'Pranks' and games in a relationship are toxic. Always best to end it when someone pulls that s**t. People need to talk about it too, don't let the future generations think it's healthy. Just like 'treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen' or 'they won't respect you if you call the next day' they need to die out.

Some behaviors are subjectively unattractive—we all have our pet peeves. Others, on the other hand, are objectively more likely to push potential partners away. Business Insider reports that among the factors that make you appear less attractive are sleep deprivation, being mean, having contracted body language, and being stressed.

Other things that make someone objectively less attractive include looking stressed, looking too happy or proud (i.e. you may not want to be too ‘smiley’), not having a sense of humor, being lazy, being dishonest, and not being humble enough. People generally also don’t find heavy smoking and drinking attractive. Nor do they enjoy it when someone disagrees with their thoughts on politics.

“If They Like Crystals”: 50 Things That Make Men Lose Interest In A Woman Demand princess treatment but don’t reciprocate anything. Can’t treat you like a queen if you won’t let me be your king.

Edit: for those who can’t see past the metaphor. lol. Entitlement is the turn off. Someone acting entitled to your affection or time or money while offering up little to nothing in return.

On the flip side, BBC Future points out that it’s far from just our physical attractiveness that matters when it comes to romance and first impressions. In fact, someone’s agreeableness, extraversion, and intelligence are ranked higher than looks. Furthermore, a person’s material success ranks among the least important attractive qualities.

Someone who ranks high in agreeableness in the Big Five psychometric tests is generally more caring and compassionate. A person who’s agreeable and also physically attractive is more likely to be the target of someone’s desire for a serious relationship. It makes sense. It’s difficult to envision starting a long-term relationship with someone who is unkind.

I stopped with the kept princess bs 20 years ago. Huge red flag for me. It's nice to be with someone hard working and at least somewhat ambitious. My wife and me leapfrogged each other on earning for the first 10 years of marriage. I'm doing a bit better now but she's no slouch. On top of that she's not scared to get out and help in the yard. Actually it's usually me helping her. Guys completely right. Marry a partner not an ornament.

How similar a person is to us is incredibly important for romance. In short, the basic principle of attraction is looking for potential partners who have some things in common with us, from personality traits and appearance to social groups and geography. When there are complementary traits in play, you make a stronger team that can weather whatever storm life throws at you.

However, it’s not all as simple as that. Some differences in personalities and backgrounds can spark some excitement in the relationship. So, there’s a need for both familiarity and novelty in relationships. Too many similarities can lead to boredom. Too many differences can lead to arguments.

"Most of the answers were about being rude or having a bad personality. It’s nice to know that there are still guys out there who care more about a girl’s personality than her physical appearance,” the author of the thread told us.

We asked the author for their personal opinion on what relationship red flags are best to be avoided.

From their perspective, your alarm bells should be ringing if the person you're dating is unfaithful, rude, or irresponsible.

Storytelling, journalism, and art are a core part of who I am. I've been writing and drawing ever since I could walk—there is nothing else I'd rather do. My formal education, however, is focused on politics, philosophy, and economics because I've always been curious about the gap between the ideal and the real. At work, I'm a Senior Writer and I cover a broad range of topics that I'm passionate about: from psychology and changes in work culture to healthy living, relationships, and design. In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature. However, you can also find me enjoying a big mug of coffee with a good book (or ten) and entertaining friends with fantasy tabletop games and sci-fi movies.

All these comments going " MeN dO iT, tOo." Yeah, maybe. But the question that started this thread was was men think about women. Just go find a thread asking women instead and there you go.

I've got a whole new love for BP for showing both sides. As a man I've also went through a LOT of shít with women, including groping etc. Nice to be acknowledged

With this article coming on the back of one yesterday from the opposite side we now have what women do wrong and what men do wrong, what have we learned? That both genders do exactly the same things!

Most of these items seemed to me to be a signal that she just isn't into you that much.

Ok, if a woman likes astrology, crystals, likes burning sage, etc., WHATEVER. If they actually don't date Capricorns THEN you should be worried. But doing the above as a hobby is completely fine.

IMO most of the opinions were from very young people. Give it time. Even if you find someone who fits your do's & dont's their best friend or family member might not. Where does it stop?

A few, I don't really understand. "Want to be treated feminine but act masculine.", for example, currently #59. What's that even meant to mean? How does one act, in this sense, masculine? Rip a tree out the ground and lay it down, because there was no free bench at the riverside? Generally, all that aren't single points, and debatable as such, but lists, seem to be not what's asked here, yet it's full thereof. And I want to remain single anyway, so, basically ... it doesn't really matter in regard to dating and mating, but ... is this article even meant to be read by me? I don't really want to be part of a couple. The only time I just got up and left was ... a blind date set up by a friend, against my objection that setting up people to become couples is kinda wrong in itself, and also, after the usual bit of introduction, she issued a ten minute long rant about cats, and how her sister's cat ruined her homework, peed in her bed (yes, always was the cat, the dog, but not her), and how her "stupid sister" kicked out a grade-A dude, vastly exceeding me, because he hated her "stupid cat". I should have asked for sister's number, but didn't think of it then.

So ... let me get this straight: we want men to talk about their feelings, or talk about what bothers them, but when they do, instead of maybe, I don't know, talking about what they don't understand, we're just going to label and belittle and ridicule and scorn them. And then, tomorrow, we're going to have BP post talking about why men won't talk about what's bothering them. Yes, I don't agree with some of these, but maybe just let them get it out of their system.

I’m a middle aged white guy who voted for Hilary in 2016, and the next week at a party every woman and person under 40 gave me hate stares because I’d obviously voted for Trump. I’m a servant to my own conscience, not anyone else’s perceptions.

Hmm, this is interesting. The post from yesterday, which was very similar to this but women talking about men, currently has around 50 post votes. This one's currently at around 20. Judging by these comments, I'm getting a double standard kind of vibe from all of you.

Well, I don't do any of these things. Must just be my personality then. 🤔

For me one of the biggest things to make me lose interest in a women are smoking/d***s, having tattoos or piercings and unnecessary drama. Another thing which makes me reconsider interest is when a woman has zero ambitions, plans or hobbies. I had this recently with a ex-coworker I hanged out with a lot. It was impossible to initiate a conversation with her as the only thing she did besides work was being inside reading books all day long.

Playing hard to get/games in general, not "knowing" how to use a razor, being rude to animals, having no goals, constantly on the phone, just trying to live off of others etc. The more red flags you encounter, the more you ask yourself if you REALLY want to put up with those - and the answer should be no. There are enough great girls out there, don't settle if you got a bad feeling from the start.

Hmmm...the one about "all men bad" got a ton of upvotes, while this one is getting downvoted. Gee what a surprise.

Not as bad as some of these, but happened with many women (different movies). Imagine Thanos realizing henno longer has the infinity stones, Tony Stark saying And I... "Ok gonna go pee" or catching her browsing instagram. Damn, thats the best part of the movie!!!

To be fair, crossover media can be very boring for people aren't familiar with the source material. Even as someone who likes superheroes, I got sick of their movies when they were almost the only kind of movie being released for a while.
