Author and cartoonist Scott Adams once noted that “Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating, and religion.”

And while you can explain lotteries using numbers, and religion using philosophy, dating, relationships, and love in general are tough nuts to crack. But some still do try to explain themselves when it comes to dating, even if their reasoning is petty.

Not too long ago, folks on Reddit shared reasons—petty, yet more or less still rightful or fair enough ones, and sometimes just plain weird—to not date someone. And if you’ve been here long enough, you’ll know we covered a similar thread not too long ago, so you can check that out once you’re done with this one.

So, scroll down to enjoy some of the best and most entertaining responses to the now-viral thread, which garnered over 36,000 upvotes, and be sure to share your petty 'never dating this person' stories in the comment section below.

Not petty - if you can't share a meal with someone because they eat like an animal, it's hard to date them.

Unless you literally have no choice, such as a serious head cold with stuffed sinuses, there is no good excuse for an adult to chew with their mouth open.

If someone has a serious head cold & stuffed sinuses, they have no freakin' business going out on a date. That would be even more of a reason to not date them.

    Here Are 30 Silly Yet Valid Reasons For Refusing To Date Someone As Shared In This Online Group I instantly noped out of an otherwise fine blind date when she ordered apple juice - off menu - at a fancy restaurant. 19-year-old me only knew apple juice as a toddler's drink, and I just couldn't get past it. I'm no longer that petty. But I did make the mistake of mentioning this to my wife once, many years ago. And she now makes a habit of ordering apple juice whenever we're at a fancy restaurant, just to see if I squirm.

    I'm in end stage renal failure and apple juice is one of the few beverages I'm allowed to have. No dairy, no sodas except for ginger ale and only certain brands, no bottled iced teas, no oj, (no phosphorus, no potassium, no bubbles because I had biliopancreatic diversion with a duodenal switch - 4 oz stomach and only 1 meter of small intestine).

    Lol either your wife perhaps isn’t as intelligent as she believes or that you are smarter than you realize. Also intelligent people don’t think that they are that smart because they get that there is vastly much more knowledge out there that they don’t yet know or understand. If someone thinks that they already know everything, you can know that they aren’t that smart.

    I have an honest question (so please don't just downvote bc I don't try to be disrespectful): why do you say that phrase: " thank you for your service"? As an European I've heard this in so many movies and read it in books and I don't get it. And people I asked, don't get it either. I mean it's a profession, correct? Dangerous, yes, but there are many more that are dangerous as well. And one doesn't say "thank you" there. It's got the feel of an expected automatic response somehow. Does that have an origin somewhere? Or is it guilt, bc someone other didn't go to the military, or had to go to the military for lack of choices? I've never even heard this phrase outside the US. I just don't get it. Sorry 🙈

    To me, it’s just banal sentimentality. Sure, we all need affirmations now & then and it helps to have a supportive tribe lifting each other up. The people I’ve met with this decor (a couple of relatives & co-workers) use it as their concept of style and hardly are affirmed by it. Throw pillows that say “Home?” No shot it’s your home. Wall hangings that say “gratitude?” Shouldn’t that be a given?

    The reason this style is so popular is it is how a lot of people feel life should be. Tbh, it's their home, they can decorate however they want. Nothing wrong with positivity.

    Ugh, there are about a billion problems I see with this statement. First, probably 99% of the world population will agree on that statement, so there aren't any really sides opposed to it. Racists don't usually consider themselfs racist and will be honestly offended if called out. Second, racism is an extremely broad term and while some forms of racism are clear as day, some others can definitely be debated. This leads to the next problem. If racism is diverse, the ways to combat it, will be diverse to, which gets really complicated, because some of these ways will disagree, and people end up accusing each other of being racist, because of minor disagreements about what is racist and what is not. If there are to many disagreements about how to achieve social justice, there usually will be some fascist, who will help end this struggle. Basically look at Europe in the 1930s.

