Clingy, being controlling, clingy, or too jealous. Promiscuous, having had sex with many other partners and having dated many other people. Apathetic, being inattentive or uncaring, being untrustworthy, and being dismissive of one's interests.

Selfishness is one of the common deal breakers for women. Many women will not want to be with you if you are not generous. They need to be sure that even when you don't have much, you will be able to do the barest minimum.

Other things found to be flirting deal-breakers included swearing, getting too close to the other person, and just not being very smart. The survey also found that people find it unattractive when someone flirting with them is a narcissist — but also if they have low self-esteem.
One of the top traits men (and women) are looking for when they're dating is kindness. And the number one they avoid like the plague? Dishonesty. It's a broad term, but any kind of dishonesty should be an immediate deal breaker, according to New York psychotherapist, Melissa Divaris Thompson.
Overly controlling behavior is a common red flag in relationships. People that try to control your movements, decisions, or beliefs are more concerned about what they want than what is best for you. If a guy or girl tries to control what you wear or where you go, this could be a red flag.
The most common reasons for breakups usually include fading feelings, infidelity, a lack of effort, a loss of trust, and a pattern of unproductive, unhealthy fights.
The main reasons why relationships fail are loss of trust, poor communication, lack of respect, a difference in priorities, and little intimacy. This article discusses why each may cause a relationship to come to an end.
Beyond these more obvious deal breakers are a host of things some singles will not tolerate from a partner such as poor hygiene, a sloppy or unattractive appearance, neediness or possessiveness, jealousy, smoking, a lack of social skills, bad sex or a lack of affection, a poor sense of humor, or an unhealthy lifestyle.
In this issue, we focus on one of my favorite questions as an Interviewer…”what are your deal breakers?” A “deal breaker” is something so important to the Job Seeker that if he or she does not receive it in their next job offer they won't accept it (therefore it is a “deal breaker”).
A whopping 71 per cent of respondents said their partner's uncleanliness would make them uncomfortable. By contrast, 21 per cent said they would be uncomfortable if their partners cared more about cleanliness than them.
Most issues in a relationship can be worked through if both parties are willing to make changes, but in the case of gaslighting, or any form of emotional and mental abuse, it's a deal breaker.
Unacceptable behavior examples can include physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, manipulation, control, lying, cheating, disrespecting boundaries, ignoring or invalidating feelings, belittling or demeaning, and refusing to take responsibility for one's actions.
The bottom line is, it's okay if physical attraction and sex are deal-breakers for you. If someone wants you but you don't want them, it's not going to work. Chemistry makes a huge difference in a relationship, and as we all know, the heart wants what it wants.
The easy answer would be “deal-maker”, but I'd prefer the term clincher. Have you ever negotiated something and just so happened to say the right thing and it resulted in you clinching the deal? Same thing applies here.
December might be a time for joy and goodwill – but it's also the most popular time for couples to break up.
While it is established that about half of all marriages end in divorce, it is commonly assumed that the breakups are initiated by both genders equally. In fact, it is surprising to most people that women are actually more likely to end their marriages than men.
In that time, I've noticed something: the prime number years of relationships are often the hardest (i.e. 1, 3. 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29…) Often, it seems these years correspond with significant transitions and pressure points in marriage.
