He kept stopping to look at himself in windows and saying ‘oh god I look so hot today’ ‘I just can’t believe how hot I look’ smoothing down his manky jacket, side eyeing me, expecting me to agree with him.

I left so he could be alone with his jacket.

The bottle was on the table, he could have put some on his own plate, but nope, even after I asked him not to do that, even after I stopped eating and pushed my plate away, he kept sticking his half-eaten fries in my plate and dragging them through my ketchup.

Double-dipping on the first date? definite deal breaker. Scientists have analyzed bacterial growth due to double dipping. They substituted sterilized water for dip. They single-dipped in the first glass; double-dipped in the second. They found significantly higher levels of bacteria (1,000 more per milliliter) in the water after double-dipping had occurred.

Forth lunch date and I took him to a vegan restaurant because I am a vegetarian and wanted some variety to choose from. ( he knew I was a strict vegetarian when we met) He happily agreed to go to the vegan place. He turned into a whinny 5 year old and complained about the menu and refused to order. After the server making numerous suggestions he LOUDLY complained " I can't eat any of this fake meat s**t. It just does not have the taste and texture of the real thing. I need real meat" Every person in this tiny Vegan restaurant turned to us with murder in their eyes. I was incredibly embarrassed but also very hungry. I ordered for myself and told him he could order or not but I was there to eat. I ate my meal while he watched and pouted like a child. As soon as we hit the side walk I dumped him. Pathetically he was shocked and could not understand why.

Several things happened on a first date that were relationship enders: She kept watching through the front windows and out the open front door for something. She stopped several times to go over and look. She said that her most recent ex was still stalking her, and would have a problem with it if he knew I was in her apartment; I noticed that all her furniture was new and matched. She said that the insurance replaced everything after the fire. She said one of her ex-boyfriends had thrown a lit can of gasoline through the bedroom window while she was sleeping. It burned up all her stuff. She said not to worry about it because the guy who did it was still on the run and was never caught. I had to park on the other side of the apartments where a shopping center was. There was a dance club there making lots of loud dance music. She went over to the door and laid hands on the door frame. She spent a couple of minutes praying & casting out the devils. Yeek! TRUE STORIES ALL!!!

I have had a crazy life, but at least I can say it was never boring.

When I was in my late teens, I was friends with a girl named Marie. She was dating a super nice guy that she really seemed to like, but eventually broke up with him. Why? Because his name was Don and she didn't want to be known as "Donny and Marie." So petty, but in retrospect I think he dodged a bullet there.

Met a guy back before the internet, using the newspaper personal ads. We wrote back and forth and then set up a date. He brought a friend for my friend, and we went to a local country bar. First red flag was his complaint that I spent too much time talking to a male bartender. Then, a few drinks in he revealed he had just moved to my Province after getting out of prison in another province. By the end of that first and last date, I caught him and my friend playing tonsil hockey in my kitchen. Yah, that was a nightmare.

I dated a guy who would eat THE WHOLE F-G PIZZA like a sandwich. He literally picked up the whole pizza and just chewed through it. Nope.

I was set up on a blind date by a friend and the girl kept checking out other guys and trying to drag me into it by saying things like "Wow! He has a nice bum!" and "I bet he would look hot naked" so end of the date I said goodnight, no kiss, and didn't set another date up. My friend asked why a few days later and I told her. She said "Really? Now we know why she keeps lucking out with guys" She passed on the message as a friend to friend epiphany. Last I heard she sorted that out and is now married to a wonderful guy and on the wedding day, at the altar, she walked down the aisle and checked out the best man and said in a theatrical voice "He's got a nice bum! I bet he is a right goer!" and threw a thumbs up at him. Luckily everyone knew about her past mistake and it was a running joke now. So glad she finally found someone awesome

I once dated someone for a few months. I knew he wasn't the brightest spark, but I was trying to get back into dating after a long absence. He was out with my whole family at a nice brunch and the topic of birdwatching came up (my father was a fanatic) and papa mentioned seeing woodpeckers. My boyfriend audibly gasped and said he'd never seen one in real life, but that he was kinda scared because they were so big. How big do you think they are, I asked? Six feet tall, he said. (182cm). I was unable to hold on much longer after that.

Guy I knew from church was really a nice person. Friendly and we got along. He wanted to date me but I just couldn't go there. He looked just like Santa and was one of those Mall Santa's for the holidays. No.... just not into getting physical with Santa. Just couldn't.

We were apparently in an open relationship. She had a side gig and I was pretty good friends with him. All until we both realized that she had been pregnant with someone else entirely and neither of the two of us knew. That's a little too much non-information. Haven't spoken to either of them since. Ended up in another open relationship, and suffice it to say it's much healthier, more trusting and communicative. Granted, relationship #1 was also super unhealthy for other reasons to begin with.

Stopped seeing a guy cause everytime he would get in my car he would, without asking, eject my CD from the player and put in his CD with the most horrible sh*t I've ever heard and blast it.

I think he was looking for a reaction from you. Sounds like an aggressive troublemaker.

Why are people downvoting things for being petty on a list of "the pettiest reasons"?

So, if we think the reason is petty enough as not to warrant a breakup, should we down vote, or should we up vote? I guess you can argue either way!