    There is a BIG difference between liking a thing, collecting a thing, and finding happiness in sharing that thing with the person you're with. If you enjoy Disney, cool...let's have a fun day at Disneyland. If your house is filled with Disney stuff, you spend all of your money on Disney things, and the vast majority of your personality is just "Disney fan," there is someone better suited for you than I am (this applies to all fandoms - Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, DC, etc etc etc)

    Yep. For me, that actually extends to "collecting". I don't think you're a bad person if you collect stuff as a pursuit, but I am likely not your person. Ok. I have a little problem with it environmentally, but I'm not a perfect global citizen, either. I have friends that collect, and they're great people. It is often part of their fandom, because I'm a geek and have geeky friends. However, it would be an issue for me in a life partner. Have your fandom as long as it's not an obsession, but filling our house with it? No. I fundamentally do not understand the drive to acquire stuff simply to have it, to complete a collection of a thing. I can't devote money, space, time, or energy to that. Some people do, and it gives them satisfaction. It's a pretty common hobby! We're just different that way. However, when you share a life with someone, that collecting is part of it.

    You're gonna kick yourself when you find that 'Expresso' has had enough use that it has been entered into the dictionary and is officially an acceptable word. It's perfecty acceptable anyway. It's to do with the Italian language not really using the letter 'X' and in translation it is substituted. "Excuse" becomes "Scusa", "Express" becomes "Espress". Also, fun fact, the inventor of the Espresso machine, called it the 'Expresso machine'!

Which okay, I get it some people have a 'list' of celebrities they'd leave their S/O over, mostly as a joke. But this was like everyday, just randomly said not related to the conversations we were having at the time, and he meant it. He made sure I understood that if for some god forsaken reason Miranda Lambert walked in through the front door, I was gone.

    If one of my crushes, like for instance George Clooney, came to my door to profess his undying love for me, I can’t say I wouldn’t be sorely tempted to take him up on it, but I still love my husband with a heart and a half. I mean, I am not a tall gorgeous—-younger (I’m about Clooney’s age)—-human rights lawyer, though I have a lot of points in my favor. But would someone who can have his pick of all the beautiful and accomplished women still love me AND all my faults and imperfections? Would he stay with me through menopause? Would he see me through miscarriages? Would he take good care of me when I’m sick or have a cast on my leg? Would he stick around after an argument? Would he still be my cheerleader when I try something and fail? Can someone who basks in the spotlight and love of his fans be content with only one, imperfect person? I don’t know. But my husband has done all that, and that’s what really counts.

He spewed ridiculous "facts" about the pieces and was angry when an associate gently tried to inform him of authentically documented truths. I was able to look past the lack of knowledge about Art History, because who cares, but I couldn't look past him getting angry after the associate was so gentle with their correction. He got so angry, like fists balled up, and telling me that they don't know what they are talking about. Yeah, that'll be a nope for dinner and drinks.

    I used to wear 'fake' glasses in the early 2000s because I wanted to switch up my prescription frames but either optometrists didn't stock what I liked or I couldn't afford them. So I would wear my contacts for the night with my knock off frames, and loved every minute of it. Now I'm lucky enough to have a few frames (my prescription almost never changes so I have built up a few).

    Some people, usually from Asian cultures, wear glasses as a fashion statement. They will buy luxury brand frames with faux lenses just to show off. Other people think wearing glasses makes them look more intelligent. A strange reason to reject someone. Even more, strange is to reject them for not liking vegetables unless you are a judgemental vegetarian or vegan.

    Probably so, so they apparently didn't love the person anyway. I'm imagining a lot of these are things they found out within the first casual date or two and decided it wasn't a fit, as opposed to be being deeply in love with someone but breaking it off for a shallow reason.

    I once had met a guy through friends and had only previously met him directly after he had walked out of his work office with other people. We had also been talking on the phone and texting for a good while, so eventually I invited him to my home to have a meal. I live in a small rented flat. He (without any previous mention) brought his very old very big, very slobbery dog to my flat for our dinner. He sat with the dog on his lap, talking to it in a baby voice and calling it his precious boo boo, did the whole, pet kissing where the dog licked his face and literally their tongues were touching, literally the entire night. Eventually the dog sat on the floor next to us. Every time the dog made a slight movement or any noise at all, he'd interrupt our conversation to immediately ask the dog in concerned baby voice what was wrong. It was such a bizarre experience. No he didn't get a goodnight kiss or any future dates. It creeped me out so much. And this is only the tip of the weirdness.

