They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but there’s so much more to attraction than just physical qualities. You may have the beauty of a goddess, charming everyone with your stunning looks, yet you may still find men running in the opposite direction. Confused? We’ve all heard of specific behaviors that can be total turn-offs, regardless of your spectacular looks.
But guys are immediately put off if you do these 18 things.
Lack of Basic Decency
“I sat on a train, and this gorgeous woman sat down opposite of me. 2 stops later, a lot of people got on the train and had to stand.
She actively ensured her purse took up the entire seat next to her. Instantly the ugliest woman on the entire train for me; have some respect.”
Hypocrisy
“‘I want you to change…but accept me for who I am’ mentality.”
“‘Everything you do wrong is a personality flaw that you need to work on, but everything I do wrong is just my *insert mental disorder* and I can’t help it!’”
Trying To Change You
“I don’t like any of your hobbies, so you can’t have them anymore, but you have to support all of my hobbies and interests.”
“Also, I’m going to eventually leave you after you change for me because you changed, and I’m just not attracted to who you are now.”
Emotional Abuse
“Manipulative/testing behavior or playing games.”
“Hurting others to make yourself feel better is wrong regardless of gender, anxieties, or past traumas.”
Lack of Accountability
“When she blames everyone for her own mistakes.”
“She continues to tell people I stopped being her friend over politics. Anything to continue avoiding any responsibility at all.”
Being Shallow
“Someone I was attracted to said something like, ‘My future husband will have a lakehouse and a boat.’”
“One of her friends responded with, ‘Or maybe you can find the right person and then pursue that dream together!’ And she was just like, ‘nah.'”
Being a Screamer
“When she disagrees with you, she screams at you. No thanks.”
“My mom screams often, so screamers are a big no for me.”
Trying To Make You Jealous
“If you’re trying to make me jealous/think that you could have any guy at any time, congrats, it works, I’m out.”
“I date people who have qualities I like. I assume other people also like those qualities. So obviously, they could be with someone else if they wanted to. No need to prove it.”
“Ya, it doesn’t make me jealous it makes me less interested, lol.”
Rudeness
“Being rude or disrespectful without reason.”
“When I call her out on it, I get the ‘you have to stop being so sensitive.’ How about you just try being nice, it’s not that hard.”
“Having an attitude and not apologizing for it. I get being frustrated and everything. I do it too. But I always go back and apologize and talk it out.”
Lack of Awareness
“Roommate had a girl coming over. She asked if it was okay to bring her kid. Sure, whatever. She comes over. I’m sitting on the couch setting up my new iPad.
The kid comes over and grabs my iPad. I say, ‘Oh hey, I’m transferring stuff to it right now.’ The mom says, ‘That’s fine. Go ahead; you can play with it’ to her kid. Like really??”
Treating Others Badly
“If she treats animals and waiters/service or retail staff badly.”
“‘You can easily judge a person’s character by how they treat those who can do nothing for them’ – Some old-time dude, debatable who exactly first said it.”
Expected Additional Effort
“The ‘you have to work for me’ attitude. Like this a relationship, we both need to be putting in effort.”
Bringing Up Exes
“Constantly talking about an ex, even in a derogatory manner. Let it go.”
“My wife passed away three years ago, and I just can’t imagine putting anyone through being the next person after that. She’s still so much a part of my life that I feel like it would be unfair to make someone suffer through that.”
Bad Hygiene
“This. You may be very surprised just how many people forget to give their parts a good clean.”
Being Fake
“Especially being super nice in person and then talking behind their back all the time with nothing good to say.”
“Like yeah, I’ll talk about a friend if they do something stupid, but it’s usually to their face, and I still like them and say great things about them with it.”
Rude To Hospitality Workers
“The restaurant test. If they’re rude to the waitstaff – nope.”
Entitlement
“Spot on. Run really fast.”
“This is so true as entitlement reaches into so many areas of a relationship from considering divergent viewpoints to intimacy, to finances, to empathetic action, to working as a partner, etc.”
Selfishness
“Using ‘self-love’ as an excuse to be narcissistic.”
“Self-love means taking care of yourself. Basically, treat yourself every once in a while. Not being a jerk.”
