No, you do not want to be unfair to your
date, but there are certain dating dealbrearkers that might end your
relationship even before beginning. Many new relationships are doomed right at
the start because of certain dealbreakers, which could be a trait, habit, or
personality that distracts you or you just cannot accept and compromise on. Now
it could be something that you cannot expect to see in a romantic partner.
1. 1. Boring
If a person is boring and has no life
dreams, hobbies, or passions, you could see it as a dealbreaker. This could
break their relationship with the person they are trying to date who could see
them as boring.
2. 2. Bad manners
Well, you want your date to have good
traits. But if they are rude and have a bag full of bad manners, you might not
want to continue with them. In fact, behavior and personal traits can make or
break a relationship. One such bad trait is cigarette smoking. Many people are
plain unhappy sitting or dating with someone who smokes. The reason could be
awful breath, bad teeth, ruined personality and /or looks, and poor health. Substance
abuse could be a dating dealbreaker for many.
3. 3. Unwilling to change
Some people consider the other person’s unwillingness
to change as a dealbreaker. Especially if the person is not keen to change for
personal growth. This is especially true if they are stuck in a job but still
do not want to learn and unlearn and/or expand their knowledge or hone their
skills to do better in life. Many people see their partner in those who are
open to change and not enslaved to their routine. Enjoying and accepting new
experiences can help you avoid this dating blunder.
4. 4. Social media obsession
People obsessed with social media can ruin
their relationship easily. Ignoring someone’s presence for social media is a
dealbreaker that you want to avoid. This comes to be seen as insulting the
other person.
5. 5. Lack of respect for self-image
or health
Not caring about your health or showing
utter disregard for self is a deal breaker for some people. So it might help to
be mindful about your health and show interest in maintaining your self-image
or figure by focusing on a healthy lifestyle.
6. 6. Poor communication
If you're dating someone, you expect the
communication to flow. But if the other person fails to communicate properly,
is unable to explain their interests, and cannot accept or deny things, that's
an ultimate dealbreaker. You cannot know a person without two-way communication
where you speak and they listen and vice versa. Asking all the wrong dating questions could also put a full stop to the relationship.
7. 7. Inconsistency
One of the biggest dating dealbreakers is
inconsistency on the part of someone you're dating. If a person is
untrustworthy because of inconsistent approach, this is a red signal and won’t
take your relationship too far. There is bound to be a lot of friction in such
a relationship. When you date someone, there is literally no place for
friction.
8. 8. Disrespect for others
If someone you're dating fails to respect
and value your morals, you may not be able to take the relationship far. Either
tell them how to treat you by setting the standard and sticking to them or call
it quits.
9. 9. Unfair expectations
The dating game can be a complex challenge,
especially if there are unfair expectations. Asking for too much or expecting
too much from a date might not be welcome for the other person. No doubt, this
could be an easy dating dealbreaker. Never expect your partner too go above and
beyond for you.
A relationship is like a vehicle that requires
the fuel of constant communication, understanding, fairness, and respect. Unless
you have these traits, you might not succeed in the dating game. Be wary of the
dating dealbreakers and blunders in order to be able to take the dating game
forward.
