I’m all for giving others the benefit of the doubt—being understanding, forgiving the occasional misstep, and letting things slide when possible. After all, none of us are perfect, and if I can show a little kindness in this cruel world, I’ll gladly try.

That said, there’s a definite limit to how far any judgment-free zone can stretch. 

These Redditors know exactly what I mean. Recently, they shared the things people do that instantly make them unattractive, and honestly, they’ve made some pretty solid points. Scroll down to see their takes, and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!

People who are cruel to animals and just nasty cowards who pick on things that are smaller than they are to make themselves look big and hard.

I was on the bus with this guy who was watching videos on his phone at full volume, and got incredibly annoyed. Then, whew, I got off the bus... and ended up sharing the bus stop with a second person watching videos on their phone at full volume. I'm currently under arrest on suspicion of murder, but I'm pretty sure it'll be ruled justifiable homicide.

Even if you can't see the disability, doesn't mean someone isn't. So just treat everyone with respect

If someone treats their spouse like c**p I don't blame them for going and getting some positive attention elsewhere. Yes I know, not a popular opinion.

Hi, it's me, the most interesting person ever. Aren't you lucky you met me? Now, let me just tell you all about my trip to the supermarket today. I needed to buy some milk. I actually did think about being naughty and getting strawberry flavoured milk instead of regular milk but I talked myself out of it by noting that it was twice as expensive. So I grabbed the regular milk which was hard to get to because there were only a few bottles left and they were pushed waaay up to the back of the shelf. But then - get this - just as I was on my way out I decided on a mad impulse to also buy some frozen chicken tenders. I had to choose between Southern style, chilli and garlic 'n' herb but I picked Southern. Then at the checkout - this is where it gets really crazy-

30 Unattractive Things That People Wish Others Would Stop Doing The least attractive thing someone can do is treat others with disrespect or disregard their feelings. No matter how charming someone may seem, when they show a lack of empathy, it completely diminishes their appeal.

Also, when people look at you strangely for caring or getting angry for showing concern for others.

I meet so many people like this. They say they're successful because of all the wonderful things they did and everyone who can't do what they did is a loser. They have a complete lack of empathy for people who can't achieve what they did, even if how they got what they have is because of luck, parents, or family money. They always claim they "worked hard" for what they have and everyone who isn't in the same financial bracket as them is lazy and unworthy. Their attitude is they've got theirs and to hell with anyone else. They're almost always Trump supporters, too.

I agree, smoking is a deal breaker for me. However, my cousin smokes and I was complaining about it to my sister who brought me back to reality really quick. She said something along the lines of we all have our vices. I, for example, eat too much sweets. It's not "healthier" than smoking it's just more socially acceptable. So I remember that every time I get irritated with smokers. Unless you're smoking in my home, in a no-smoking area, or purposely blowing smoke on me (unless I've been a Karen and lectured you about it lol!), then what you do is your choice!

It really gets tiresome. If someone is almost exclusively negative about things and can't find the bright side of things, it just sucks energy. Am not talking about someone depressed who is seeking to recover, but people who just seem to exist in a miserable state.

When I was growing up my mother was like this. Everything I did and everything I liked was met with negativity and criticism. I felt like I was on trial all the time. Over time it really grinds you down, especially when all you're doing is trying to please them.
