Even though more women than men considered the traits to be deal breakers, there were more similarities than differences between the sexes. And, uh, clean up your act if you're guilty of number one.The top deal-breaker among men and women is a "disheveled or unclean appearance," according to 71 percent of women and 63 percent of men.Although these deal breakers are unique to an individual, there are some basic ones that almost every woman seems to have.So, here’s a list of common dating deal breakers that most women seem to have: 1.They surveyed 92 college students who were asked to list their personal deal breakers for long- and short-term relationships.Most of the students didn’t name that many—an average of just under 5 deal breakers for long-term relationships, and 3 for short-term relationships.
Online dating is one of those weird things that is somehow simultaneously exciting and frustrating.Likewise, we all have a few pet peeves that we cannot take our minds off of.Each person has a different level of tolerance for the other person’s idiosyncrasies, and in most situations, lack of courtesy.The researchers conducted six separate studies to determine what men and women consider the absolute worst offenders when it comes to dating. Some of the general takeaways: deal breakers are more potent in long-term relationships than short-term (you're less invested in your partner when it's a fling, and far more willing to overlook the annoyances); women have more deal breakers than men, possibly because the risks are more dire (i.e.they're looking for someone who can support them through rearing a child); men and women who consider themselves to be highly desirable and have a bevy of favorable traits have more deal breakers; and people weigh deal breakers more heavily than deal makers—more so for women than men—meaning the negative attributes will overshadow any good ones, no matter how good., the researchers supplied 5,541 single U. adults with a list of 17 negative personality traits and asked them whether they would consider them deal breakers in a mate in a long-term relationship, the reports.
