Grab??? Cheers???

No.

We broke up a few weeks after that. He dumped me actually, but... yeah.

That can be my prerequisite -- you don't say you'll "just grab [thing], cheers" (and preferably don't dump me for totally unrelated reasons a few weeks later).

Sounds like you got dumped by someone you already realised you didn't like but that they just did what you couldn't. I've been there.

If she has a long list of prerequisites or deal breakers then she's probably crazy which is a deal breaker.

Seriously though, I find something off about people filling these lists with things that are relatively trivial. You'd want to be awfully picky or obsessive to avoid getting into a relationship with somebody you mostly found attractive and enjoyed because their feet smelled bad or they didn't dress well.

Oh I hate this. I had an ex who used to "grab" stuff too. "I'll just grab a shower." You can't GRAB a shower! He used to "hit" places too. "I'll just grab a shower then hit the pub." That's not why we broke up mind, but it really got on my nerves for some reason.

Anyway in general mine are: MUST have a good sense of humour, and can't be mean. Meanness is definitely something I can't abide.

What's wrong with guitar players?! Is it just cos you want the big arms and you tend to find them on drummers? Like: http://buy-cymbals.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Dave-Grohl-Buy-Cymbals.jpg *wipes drool*

No girls love badboys then you grow up, lick your wounds and realise you want a nice guy afterall. Nice guys might finish last but they take home the prize!

Unless you're after a virgin, then anyone could be considered sloppy seconds. And if you value virginity so highly, I'm sure you've kept a tight hold on yours.

Women don't love assholes.

Some men see themselves as the quintessential "nice guy" and like to announce this alongside a wailing tirade about how women are not responding appropriately to them.

They expected a reward (sex) in exchange for their niceness. In other words, they're not actually "nice" at all. Just regular joes who sometimes don the "nice guy" disguise, and then throw a big sulk when their disguise isn't "working".

Women generally prefer the guys who don't don an act and throw a sulk over it, imo.

absofrigginlutely. you get these guys that think they're nice as pie and believe they deserve the nicest girl in the world, but think they're hard done by because they're too 'nice', when in fact they're not as nice as they like to think / make out they are.
