Somehow I doubt it. Life is too short to date somebody because you pity them rather than actually liking them. Women will not waste precious Saturday nights on a man they have no interest in but do feel sorry for. They might go out on one date as a favor to a friend or relative who set the date up (a blind date courtesy), but that has nothing to do with you and everything to do with their relationship with whoever set up the date.

So if somebody is dating you, they like you.


Or they could easily just use you as a stopgap until someone 'better' or more 'suitable' is intrested in them. Especially if your involved in something long distance. I know this as I've been a victim of it.

Everything I stand for is a deal breaker to everyone else. You saw the other threads. They were ruling me out because of my religious and political beliefs. So if someone does want a relationship with me, they are probably not thinking "This is the guy of my dreams", but rather, "Oh boy, attention from the opposite sex."

The potential love of your life could be a cigarette smoker or a dog lover (examples from this thread) yet you'd bypass the oppotunity for something so trivial.

Sheesh. some people on here really don't do themselves any favours.


+1, I've been thinking that myself for a while now reading through this, there are some pretty damn petty things listed here as dealbreakers, which is fine I guess if people enjoy auto-podiac target practice...

1: People that worship money.
2: Acting like an agressive and controlling butt hole, even yelling or hitting to feel like a winner of a stupid argument.
3: People who whine about their date to people, despite the fact that they keep dateing them anyway.
4: Bigots, and haters.
5: Dates that can't make up their mind whether they want us or not. (I'm really tired of it.)

So the rules are simple:

1. Don't be fake.
2. Don't be conservative.

When I talk about settling, I refer to people who would rather stay in relationships with drug addicts, alcoholics, and people who physically and emotionally abuse them, than hold out and be single for a while until a respectful, decent person comes along.

I would never do those things, but I feel that since I can't be lumped perfectly into some sort of clique, or because I don't have the "right" religious or political views, or because I don't make enough money or look like a movie star, that I am the type of person that one would date as a last resort.

I feel that since I don't make enough money, my romantic prospects are the same as those for a drug addict, alcoholic, or wife-beater.

ummm lets see... how can I do this without seeming angry or irrational...
If anyone disagrees please, just tell me and explain,

1. Taken - Definate no no. it only causes problems,

2. Cheating - god, it hurts if people say that they have been cheating on me... especially when they are so open about it. I don't do it and so I expect the same back.
(1st relationship... she started dating an online guy that believed that he was some sort of weird "dog like alien" that didn't give BS about anyone and would give out death threats to all guys that was near her... AND bragging about it... alarm bells anyone?)

3. Being obsessive about my AS - :lol: trust me, it's a tough world out there, I'd just rather have a gentle nudge now and again to make sure I am on the straight and narrow and not the "oh you have AS, I'll protect you from every person that suspects that you have AS".
Let me deal with my problems, they have a problem with me they should take it up on me: That's what I say - I know I would have a few choice words with then about giving people a "fair chance" in life.

4. Keep saying that I have to do a "non-AS effort" - seriously, I try my best to be the best, it's not my fault that I mess things up from time to time... :(

If she says things like "I want to wait until I'm married" or "I will NOT do so-and-so sexual position, because my religion forbids it), my answer to her will be "Bye-Bye!"

You left out the fact that you want unsafe sex. Good luck with that.

I'm assuming then that another dealbreaker for you is that the partner has an STD, right? Otherwise you're bound to catch something.

Um, reality check, if you dont USE something, you're likely to be the one with the STD. And not using anything is a dealbreaker for nearly every woman I know.
