Don't get us wrong, there are some absolutely terrific reasons people didn't go on a second date, but the weird thing about relationships is that sometimes a person being a completely psychotic mess might not be as big a deal-breaker to some as say, buttering corn on the cob the wrong way. Sure, something as small as liking Disney movies too much could be an indicator of a greater problem, but these people even didn't stick around to find out.

    Font - Band_From_CFB - 3 days ago 2 2 3 S 4 IDK if this counts, but I was already not liking this girl, and she told me that God told her we should break up. I immediately was like well haha don't wanna mess with the big man. She regretted it, tried getting back with me, but I kept sarcastically insisting she shouldn't go against God's will.

    Font - Pentimento_NFT · 3 days ago She smelled... not super strongly necessarily, but she smelled exactly like one of my roommates in college, specifically the kind of B.O. he had in the summer that would linger in the bathroom when he st. I gave her a kiss on the cheek toward the end of our first date, which is when i noticed that faint, but uncanny smell, and i knew that if we ever got intimate all i'd be able to think about was my roommate taking fat dumps

    Font - VivecaD - 3 days ago I was told this was petty but I disagree. When I refused to take public transit every weekend to go see him I knew it wasn't going to work. For the record it would have taken me upwards of 4 hours and 5 buses because of where he lived. It would take him 45 minutes to come get me if he wanted to spend the weekend together. He did not work but had a nice income from the Navy. I was working and wasn't done with work until 6/7 pm. His reason was that he didn't want to put

    Font - MagicJasoni - 3 days ago Not sure if it counts as "dating" because it was our first one, but she was super hardcore into classic animated Disney films and her idea of a fun time was to go home and watch Sleeping Beauty in rapt attention. Another woman I dated for a while was super into the mafia stuff from the 1920s. That was a little more interesting, but it got pretty old, especially when she kept trying to see if I could dress more like 1920s gangsters so she could be the "doll."

    Font - torquemycork · 3 days ago For some reason every time he laughed he would be like super bubbly physically, like throwing his head back in all directions and throwing his arms up everywhere and I was like who the fk laughs like a car bobble head figurine?

    Font - Writeloves · 3 days ago He said I looked like a female Woody Harrelson. Like dude, I may have blue eyes and a big nose but come on. We are on a date. That is not the kind of thing you say to someone you are trying to romance.

    Font - tdasnowman - 3 days ago - edited 3 days ago Voice. Funny girl, smart girl, way way to attractive for me girl. Her voice was in the same register as Janice on friends or Fran Drescher in the nanny. Like daggers in my ears. Could not get over it, after the third date had to back off and tell her I was way to busy right now.

    Font - Additional_Cry_1904 - 3 days ago Well she stopped dating me but it was petty as hell in my opinion. I worked nights, she didn't work at all. Somehow she thought that whenever she was awake that I also must be awake. After months of tirelessly explaining how I physically and mentally could not get lunch with her after I just worked, or how I could not go to a party at midnight with her, she finally said f:k it and left. She just could not comprehend how I could not do those things, in her
