40 Weird, Yet Understandable Situations After Which People Realized They Should Stop Dating Someone
For some dating is an important thing in life. And it doesn’t matter if you consider yourself a dating guru or if you agree to go out once in a blue moon. I guess the very fact of it makes us all feel pretty much the same: jitters and excitement before the date or total disappointment afterwards. Let’s agree that beautiful and promising date stories should be left to be discussed with your best friends. But where to put the distress and disbelieve that was brought by these other awful dates?
This time, for this particular reason, Reddit asked its community to share the pettiest reasons why its users refused to give a second chance to their date. People opened their hearts and gave some interesting, never heard answers, as well as common reasons that we all probably encountered through our dating experience.
Can you relate to any of these situations? Or maybe you have an even better story of why you couldn’t say “yes” to a second date? Share your thoughts and "best" experiences in the comments!

She was a volunteer at the Zoo and when kids asked her questions she didn’t know the answer to, she would make something up and lie.
Growing up on zoobooks and Steve Irwin, I take animal facts very seriously.

I sometimes lie to children about animal and other facts. But I always make it so the lie is completely outrageous and when they notice (because they will), I go "Whaaaaat? No, why would I lie to you? Do you know a better reason why the owls have such big eyes?" and mostly, the kids will giggle and think for themselves. But I always make sure that I actually know the truth - if I don't know, I just tell them that it is a very good question and that I will look it up, but maybe they have an idea? Kids can be so much fun, especially if you tease them and they notice.

He was wearing a hideous brown fake leather jacket, it was so old that the ‘leather’ had started to flake off and parts were just now canvas.
He kept stopping to look at himself in windows and saying ‘oh god I look so hot today’ ‘I just can’t believe how hot I look’ smoothing down his manky jacket, side eyeing me, expecting me to agree with him.
I left so he could be alone with his jacket.

The tragic part is the girlfriend, not him. I generally wish for these drivers to get into a "peaceful" accident that's just them, their car, and a rock or pier. These people are a car crash waiting to happen anyway - the best outcome one can hope for is that that crash doesn't cause damage to anyone else.

Modern action films are very confusing to me due to their plot format. How should I know whether a fact has been already established or character familiar, or completely new information to everybody, if everybody in the movie act like they know who the person is or what is going on? Why don't they make it clear, that now this character is new to others, like in every other genre. This is the main reason why I don't watch modern action - super lazy storytelling and lack of nuances.

Look up the Glenn Danzig (a d**k but anyways) quote on returning the shopping cart and how this act almost sums up a person's entire existence in a society. Re-racking weights is the same. It is not legally required but it says a lot about how a person respects others and tries to be a productive member of society.
RoseTheMad 4 years ago
Because they could barely lift them to begin with and couldn't possibly lift them to return them. The amount of time I've seen people take weights that are too heavy for them just for the purposes of showing off is insane - then they just end up with damaged muscles because whilst they technically CAN lift the weights and continue to do so, it puts just a little too much strain on your muscles. Stick to something you can comfortably lift, even drop down to a lower weight if you've still got reps left in your workout but you're feeling tired.

He stared at me blankly when I said the word "republican" when describing one of my family members. I followed up and sure enough, he literally had no idea what the word republican meant and didn't know about our largely two-party system. He was in his late 20's. If you're not into politics, that's one thing, but he had managed to live nearly three decades in our country without knowing basic information about our political system.

I wonder what was behind that. If she did not smell like egg, and OP did not, too... Maybe a combination of both. I would really like to know the chemical reasons
Beans 4 years ago
I presume that something about their naturral body chemistry smells mingling created a sulfric smell. I used to know someone that worked in fragrance for a living and they explained to me that every fragrance smells different on every body and some smells react with each other negatively. So for example that aunt that always smells kinda weird might be because she insists on wearing Daisy by Marc Jacobs even though it doesn't suit her person al chemistry. I'm thinking that can happen with people's odour too.

So, a lot of trivia games make the assumption that you have been exposed to roughly the same data set (movies, for example). If someone doesn't watch movies or is deviant from baseline, of course they're not going to know any of the trivia questions. For example: I see no point in sports and derive no enjoyment from watching them. If I were to participate in a sports trivia game, I obviously would lose and badly. I haven't acquired the data set of facts a sports fan would know, simply because I am uninterested in them.

This really, really depends. Was he totally unaware of major parts of pop culture (e.g. Disney, Marvel, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, 50 Shades of Grey) that you can barely avoid, and certainly not all at once? Then, I could kind of get it. But if he did, and only lacked knowledge about authors, actors, characters and dates... well, you need to pay closer attention to pick up and memorize those, and quite a few people simply have different interests. Though if OP is so shocked about this, the culture divide was probably too wide either way.

I lived in a place where the upward inflection was an important cue. When a person ended a sentence with an upward inflection, it meant "I am not done talking, but you know what I mean?" It's asking the listener to signal understanding ( a nod, an un-huh, an Mmm, so many ways to signal understanding or acknowledgment) and otherwise stay silent. When they ended a sentence with a level or downward inflection, it meant "Your turn. I have finished my thought." If this not understood, and the listener jumps in too soon, s/he is seen as pushy, rude, aggressive, etc.

Double-dipping on the first date? definite deal breaker. Scientists have analyzed bacterial growth due to double dipping. They substituted sterilized water for dip. They single-dipped in the first glass; double-dipped in the second. They found significantly higher levels of bacteria (1,000 more per milliliter) in the water after double-dipping had occurred. One scientist said, "I suppose if you don't mind French kissing every person in the room, that might be okay."

I went on a date with a guy and while holding hands, he would squeeze my hand really hard. Our fingers were interlaced and he would squeeze my fingers until they hurt. I would tell him it hurt and he would laugh, relax his hand and then do it again a few minutes later. I never returned his calls or saw him again.

On the first and only date with this man he asked me if was good with children, cooking, cleaning and other general housework. He also told me how lucky I was to have him this particular night as he usually spends his night down in his local pub since his wife left him with 3 kids ages 3, 5 and 7. He said he usually gets his mother to babysit but she's retiring soon and moving away. I soon left and blocked all contact. He didn't want a girlfriend, he wanted a live in Nanny and house keeper. I don't plan to be either.

Guy I dated was dumped by his ex and he very much wanted to get back with her. He told me... repeatedly... Said that if she asked him to come back, he would say yes, while we were on a date. Told him the next day to go talk to her and get back together. Few hours later he wanted to take a walk and told me he talked and they were getting back together. Looked at me, anticipating me crying or something and I was just confused why he wanted that walk and tell me. Since I told him to go back to her, I figured it was clear I wanted to break up? He was disappointed I didn’t care :D

Why are people downvoting things for being petty on a list of "the pettiest reasons"?

So, if we think the reason is petty enough as not to warrant a breakup, should we down vote, or should we up vote? I guess you can argue either way!

I started dating this man and the very first sentence that came out of his mouth I knew he was the dumbest man I had ever met. Still, I was new in town, he was ruggedly handsome. I had to call it quits when we were playing a game of Blackjack and I said "hit me" and he looked dumbfounded and said "I would never hit you baby"...the entire table burst laughing because he was 100% serious. I thought he was sweet but just way too dumb. Plus he lied about everything...even his name!?

I briefly saw a guy like that. I refer to him as, "being as handsome as a Greek statue...and about as smart as one."
