Somebody who whines about things, except when he's sick. Whining is allowed then.

Somebody who lets himself go to the point of unattractiveness

Somebody who cannot (or will not) protect me if need be (and yeah, usually I protect myself but I like a guy who at least *can*)

Somebody who thinks that any girl who speaks to him is doing him a huge favor.

ETA: Somebody who thinks he's doing any girl he speaks to a huge favor.

Somebody who overanalyzes every single thing to the point of making me want to rip my hair out

Somebody who is scared of his own shadow and so caught up in rules that he won't even walk in the exit door at the grocery store.

Somebody who is scared of everything

Somebody who has never bothered to read a book in his entire life

Somebody who can't have an intelligent conversation about at least one topic

Somebody who I can beat at arm wresteling

Somebody who doesn't know the difference between your and you're. or to, two and too. Or their, there and they're

Somebody afraid of or judgemental toward my extended family and my friends

Somebody who can't change a tire

Somebody who judges people based on how much money they make or what they do for a living

Somebody mean

Somebody who doesn't open doors for ladies

Gosh, I'm super fussy, so my list would be pretty long if I included everything. Here's a few main ones though.

I don't want a man who...

...I can't have an intellectual discussion with
...is superstitious, religious, or has his head in the clouds more often than not
...won't discuss his feelings with me when it's important
...is so money hungry that he isn't interested in following his dreams
...is an extreme extrovert
...refuses to learn or care about my AS traits.

- guys who have become bitter about their romantic failings to the point of having crappy attitudes toward women in genera.
- someone who has a problem with me paying for stuff, especially when I'm the one who invited him out.
- someone who wants a trophy wife/baby machine.
- someone who can't wrap his head around the idea of an egalitarian household.
- someone who is married/in a relationship.
- someone who feels entitled to me/my body etc.
- on that, anyone who doesn't feel I should have control of my reproductive organs.
- men who talk about what men want as if to suggest women should aspire to be that; if a guy doesn't want me, and this may be shocking, I don't want him either. If for a brief moment I do, as soon as I know he's not interested, I move on.

Honestly the list could go on and on.

I am already in a relationship but can shed some light on what I would never want in a man:

:ncool: Someone with an overly inflated sense of entitlement and who feel that a woman should be grateful to be noticed by them
:ncool: Someone who is shallow enough to judge women on their physical appearance as a means of determining what is dateable for them. I am not a woman who has a massively high opinion of myself but I have been told I am attractive and I have been creeped on in the past by men like this.
:ncool: Someone who thinks it is ok to tar all women with the same brush just because he dated and got his fingers burnt by a b***h.
:ncool: Someone who only wants to please himself and is inconsiderate of my feelings
:ncool: Someone who I cannot hold a proper conversation with or who only talks about football and porn
:ncool: Someone who treats me like s**t in front of mates as a way of showing off his 'dominance'
:ncool: Someone who goes on about what they expect from me as a woman and then expects me to bow down to it and that if I don't I am in some way uacceptable

Huh? It's supposed to be the kind of man that I *don't* want.

All the responses here can be summed up by one global sentence:

- Someone who isn't like my ex X or Y or ....

I don't see myself in any of their listings tho, except maybe in a couple of Garnet's points.

Only two of mine were qualities an ex has had.
