Here are a few of mine:
** constant bragging
** making critical/belittling remarks about others that are uncalled for
** being self-centered
You know the type--it’s all about them. Apparently as children they never learned that the world doesn’t revolve around them.
** being judgmental
I think we’re all judgmental to some degree, but some people take it to the extreme
Leave a comment on this post and tell me your turn-offs!
As an incentive, everyone who replies will be entered into a drawing for a copy of Bewitched, Bothered & BeVampyre. Since we celebrate Halloween this month, I though a book containing witches, vampires, shifters, etc, would make a very appropriate prize :) This book is a collection of short stories by twenty authors, including Gena Showalter, PC Cast, Susan Grant, MaryJanice Davidson, Vicki Lewis Thompson, Rachel Carrington, and more.
You have until October 20th to leave a comment. On October 21st, I will choose one winner at random. Be aware that if you are the winner, your name and state (or country) of residency will be posted on my blog and website.
I DO need your email address so I can contact you in the event that you win the drawing. If I can backtrack and locate an address for you (for example, an email address listed on blogger), then that’s wonderful. If not, then you need to send your email address, along with a copy of your post, to pamelatyner@hotmail.com The winner will be notified by email and will have one week to reply. If there's no reply after seven days a new winner will be drawn.

My turn offs are guys who:
* think the world needs to bow down and worship them. They have the cocky walk and attitude.
* talk on their cell phones while on a date.
* flirt with the waitress and any other girl near by while on a date.
* while on the date telling me how great he is and all he is great at.
Don't call me again, thank you.
Whiners, negative people, people who criticize but have no ideas for improvements.
ack this blog hates me
He talks about old girlfriends.
Guys who think that they are God's gift to women, insecure males that try to make you feel about yourself, and all around jerks.

My turn offs:
deliberate rudeness
My PHYSICAL turnoffs: yellow, stained or crooked teeth (these things can and should be fixed)
Other turnoffs: talking bad about people - I can only imagine what might be said about me behind my back
My turn-offs:
--Poor manners. I don't insist that he open every door, but please don't be rude.
--I'm with christyjan when she complains about the bad teeth. Get them fixed. Amazing how some men have expensive cars and top of the line plasma TVs and bad teeth. And brush those teeth, OK??? There's no bigger turn-off then bad breath, dirty clothes and a smelly body.
--Constant self-aggrandizement. Have you ever noticed that most men's favorite topic is themselves, their golf game or their football team? YIKES.

Hmm, sorry to post again but I forgot to write my email adress... romantic_saamus@yahoo.ca
talk on cell phones while in the store bugs me when they are very loud and very vulgar.
People who always blame someone else for thier shortcomings or thier mistakes.
My turn offs are :
guys who look at other women and say things about other women while out with me, being rude to me or other people, body odor - bathing doesn't cost alot or take long to do. make jokes about me or how i look to other people. putting me down. thinks everyone loves their pet as much as they do. well the list could go on and on,but i think
i will stop here. LOL.
I have to agree with alot of these there a big turn off. But when I guy brag about himself and say he never give up his pleasure for you. To me that is a big turn off. Second one is to lie to you.
Third is to flirt with every female out there.
Hugs!

My biggest turn off is when a guy thinks that just because I'm a female, he's smarter & just plain better than me. Sorry to disappoint, but that's just not true.
I can't stand someone who has done everything and knows everything.I don't like a man who talks about his old girlfriends or women who "want" him.
Great prizes, Pamela. Some lucky gal is going to enjoy them a lot.
- I really don't like people who have a God complex, who think that it is their right to correct others no matter how personal the problem is.
- Men who think that they are the most superior beings and women are there just to dust their feet and polish their shoes.
- Constant nagging about one thing or the other.
- a person who bad mouths others. Some gossip is okay but sheesh who wants to know whether one wipes their feet after coming out of the wash room.
Thanks for letting me vent. I feel pounds lighter, today.
A lot of the same things that have already been mentioned. Guys that make fun or belittle other people. Flirting with other women while he's out with you. And a big one is monopolizing the conversation and not letting you get a word in, as if you're opinions and thoughts don't count.

My biggest turnoff is when a guy tries to force you to have sex.Demands you on what to wear and how to look.All ways talking about he can have any girl he wants.Thinks he is so good.I could go on and on but that gets a good point of things that turn me off.
One big turnoff for me is a poor tipper. I don't care how nice he is otherwise, if he doesn't tip well it's over.
Talking on his cell phone is another big turnoff, like others have said.
Another is someone who knows nothing about current events but can give you a blow-by-blow account of any sports event.

My MAJOR turn off is guys who chew tobacco and then expect a kiss with CHEW STILL IN THEIR MOUTH!! That is just gross!!
Also, men who talk about their ex's incessantly, are narcissistic, and are just rude...

An immediate dealbreaker for me is someone who is cruel or overly critical. If someone is mean to children, the elderly, or animals I would never even consider them a possibility.
Guys who have a chip on their shoulder due to previous relationships.
