Forums _ Girls' Locker _ Major Turnoffs, Version 2

Posted by: Synesthesia Mar 9 2008, 02:50 PM

Which of these traits would turn you off the most if a guy had them?

For me, it'd be having too large of an ego or him trying to be someone he's not. A guy should sometimes be modest and always be genuine.

Posted by: MissHygienic Mar 9 2008, 02:58 PM

Definitely bad hygiene. Mainly because if he stunk or smelled of goat ass, why would I want to be close to him, ever? That'd be the first thing to turn me off, anyway.

Boring guys really turn me off, so I'm not sure how I would feel about having a guy who's "too talkative." I would have to say that gossipy guys come next. I rarely gossip. I say things to others that I have already said to the person I'm talking about. I need a man in the relationship; not some faggy-gossipy guy-girl.

trying to be something hes not
arrogant, conceited
body odor
and
being self centered.

body odor also includes over abusing the power of axe.

LYING. i hate pathological liars :(.

If my feelings got crushed by someone or something
Or I'm feeling really upset about something
- insert terrible something and reason for me to be upset -
Then I'm supposed to be able to run to my boyfriend, bury my face in his shoulder, and cry. Or, I'd hope so. If he just looks at me and goes "psh. suck it up and stop crying." I'm pretty sure I'd hate him for life.

Girls are emotional. (most. I'm not saying we all are). I need somebody who, even if he doesn't understand, will be slightly sympathetic.

This works in reverse, too. If I'm happy, and he's in a bad mood, he is not allowed to tell me to shut up or go somewhere else.

insensitivity. Bleh.

a too talkative one is terribly annoying and being impolite is a definite no.

Posted by: rejakalu Mar 23 2008, 03:29 AM

Yeah. Honestly. Bad hygiene. I just can never get past that.

Posted by: etenoir Mar 23 2008, 09:55 PM

pusillanimity
cowardice
gutlessness

Posted by: ms-jojo Mar 23 2008, 10:01 PM

I'll have to say that smoking is a major turn-off.

Posted by: yrrnotelekktric Mar 24 2008, 12:36 AM

A little bit of all of those. wink.gif

Posted by: xquizit Mar 24 2008, 12:51 AM

all of the above.


other turn offs:
being shallow
being close-minded/unwilling to try or learn new things
being crass and boorish
lack of intelligence
lack of ambition/passion

Posted by: heartquasm Mar 24 2008, 08:00 AM

When you're busy watching trashy TV like reruns of "Rock of Love" and he suddenly bursts in on you and changes the channel to ESPN or, even worse, turns on the gamecube and starts playing Smash without even asking if you're ok with it and when you complain and try to kill him, he just laughs and keeps playing/watching his game/sport.

Is there a term for this? Tv-hoggishness? Domineering? Inconsiderate asshoggery?


... maybe its a personal issue.

Posted by: carolannexbh Mar 24 2008, 09:27 AM

Cockiness. No sense of humor. a-hole to girls around his friends.
There actually aren't that many for me. Just these three main ones.

Posted by: mizzkewl06 Mar 25 2008, 07:49 PM

guys who have no respect. & when guys try to talk to you they say stuff like "ey' girl" or "pssst"

Posted by: DeviantShadows Mar 25 2008, 10:28 PM

I think having bad hygiene is definitely the worst.

Amen! You summed up what I wanted to say, pretty much. My boyfriend does this sometimes and it pisses the hell out of me. He calls it being blunt when he talks to me after I've gotten my feelings hurt. Psh.

- Smoking.
- Insensitivity.
- Anger/temper issues.
- Hanging up on the phone with me when he's mad.
- Horniness (Some girls like it, but too much of it is just... eh.)
- Not treating me with the respect I deserve as a woman.
- Lying
- Hiding things from you, mad turnoff.

COCKINESS

ugh.
just, ugh.

Posted by: aaayotiffany Apr 8 2008, 08:20 PM

i hate guys who are too cocky, but i also hate guys that are too pussy to do anything.
stupidity also pisses me off.
bad/yellow teeth.
fake.
unorganized.
dependent on mommy and daddy.

Posted by: wildncrazyath3rt Apr 8 2008, 09:13 PM

being self centerd is a big thing for me.. i mean my ex. was sort of like that and we went through a lot of things and i relized some of it was bc of him and him only. but i mean its a big pet peeve now.. and it just gets on my nerves. i would of voted for bad breath but i cant vote twice. :p

Posted by: BunkyWhiteGirl Apr 12 2008, 10:00 AM

I don't like guys that are uncircumcised. I know that's not a trait but I don't like it.

