Anger issues, being self centered( the world revolves around them ) judging me for a belief that is common in everyday society because they don't want to have that belief, uppity, always in everybodies business,

I am generally accepting of most things. But for me smoking is deal breaker, I am hyper sensitive to that. Also scammers, heavy alcoholic drinkers and small age women.

As a 50 something curious to know what the fellows out there consider to be deal breakers?

In my conversations with some men deceptiveness has definitely been an issue and always a deal breaker.

For me smoking is another dealbreaker, not merely a personal choice but health related as I am hyper sensitive to that (not to mention I cannot breathe as well).

I think that I am generally accepting of most things however I also draw the line with someone who requests money (haha, obviously) :laughing::laughing: For example the fella who asked for $2500 so he could pay an attorney fee in order to collect his nearly $300,000. Yes, sure. I wonder how many people these scammers and phonies approach before they find someone weak and vulnerable/trusting enough to do such things. Hmm...




Deception, lies of omission, being married (separated is still married...) ... and if the first question is: "How much money do you make."

The original post asked for one the one deal breaker... and then list a few. I don't know if anyone has just one deal breaker. I have a few.

Different faith
Smoker
Pets in the house (I have sinus issues)
No physical attraction
Still raising children
Wants to have children
Drinks a lot or uses recreational drugs (I'm not 420 friendly)
Politically liberal
Not interested in getting married

I also find it annoying when a woman almost immediately wants to take communications off of this site, but still only wants to text. Then, it usually doesn't take long for them to ask for money. If you don't want to send messages on here, then how about chatting on the phone?

Sorry if I'm ranting a little bit, but I've been at this for a while and all I seem to get is scammers.

In the demographic cohort of men aged 50 and above, certain factors may become particularly salient when evaluating the quality and sustainability of personal or professional relationships. A prominent deal breaker in such contexts often pertains to the absence of mutual respect and integrity. Respect encompasses acknowledging one's inherent dignity and worth, while integrity refers to the adherence to ethical principles and honesty.

As individuals mature, they tend to prioritize relationships that are grounded in these values. The erosion of trust and the presence of deceit can undermine the foundation of any meaningful relationship. Additionally, discrepancies in core values or significant lifestyle differences, which may have been less consequential in earlier years, can become more pronounced and problematic. Consequently, the emphasis on authentic and respectful interactions becomes increasingly crucial as one navigates the complexities of mature relationships.

Your list of deal breakers is quite insightful. I agree that traits such as neediness, controlling behavior, bossiness, dishonesty, abuse, and jealousy can indeed be significant issues in any relationship. Respect, honesty, and a healthy balance of autonomy are crucial for a successful and fulfilling relationship. It’s important to be aware of these traits and strive for mutual respect and trust in our interactions. Thanks for sharing your perspective—it’s a valuable reminder of what we should strive to avoid and cultivate in our relationships.

When she's all about herself, and when she doesn't seem to care. I'd rather have a spit fire who loves others fiercely than a mouse who loves herself fiercely. Trust me, I've had both.

Not being able to be honest about who you really are. I know making a good first impression is important, but I will take you, being you, over imagining who you want to be every time.
