A very attractive, fun, smart woman asked me if I wanted to go get ice cream with her. I turned her down but I guess in a way that she felt was flirty, so she kept asking. And finally I had to tell her I was turning her down because she had both my mother's first and last name. She laughed a lot and agreed we couldn't date.

He was wearing a hideous brown fake leather jacket, it was so old that the ‘leather’ had started to flake off and parts were just now canvas. He kept stopping to look at himself in windows and saying ‘oh god I look so hot today’ ‘I just can’t believe how hot I look’ smoothing down his manky jacket, side eyeing me, expecting me to agree with him. I left so he could be alone with his jacket.

She didn't know that foxes were real animals. She thought they were mythical and just in movies.

She was a volunteer at the Zoo and when kids asked her questions she didn’t know the answer to, she would make something up and lie. Growing up on zoobooks and Steve Irwin, I take animal facts very seriously.

He didn’t re-rack his weights. I will never, for the life of me, understand why people don’t return/re-rack their weights.

Went on a first date to the movies. This f@#%!g guy...instead of picking up his drink and lifting the straw to his mouth, he would put his hands on his knees, keeping his eyes on the screen, and lean over to the drink and ‘hunt’ for the straw with his face and his mouth contorted sideways trying to land on the straw. Weirdest s#@t ever.

She kept using the word "Redonkulous" in normal conversation. I felt my soul dying every time I heard it.

She was super hot, but she smelled. I dunno if she didn't shower or use deodorant, but she just smelled funky. I couldn't do it. My best girl friend at the time was like, "just tell her". How do you tell a girl you've known for a few weeks that she smells bad?!?! So I just stopped talking to her. Brilliant.

I went out on a few dates with a guy that I had been really into for months. I was starting to realize he wasnt the brightest bulb in the room. Then one day he said he liked watching commercials on TV and that was that.

Not me, but someone refusing to date me because, “it’s weird you don’t have Instagram.”

My mom stopped dating a guy because he unfastened and refastened the velcro on his shoes throughout an entire movie.

Her complete inability to follow the plot of a movie. “Who’s that?” “Where’d he come from?” “Why’d she do that?” “Who is he again?” I just couldn’t.

I couldn't date a guy because my brother pointed out that he looks EXACTLY like my uncle. I couldn't unsee it because it was absolutely true.

He stared at me blankly when I said the word "republican" when describing one of my family members. I followed up and sure enough, he literally had no idea what the word republican meant and didn't know about our largely two-party system. He was in his late 20's. If you're not into politics, that's one thing, but he had managed to live nearly three decades in our country without knowing basic information about our political system. My brain could not comprehend and I worried about what other basic information he had managed to avoid was. 'Twas a hard no on my end.

Every time I touched her, I would smell of egg. Like holding hands, egg.. Hug her, my shirt would smell of egg. Strangest bit was, she didn't smell like that whatsoever. Also, when I broke it off, the egg smelling stopped. So IDK.

He would call me his "beautiful angle". He really didn't know how to spell angel so for 5 months I put up with being an angle. Also dated a guy who wanted to put a singlewide trailer on his parent's front lawn and thought I was unreasonable for not wanting to move in with him once he did so.

She would insist on a job interview level of formality whenever we talked. Edit: For those asking for examples, the first time I asked her to my place went like this: Me: So do you want to take this back to my place? Her: Is this an invitation for intercourse? Me: ... yes... it is... Her: Please ask again properly please.

He wore a Bluetooth piece in his ear. The constant blue light blinking from the side of his head was too much for me. Another guy would text “dame” instead of “damn”. It wasn’t a typo either, it was every time.

A guy on a dating app said he wouldn’t date me because I didn’t like oysters.

Same name as my ex.