Posted by: Flaunted Apr 12 2008, 11:57 AM

Guys who:
Lie to me
Hide things from me
Hygiene
insensitivity
No sense of humor
doesn't know how to keep a conversation
Doesn't know when to shut up
immature are the wrong times
Fake, I want someone who's genuine to themselves and me.

Posted by: aimeesayswhat Apr 19 2008, 03:47 PM

-BAD ODER! : "eww"
-Negative about life:"So cut my wrists and black my eyes!" scary much
-High ego:"Shut up...your not all that"
-Anti-social: since I'm not
-Horrible personality


Posted by: Glamourouz Apr 19 2008, 03:58 PM

All of the above on the poll...but I also can't deal with immature people, like this one guy always called me mama & I started feeling like it because I was always telling him about how he should be courteous to my roommates & other things that he should've known from good home training...plus he was just too cocky for me; but he's a track star from Miami so what was I thinking in the first place...

Posted by: megustanloshuevos Apr 19 2008, 05:07 PM

i hate sexism/male chauvinism. also, i hate guys who think they're the shit when they're really just shit. arrogance/cockiness is also a huge turn off. bad hygiene sucks too, but at least you can fix that...

Posted by: Tweeti Apr 20 2008, 08:31 AM

All of those things turn me off, but if he smells and looks like shit, i wouldn't even attempt to talk to him... but i'm married now so i don't have that issue anymore :)

Posted by: xCutUpAngelxxx Apr 20 2008, 01:44 PM

I hate bad hygiene (spell check) and insecurity the most. Smells turn me off completely && if a guy can't, like, stick up for himself, how's he going to stick up for me?

Posted by: angelaaa92 May 16 2008, 04:51 PM

i hate all of those traits! but what i hate the most are when guys think they're like the coolest things ever/awesomely badass. i find that so annoying!

Posted by: Katalyzt May 16 2008, 05:23 PM

Girls Who:
-Take all of my money
-Whine if they don't get what they want
-Shop Too Much
-Are egocentric
-are pessimistic
- are idiots

Posted by: gordita May 16 2008, 05:42 PM

geez i wish i could vote for all of them!!!

but i'd have to say that not caring about my feelings is the worst

Posted by: TheFegNut May 17 2008, 11:18 PM

Too Talkable.

Big turn off. I don't like people who talk to such great extents.

The too-talkables piss me off. They're usually arrogant and/or stubborn. I've got nothing to say to them x_o.

Posted by: Joss-eh-lime May 31 2008, 06:58 PM

i really dont have any guy friends who have hygiene problems, so i voted arrogance.

i can deal with some faults guys have, but i HATE when they feel they are better than everyone else, and act in a way that makes others feel stupid.

Out of the whole list, I probably can't take bad breath. pinch.gif

Posted by: synkro Jun 9 2008, 06:46 PM

bad hygiene can be fixed; personality most likely can not. i can't stand when a person is impolite.

Posted by: Vyrrei Jun 10 2008, 01:33 PM

Douchebaggery is a huge turn-off.

Posted by: BrokenDream Jun 10 2008, 02:49 PM

Haha. What Kay-'s list says is amusing. tongue.gif

Anyway, basically all of the above.

I HATE it when a guy doesn't so any consideration.
If he's like a horndog ALL the time. Ew.
If he acts like I'm invisible or acts differently around me when he's with his friends. That's annoying.
If he pays no attention to me.
If he's waaaayyy too immature.
Really bad acne. Sorry but...I can't stand that. It's like when you kiss it's just...gross.
Too obese. I mean, sure, the boy doesn't have to be SLIM, like PERFECT, but not too obese. :/
Not too skinny either... that's probably worse.

Ehh. The list probably goes further then this.

Big ego i must say.
near the beging of the school year i had a crush on this guy who was my friend.
Middle of the year i saw his "true colours" which was his oversized ego.
Just today he was like "Girls find me on myspace and either think im hot or cute with my picture"
I told him to go play in traffic.

Posted by: babygirl10 Aug 5 2008, 03:41 PM


I hate it when guys lie. It makes me feel like they can't be trusted and I begin to gueston everthing the guy ever said. I begin to wonder about his motives and how trustworthy he is. i know the truth might hurt; but i'd rather have that or nothing at all then a lie.

Posted by: towntown2 Aug 5 2008, 10:12 PM

I hate it when guys get too clingy or too concerned about me.
I like having my own freedom and space, so when a guy starts to think that I need rescuing and tries to become my hero..that's when I start backing away.

Posted by: YukkeKay Sep 22 2008, 10:10 PM

bad hygiene, someone who wants to be up your ass all the time, people who do drugs and boys who wear their pants half-way down their legs.

Posted by: prettylicious026 Nov 23 2010, 07:14 AM

for me the major turn off of guys having bad breath and bad odor! i hate it specially when i smell them iiiwww!!! pinch.gif
