    hmm... could probably list more than 5 so mine are definitely in no order and are not my top 5
    1. Guys who don't look after themselves (health,includes all in appearance; skin, teeth, hair, BO - nothing worse than a waft of sweat from not using deodorant, being lazy, not looking after their body etc)

    2. Rude guys - bad manners, rarely say please or thank you, don't return calls/texts/emails, don't listen to you when you talk, chew with mouth open/eat loudly

    3. Sneaky,sly guys - i hate people who sneak around & keep things from you anyway but I just can't tolerate it in a guy, i've been f*cked around too many times & i can't stand it, find it hard to trust people otherwise. Like when you're in a relationship & a guy doesn't kind of discuss a plan they have with you that could potentially cause alot of prob in your relationship - like f€cking off to thailand for 6 weeks with very little notice

    4. Attention Seeking - I don't like the type of guy who has to be the centre of attention on a night out or in a group, has to be the one to get in the slaggings about someone else or that compete against everyone elses jokes (applies for girls too actually). i'm not one for liking loud or immature guys, my ex was that person and since then i just can't stand it especially when they're just an idiot. i'm not saying i like quiet guys but just not over bearing ones, i'm not good in situations with loud people.


    5. Guys who make you feel small & stupid & like you're always the bad one - that's how it was with my ex, i was always wrong, not him, when he cheated on me it was my fault usually, always argued my opinions in conversations in front of people & when we were alone making me feel very stupid (it's MY opinion!!!!) and by not noticing me and not paying attention i used to feel very small, insecure & bad about myself that my confidence was low :(

    [/LIST]



    Ooops, a bit of an extensive list...uh oh!! stupid boys!!:p
    hmm.. maybe they would be my top 5, ek!

    1.lack of personal hygiene
    2.stinginess
    3.bad dress sense
    4.no sense of humour
    5.arrogant/cocky/ loud mouthed


  • Registered Users Posts: 679 ✭✭✭undecided


    I think to worst has got to be men that can't handle their drink but yet gulp it down like there is going to be a drought!

    then..

    bad hygiene

    cockiness/superior sex

    basic manners(I think their are alot of men that just dont have any!)

    I could go on and on ...:D

    I hope you don't mean that!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,325 ✭✭✭Eviledna


    1. Disloyalty (I dont expect it in a friend, and despise it in a man)
    2. Vanity/Physical Arrogance (If he knows he's hot, he isn't)
    3. Sheer Unadulterated Stupidity (A man's brain is very attractive when used)
    4. A Lack of Humility, the belief that they are more important than others
    (If Mammy put him beside himself, he can stay there.)
    5. Bad teeth/smelly/too skinny/too muscle-y/skinhead hair/body fascism
    (Isn't it always the Number 2's that are like that?:rolleyes: )

    1. No sense of humour
    2. Stupidity
    3. Selfishness
    4. Bad kisser
    5. Dirty Nails, yellow teeth and red gums (they're not really qualities so I thought I'd get away with three!)


    Hello...someone looking for me? :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 128 ✭✭smurfbaby


    1. Know it alls, and guys who takes themselves way too seriously
    2. Insecurity
    3. No sense of humour
    4. Poor personal hygiene-ew!
    5. Stinginess, although I think this is unattractive in either sex

    Actually all of mine refer to either sex, in that I wouldn't like those qualities in a friend or a boyfriend!

    I don't get the replies about bad dressers, lads lads, slightly dim etc. Fair enough these might put you off a potential life partner, but surely they are not the least attractive things about men in general? Like surely it's possible to be a bad dresser but have a wicked sense of humour, or to be a bit vain but have a heart of gold? Although I suppose it's a personal thing.

    Spitting!!!

    I hate it and theres nothing worse than seeing a nice lookin lad hacking up the contents of his throat and then disposing of it about 2 yards from where you are standin! Gross!!

    • Borderline Arrogance – like confidence and a little cockiness
    • Rudeness / Superiority complex – to waiting staff etc. as somebody mentioned
    • Lack of tolerance / close mindedness
    • Insecurity / possessiveness
    • Stinginess – knows the cost of everything
    • Bad dresser – can be fixed though ;)
    • Inconsiderateness / insensitivity
    • Obnoxious know it alls

    I can only go on observation, but I believe it would go something like this.
    1. Not being able to read my mind.
    2. Being able to recall most arguments seem to come in a cyclical pattern. Reminds me of a film I saw with zombies. What was that name again? Now I remember. It was 28 days later. :rolleyes:
    3. Does not know that "fine" can mean dozens of things from "If you don't know I'm not telling you", to the classic "fine".
    4. Being logical most of the time. Ooh they hate that.
    5. Watching TV / playing xbox after checking to see that no assistance was required with washing up / hoovering / etc.
    Note: Pinch of salt may be required. If Mrs MarkR subscribes today I mean this of course about all other women.

    14. Guys who come up to you in a pub and say something along the lines of "Smile! It might never happen" or comment that you look very serious. In fact this annoys me no matter who says it. No one has a smile plastered on their face 24/7.

    You can have it everyway, you want a guy that can make an effort and has some sense of humor.

    But when he tries a simple non sleazy Ice-Breaker like "Simile, it may never happen" , he the worst in the world.

    Did I say the worst in the world? No.

    I just said that FOR ME, that is a turn-off. I hate when anyone says it,not just men.

    Also, I'm in a relationship so I'm not looking for anyone so it really doesn't apply anyway but I have to say, I don't think that comment exactly illustrates a sense of humour, an ice-breaker it may be, but more irritating than funny.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭mollybird


    i would have to say

    being disrespectful,
    arrogent
    no sense of humour
    selfish
    childish


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,613 ✭✭✭✭Clare Bear


    Stinginess with money
    Guys that put on an act and aren't themselves
    Farting (ahhhhh it is NEVER funny!!!!)
    Too easy going (that couldn't give a shi.te attitude-making you feel like they're not bothered if they're with you or not)
    Talking about their ex girlfriends - I don't want to know how great they were and never will, shut up!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,851 ✭✭✭Glowing


    My worst nightmare in a man:

    -Unreliable/untrustworthy
    -Watches soccer and revolves his social life around it, arrggh!
    -Incompassionate
    -Selfish
    -Lazy

    Turn offs in men:

    Men who are pussy whipped by their current (or previous) other half and so assume that all women are out to make their lives a misery : p

    And, we don't want to hear repeatedly how she was a heinous hose bitch that treated you so very awfully, and that as a result you have some massive issues. Kthxby!

    I like guys who have cordial relations with their exs, not on the phone everyday, but stop for a quick chat when they bump into each other, and he's happy for her when things are going well for her and vice versa.

    What's so offputting about that? They can go out with you, have a laugh, then drive you home!

    Only true if the guy is untrustworthy to begin with, and if that was the case the ex wouldn't be friendly with him either would they? People can part amicably too.

    Will have to correct you there, they were people infected with rage, i know because I was there when it happened and i'm always right.
    Continue with your stupid little woman chat, I'm off for my yearly shower, and the back to my important job.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,967 ✭✭✭Pyr0


    I HATE women who think they can change a man to suit their needs, fair enough if its spitting, bad habits etc but if its clothes style, hair or anything it's going too far.

    Poor manners with either sex is extremely annoying.

    I could write more, but i'm lazy :D
