'His phone background was himself...': 21 'pettiest' reasons why women won't date somebody

If you're dating but keep the thermostat under 70 degrees, have a peanut allergy, or are even just named Dave, then you're going to want to read this. Women have come in the hundreds to share their "pettiest" dating don'ts and, boy, do they get petty! The line between preference and shallowness is blurred here, but that tends to happen in the dating world. Once you have dated a couple of red flag guys whose names started with J, now any guy whose name starts with J is an instant swipe left for you. We can't help it, we are creatures who are easily trained. Sure, we know not to generalize and it can't possibly be true that EVERY guy with a J-name is going to treat you poorly in a relationship, but now that you have spotted the common denominator in your reasoning why your dating has been unsuccessful… Well, it's going to be kind of hard to quiet the little voice in the back of your mind saying, "Oh no, girl, not a James… Haven't you learned??" But don't worry, you're not alone. See what other petty reasons women pass on a date.