    I was raised as a fairly sheltered white kid in a very white American suburb. When i was around 20 i went on an okcupid date with a guy named Manuel, and although i had several valid reasons for not pursuing a third date, im ashamed to say that i distinctly recall feeling weird about the prospect of getting into a relationship with a guy named Manuel because it felt weird for me to pronounce his name. Yes, I was THAT sheltered. Akmost 15 years later, after having lived the past 8 years of my life in a South Asian country, and 5 years into a committed relationship with a man from this country whose name as as far from white/western culture as it gets, I cringe so hard at the thought process I had at that time

    No cringe needed. You have grown as a person. Just the fact that you do cringe tells you just how far. Many folks never get anywhere close to that far. You pay yourself on the back for moving past the small minded, narrow view of the world and celebrate your appreciation of the differences of others.

    Some people think they are. We have a Dyson, and it's a good vacuum cleaner, but to me it's a bit overpriced. They do seem to last a long time though, and the one we have is lightweight, easy to use, & really easy to empty out. You should check out the Dyson hair dryer - it's very expensive, but I've read reviews that say it's worth the money.

    I should have said, it doesn't cause them, but it causes sinus problems to be worse in the long run because your body gets dependent on the spray.

    This is similar to constant use of chapstick, & other lip balms. It perpetuates the issue & becomes chronic.

    This is kinda random, but related to Ed Sheeran and the popularity of the song "The Shape of You". Does anyone else get annoyed that the songs on the radio aren't, in your opinion, the best songs from that artist? My whole life has been like that; like that song's fine y'all, but these other songs are so much better, and I've heard them on the radio like one time, if that.

    I like that song? Like it's not one I'd actively listen to, but as far as "mainstream" music (is he mainstream? idk I don't keep up with it) it's not a bad song

    For a VERY short time I dated a man who didn't like anything about me . . . not the way I dressed, the car I drove, where I lived. When he broke off seeing me it was a relief. Wonder why he spoke to me at all . . .

    I dated my second partner because, and precisely and only because, on her dating profile, she said she had baggage and explained it. That lasted over a decade, so ... yeah, be honest out there, people. Let people know what you are damaged about. It's more interesting.

    There can be several reasons. 1 - rotating days on/off work makes it hard to schedule dates. Most nurses in the U.S. work 12 hour shifts, 3 days on, 2 off, 2 days on, 2 off, every two weeks, so it's tough to make plans. 2 - nurses tend to not have filters when talking about illness/disease/injury, meaning you might get some pretty gory details about their day at the job. 3 - yeah, being tired a lot from working 12 hour shifts 2-3 days in a row could be a good reason, at least here in the U.S.

    I can understand this - we all have our reasons to avoid professions. I'll get downvoted to hell for this but I will not date anyone who is in (or has been in) the military. My dad was a veteran, he warned me about dating military guys, I ignored him and regretted doing so (twice.) I also won't date anyone in law enforcement but that's mostly based on statistics since 40% of them abuse their partners/spouses.

    Military, no way. You're always alone and hope he comes back alive. Police, nope. Not that police in Holland is abusive, as far as I know, but I talked to a really friendly guy on a dating app and then he sent a pic and he looked so severe and he said he was a police officer. Nope. Scary. They barked at me when I was 16 that I was on a bike path w my moped. No police.

    Helping people as a career is honorable & needed [It's gory, that's why there's a nurse shortage in U.S. & other countries]. Every profession contains a few pedantic people [teachers]~~but once you tell them, "I know that," they'll stop telling you how to do things. A lot of them had "helping" parents, i.e., allowing them to lean on them & not becoming independent. So they grow up telling others what to do, how to do it, when, where, for how long. They'll get mature when they find out no one wants to be around them for too long. Try again, everyone's different.
