People Share 21 Silly Reasons Why They Wouldn’t Want A Second Date
When it comes to dating, it’s completely natural to have specific criteria and preferences for the person you choose to go out with. Compatibility holds significant value, and individuals often have their own unique set of preferences. However, there are certain dating mistakes that can swiftly bring a relationship to a halt. While some of these blunders may appear insignificant, they can surprisingly influence someone’s decision to pursue a romantic connection.
Blank Stare
One user shared, “He stared at me blankly when I said “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.”
Lug Head
A second user added, “He didn’t re-rack his weights. I will never, for my life, understand why people don’t return/re-rack their weights.”
Animal Facts
A third user said, “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 seriously.”
Dim
This user mentioned, “I went out on a few dates with a guy that I had been really into for months. I was starting to realize he wasn’t the brightest bulb in the room. Then one day, he said he liked watching commercials on TV and that was that.”
Straw Hunt
A poster recalled, “Went on a first date to the movies. This 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 sh****t ever.”
Same Names
“A very attractive, fun, smart woman asked me if I wanted to 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.”
Bad Body Odour
“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 girlfriend 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.”
Mythical Creatures
A top-liked comment said, “She didn’t know that foxes were real animals. She thought they were mythical and just in movies.”
Cats Cradle
One user mentioned, “I went out with someone with the same name as my cat. I brought him back to my house, and the second I got home, I greeted my cat the guy looked at me, and I knew right then and there that I couldn’t do this.”
Weird Angle
This user divulged, “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.”
On His Parent’s Front Lawn
This poster commented, “I dated a guy who wanted to put a single-wide trailer on his parent’s front lawn and thought I was unreasonable for not wanting to move in with him once he did so.”
Hot Hands
“She thought every cup/mug held the same volume of liquid and burned her hand, transferring a beverage that was clearly larger than the intended holder.”
Techie
A commenter posted, “He wore a Bluetooth piece in his ear. The constant blue light blinking from the side of his head was too much for me.”
Dame Typo
A user commented, “This guy I started talking to would text “da****e” instead of “da***n.” It wasn’t a typo, either. It was every time.”
Self Obsessed
This poster recalled, “He would wear this hideous brown fake leather jacket. It was so old that the ‘leather’ had started to flake off. 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.”
Every Text in ALL CAPS
A user shared, “All The Words In Every Text He Sent Were Capitalised. Trust Me, It Got ANNOYING.”
Velcro Shoes
“My mom stopped dating a guy because he unfastened and refastened the velcro on his shoes throughout the movie at the theater!”
A What?
A poster added, “She called someone “a pompous.” Nope, she didn’t say he was acting pompous or that he was a pompous ass. He was a pompous.”
2 X Kim
“Been married twice. Both were named Kim. I don’t even talk to Kim’s now. I am all Kimmed out.”
Underneath It All
One user shared, “Everything was going great, I thought she was an amazing girl, and we’d been seeing each other for two months. Go to her house for the first time, and it was a little messy, but nothing to write home about. Then I go to the bathroom and put up the toilet seat… I don’t think she’d ever cleaned the bottom of the toilet seat, given how disgusting it was. From then on, the only thing I could think about when talking or being with her was that disgusting toilet seat.”
Inflecting
Finally, “They did that thing where they inflect their voice upwards at the end of everything they say as if it were a question after about 10 minutes of talking to them, I was completely done.”
