescent boys, that’s your prerogative, but real men have hair.</p>
