On December 23, Reddit user u/EGB1 asked fellow Redditors who are part of the r/AskReddit Community, “What opinion or behaviour would stop you being romantically interested in someone even if they ticked every other box?” In an instant, the Reddit thread went quickly viral and as of December 26, has almost 25,000 responses.
Now, with all of that being said, take a look down below and read the following 15 Stories of The Behaviors/Opinions That Caused People To Stop Being Romantically Interested in Someone Even if They Ticked Every Other Box:
“I had an ex who consistently lied and omitted things. Usually not about anything huge, but she had a habit of it and didn’t seem to think it was wrong. The longer we dated the worse it got. Eventually it really divided us because I couldn’t trust anything she said.
From then on, if I discovered I was with someone who lied often as a tactic, to get what they want, to avoid consequences, etc. that was pretty much the end of the relationship for me.”

“Summer time. Dropping off my date. Gorgeous smile. Long dark hair, dark eyes, tank top, shorts and flip flops wearing an absolutely gorgeous tan. Slips off her flip flops and chews her toe nails!! Skipped the kiss good nite, thanks!”
-Redditor Umpire46
“Had an ex where this happened! My best friends little sister died in a car crash and I was torn up about it. He became indifferent towards me because I was “too depressed to be with”
If someone can’t handle being a decent human being when I’m heartbroken, what are they going to act like when it’s my mom? Dad? Dog even? “Woops sorry but I don’t wanna hang out because you’re sad.”
EDIT: Oh wow this blew up. Thanks for all the karma and awards!
To everyone who went through something similar: all those people suck and we’re better off. Not everyone knows how to grieve, but we all find out one day. I hope you’re all doing better ❤️”

“A girl told me she had been engaged six times. She was 29.
I know things happen. But that’s a lot of things.”

“This might get buried (or down voted) but I’ve gone on one too many first dates with people who just talked at me the entire time. To the point where if I’m on a date with someone new and they start doing this my brain starts to shut down and I immediately start losing interest.
I get that people are nervous on first dates and probably talk more just to fill the silence but like, don’t you want to know who I am? Maybe just a little bit? Like ask me some questions. Give yourself a break from talking. It blows my mind when this happens and then at the end they say “oh I really like you, you’re great!” But they literally know nothing about me because I just spent the last 2-3 hours listening to them talk about themselves the entire time.”

“Entitled behavior. People who act like the world owes them everything when they were raised with more than most people. People who demand respect but treat others poorly.”
-Redditor bangcamaroxx
“I dumped a guy once because he said gay conversion therapy was a good idea. It wasn’t the only thing wrong with him but it was defiantly a deal breaker.”
-Redditor rubellaann
“Being condescending. I hate it. It makes me angry. Be nice to people. Accept they may not be as knowledgeable as you on a subject. Don’t condescend.”
-Redditor crazyboutdogs
“Drunk driving. No way no how. You do that once and you’re dead to me. Risk your own fucking life not everyone else’s around you.”
-Redditor midgetpornfanatic
“Never admitting or thinking that they can be wrong.”
-Redditor miraflower
“Being obsessed with social media or needing to document everything all the time and project a perfect version of their life.”
-Redditor neonpeg
““Yes dear”-ism. I briefly dated a guy who agreed with everything I said and wanted me to make all the decisions. He didn’t want to rock the boat in any way ever. Not having the spine to assert yourself isn’t an attractive quality.”
-Redditor howdy_moody
“Being a hardcore conspiracy theorist. Dude I was interested in started explaining how he thinks trump might be a plant to expose the child sex trafficking ring among the elite. He was basically QAnon before it got popular. Every single thing I brought up, even things not related to politics, he had some wild theory about. Now mind you, I am a biologist and science lover and if you can’t bring me hard evidence for something, it’s just a theory and you can’t preach it at me like it’s fact.
We hooked up once and I don’t much care to ever see him again. It was impossible to have normal conversations.”
-Redditor PensiveRevelation
“Hoarding – I made this mistake once, I got into a relationship with a hoarder. I eventually realized that her deeply dysfunctional relationship to objects extended to the people around her. I was not an actual person, I was just another acquisition that was acquired and subsequently treated shabbily. I’m not sure if this is common but I won’t take the chance again.”

“You know, if we think about it, Hitler wasn’t all that bad.”
