" At the first sign of weaponised incompetency or laziness , I ’m done . If I want to raise a kid , I would adopt one . "
It’s that time of year where everyone seems to be coupled up for Christmas, and being single during the festive season can certainly leave a bitter taste…
But have no fear, for I have enlisted the help of the BuzzFeed Community and asked them toshare their biggest dating icks:
1.“If they’re flakey and always late.”
2.“Egos and know-it-all’s.”
" You have to be mature enough to agnise there ’s so much you do n’t know , and you ’re not always gon na be the best . People that constantly play like they ’re the overbold or ' best ' person in the way in any given position really bug me . "

3.“When they ask you on the date but leave it to you to decide what to do or where to eat.”
4.“Sexual talk when we barely know each other.”
" Also , making ' yummy ' noises when they eat . "
— veganrumham
5.“Ordering the same thing as me at a restaurant. I don’t mean sometimes, because sometimes we’re going to genuinely want the same thing, I mean when it’s EVERY TIME.”
6.“Flaunting and flashing money, ICK.”
" Also , promise themselves or anyone else alpha , beta , or sigma . "

7.“Constantly interrupting or forgetting very basic things about my life.”
" Both of those show that you just are n’t interested in anything I have to say . "

8.“At the first sign of weaponised incompetence or laziness, I’m done. If I wanted to raise a child, I would adopt one.”
9.“Making plans and then they vanish into the ether, only to return four months later.”
" I do not miss that at all . "

10.“Always trying to one up me.”
" If I tell her about a time I did something well , she ’d tell me when she did something well . If I mention a prison term I have it off up , she ’d tell she did something much regretful . "
— handsatlanta
11.“If they label their ex as ‘crazy’… They’re not.”
12.“Pet names before we’ve even met in person.”
" If within the first few messages you call me ' babe ' or any loop of that , it ’s a no . You do n’t know me like that bro , stop . "

13.“When I tell them I like something, and they immediately go off about how much they hate it or make fun of me for liking it.”
" Same goes for the guys who palpate the need to tell me how much they hate cats when I tell them I have one . It ’s hunky-dory to not like something someone else like , just do n’t be a jerk about it if it ’s something that ’s important to them . "
— daisyneptune
14.“If you have nothing but nasty things to say about all your exes, it tells me two things: 1) it won’t last long, and 2) it’s gonna be a messy breakup.”
" Thanks , but I ’ll pass . "
— jmacxjr
15.“If they in any way indicate that they see pets as anything less than a family member, I’m out.”
16.“I know it sounds shallow, but when they’re a Scorpio.”
" The relationships I ’ve been in with Scorpios have just been the bad ! Whether or not it ’s coincident , I ’m a pass . "
— eviedoggy69
17.“On the other side of the coin, when people take astrology way too seriously.”
" I do n’t mind if you say astrology for sport , but distrusting someone because of their sign or blaming your current mood on Mars being in retrograde or whatever , is too far for me . "
— v_zerda
18.“I have a few and I’m not proud of some of them at all but here goes…”
" minor handwriting , lying about their height ( I genuinely do n’t handle how magniloquent you are , just do n’t lie ) , being rude to wait faculty , crying at spicy food , whispering when there ’s no need to . "
— kikimatharu6
