Of course, it goes without saying that if we have an idea of all the attributes that special person should have, we also have some pretty clear thoughts on some traits they shouldn't possess. Basically, we have a number of deal breakers that can cause us to walk away from a potential mate.
Clearly, deal breakers come in a variety of flavors. What may be a deal breaker for you may not be an issue for someone else. (One man's meat is another man's poison, as they say.) For example, one guy may think girls with hairy legs are gross, while another may think it's natural and have no problem with it.
Women usually have a slate of deal breakers with respect to men they may potentially date. One example might be a guy who is a rabid sports fan; this might be a dealbreaker because the man might put more exphasis on sports or a particular team than the relationship. (And putting anything ahead of your relationship with a woman is not good guys.) Or he might be a little too close to his mother (e.g., they have dinner together every night.)
On the flip side, guys also have their deal breakers when it comes to dating girls. By way of example, many guys don't date women who they find to be too masculine - such as female bodybuilders. (In fact, I might venture to say that most guys don't like masculine women.) Or they might find it a turn-off if the girl has a volatile temper.
In retrospect, almost everyone has a dealbreaker of some sort, and many of them stem from [often humorous] experiences in the past. However, these are the kinds of things that help us firm up our decisions in terms of what we want when dating the opposite sex.
