No, you said a woman who had those qualities listed was a catch. If that's the case, then a real woman isn't a catch. Real men & women don't have the issues on my red flag list.
I constantly ignore my red flags and then I wonder when the shit around me explodes....LOL One day Im gonna grow up ......maybe
If she thinks restaurant Buffets are named after Jimmy Buffet. If she breathes too much. If she thinks cyclones and hurricanes are only sports teams. If she thinks Kobe Bryant is better than MJ. If she wonders why theres no such thing as moonglasses. hmmm what else........ if the amount of guys she's been with looks like a zipcode.
This is a good list of turnoffs. I would not want a woman who is like this, either. You must not want a real woman then.
I think most of us have this issue. I know I've been guilty of ignoring the signs that someone isn't worth a shit. It's bitten me in the ass every time...and not in a good way. :sad: Thanks, Fiery.

*Talks about a "crazy ex girlfriend." Very few people have exes who are truly insane; the guy was probably just shitty to her and it made her act like a nut. He will likely do the same thing to you. *He is not college educated. I am, I need a man who is as well. *He has children by more than one woman/was not married to the woman he fathered a child with. *He doesn't get along with his child's/children's mother. *He doesn't get along with his mother. *He is one bad circumstance from being destitute because he can't handle his money. *He is cheap. I know how to save and I know how to spend for the good things in life. *He must be stable enough in his career to support a family if we ever take that step.
I must admit, it is really a turn off for a man to have children at all. There's just this biological imperative in me that feels if I'm with a guy to marry and have children, I want all of our resources going to our children, not split with his and some other woman's children.
I ignore my red flags because my preference is honesty. Every other negative thing about them that pisses me off is dismissed. Honesty out weighs other shortcomings in a woman to me. She can get away with murder as long as she is honest.
- If a guy comes off as shady or suspicious and I don't trust him - adios! - If he's argumentative and an asshole from the get go - adios!
