The dating pool these days is as messy as it gets. You meet someone, the conversation flows, you have a good time, and you might even start imagining where this could go. Then boom, something happens, and now the whole vibe is gone.
Men on Reddit shared the surprisingly petty reasons they have lost interest in a woman. We rounded up the ones that will have you shrugging in agreement, or maybe wondering how some of these things ever became dealbreakers. And if you are happily partnered up, you might finish this list feeling a little more grateful for the person who puts up with you.

She kept saying “silly goofy” and “dilly dally”. It came across so forced and she said it so much that it started weirding me out. So yeah.

She was easily influenced by TV ads if they had people in them that she thought were "trendy" or "cool". She saw a McDonald's ad back when they were selling cheese toasties and because the people eating them in the ad looked "cool", so she wouldn't stop talking about how she had to get a cheese toasty from Maccas because then she'd be cool too. Everything about her was somehow to do with fitting in with the hip crowd, it drove me over the edge and I had to walk away.

She spent a lot of time around horses, which wasn't the problem, but she smelled like horse manure even after showering. Even her breath smelled like it. After making out once I was like... naahhhh.

She sent me a bunch of Seinfeld gifs before our first date. Day after day. Like the Seinfeld gang being wacky and dancing for joy. I discovered that women liking Seinfeld too much is just a huge turnoff for me.

First date. She bragged about cooking constantly. At the end of the night I’m driving her home. She asks me to drop he off at a Whole Foods so she can go home and bake banana bread. I asked “do you know all the ingredients you have at home?” She looked at me slack jawed and said “I don’t need ingredients. I’m going to buy a loaf of baba bread and bake it in the oven.”.

Met a girl on twitter a couple years back and coincidentally she lived like 2 hours away. I drive to meet her and as soon as she entered the vehicle a stench hit me like a nuke lol. Idk if it was her mouth or 🐱 but that was enough for me to never talk to her again.
To this day it has to be the worst smell ive ever encountered on a person. Ive had dirty class mates that stank, other girls that stank down there, and it still was nowhere near as bad as this girl. It’s mind boggling to me that a person could smell that bad.

Went to her house and she put on the big bang theory. I liked her so I endured the full episode. I asked if she was ready to go out and instead she put on another episode. I instantly realized we were incompatible and I got the f**k outta there. .

I don’t think I’ve ever lost interest in someone for a dumb reason. It takes something pretty big to change my feelings towards anyone.
I will say there was one girl that kept saying eckspecially, and eckspresso, rather than especially or espresso. Still liked her though.

Our son told us he walked away from a girl he was interested in at a bar...
She had the same name as his sister.

She was a messy eater. We were on a date, probably around #10, went to an art gallery opening and then to a decent restaurant, since we were dressed nicely. Ended the meal sharing a tiramisu, and when we were done, she had it all over her face and looked like the Temu version of an OF creator, I can tell you. I knew at that moment it was over.

They said that they don't like it when people cry, I had basically asked them a question about how they handle emotional situations.

She picked me up on our second date. Her car stunk of farts. Maybe she was nervous, but I decided never again.

She changed the music while I was driving and touched the shifter (stick shift). I had to stop her from popping the car out of gear or changing gears.
