Obscure Dealbreakers
September 21 2023
I just wanted to raise a topic on obscure deal-breakers.
From online dating (profiles), really strange ones have come up. Maybe people are being quite humorous & tongue in cheek, or dead serious, sometimes it's hard to tell. (Sometimes football team supporters are dead serious).
For serious ones, I was once booted mid conversation after I mentioned my job. At a much later date, I managed a conversation with the same person by accident. I realised who she was after the second time I was instantly cut off for the same answer.
Strange/funny ones I've seen off the top of my head include:
People who don't wet their toothbrush before adding toothpaste.
People who keep chocolate in the fridge.
People who don't have (or do have) pineapple on pizzas.
Also from past conversations, it seems many have deal-breakers related to ex's. For example, they will not date someone who has the same first name, star sign, career, etc as an ex, or perhaps for another reason causing them to deter from any of the above. Or maybe something reminds them of a sibling, or someone else.
Can you name any unusual deal-breakers (serious or not) that you have seen (or have)?

Hmmm, people with no sense of humour.
I once said of a pic of Margo and I, that I'm the one with the beard. Margo shaves hers.
Instant block by them 😅
Being good to chat with. I've had multiple women say, "This is one of the best conversations I've had on RHP, you're so funny." Then block me the next day or two.

My dealbreaker was meeting a lovely and really cool guy at a swingers party. Great conversationalist, same age (we were the youngest at 25), same interests and worldviews, really into me. The only thing is, he super looked like my brother. Mind said “don’t be silly”, body turned to dry ice. Nope, couldn’t go there. Sibling porn not for me 😂😂

I guess, everyone's different, and everyone has their own wierd quirks about them.
Are they enough to be classed as a deal breaker?
For me, hygiene, good teeth, smile, a cute laugh and personality are a must. I need all of these to ensure the chemistry is organic, otherwise it's always going to feel synthesised.
I'll never pursue a gal if she looks like a sibling, fullstop...lol
On the flip side, a gal could have a similar quirk or deal breaker option about me. And that's fair also.

I once knew a lady from here whose dealbreaker was the insistence that I be willing to meet her in a crowded bar in the city.
(And yes, a fair enough requirement for ensuring her safety)
But she backed out when I informed her of MY particular dealbreaker. which was that we had to communicate for the first 5 minutes solely using duck-whistles.
Sigh! Clearly she just wasn’t my type it seems.

Ive had, on numerous occasions when I would have 1on1 playdates, men get pissy when I wouldn't come over and fuck them because I was enjoying my night with Hubby and the kids. Instant "Fuck off douche" and Block.

Bad taste could be a deal breaker. Having only pineapple on pizza perhaps. Pineapple tattoos. Pineapple hats…

I think a most dealbreakers aren’t that. They’re just someone finding a platform to create self-worth. It’s a good thing and creating boundaries is a great way to stand tall but they often disappear in the face of desire.

I once had to break the deal because of incompatible politics, but looking back I regret it... her politics weren't THAT far down the opposite end of the spectrum to me, and in the context of what we were each looking for sexually it just wasn't that important!
Since that time, strangely, I haven't come in contact with someone who's presented the same problem. I tend to find and be found by women with similar political bent, or it just never comes up. But if it happened again, it wouldn't be the same problem it once was (from my point of view anyway, it might still be a total deal-breaker for her!!)

We love swinging and it can be very hard to meet the right couple with a Bi Fem but if your serious and into the scene would you turn a sexy couple down because she had sex with her hubby in the morning and he came inside her ? Thinking about the sexy day’s activities which are about to be played out….Is that a dealbreaker?

The job thing could have been because they were in the same industry, and thought they may have known you, or known of you.
As far as the other reasons for veto, well, just ride with it. A lot of people on here have a lot to lose if things go pear shaped, so if they wish to be super cautious, then good for them.

1.MUST HAVE
Nice teeth / breath.
2. Made up words , especially this one absolutely turns me into the Sahara Desert____Smexy/schmexy (vomit) There are plenty of other words in the English language.
3. Women who get offended when a guy calls them an affectionate alternative name, hun , babe , darling , sweetheart. I don’t understand why this offends so many.
3. Bad general hygiene.RHP User

Any mention of what they don't want in profile description was an instant no from me. I just don't like that energy.

My face is the dealbreaker for most people! And if that isnt it... my personality seals the deal
