Dating is hard, there’s no question about it. And while social media and dating apps were supposed to make it easier, in many cases they just put even more pressure on finding love.

So no wonder that people on Twitter had a lot to say when it comes to dating cliches and overused pickup lines. Think of countless The Office references in Tinder bios and cringe-worthy jokes like the one about loving pineapple on a pizza.

Below we wrapped up some illuminating tweets that reveal what really annoys people when looking for a date.

    This one for sure! If you can't come up with even one interesting thing to say about yourself, then I'm not going to "just ask".

    The controversial thing is being a drama queen over how other people like their pizzas. Eat it how you like and enjoy.

    I honestly don't get the height thing, even when I was dating I didn't see it (granted I'm cis woman, so I don't see other girls profiles, but no one I know would say such a thing!). I know it's true though, seen it too much online, for all I know it happens here too. Regardless, my point is: Judging someone on a physical trait, or something they don't control, it's like a little toxic backlash, misdirected "girl power" that is actually misandry and bigotry. Any judgement like that is so pointless, as it has nought to do with who that person is, what they are like. it shouldn't be so normalised: if men could openly say what size exactly their partner should be and no bigger it would not be so accepted (yes I know this happens too)

    I mean, there could be an opportunity for a gold digger here. Gigantism puts a lot of strain on the body and massively reduces life expectancy. 8' 10" is just shy of the worst case ever recorded and he died at 22.
