In your relationships, what be the one thing that would be a deal breaker for you. The most obvious relationship would be one with a spouse or romantic partner. I am asking this because I as well as a couple of my friends are going through hard times with our significant others and I am just curious, if you would not mind sharing.
Ohh so many things. But I'd say number one is dishonesty. Whether it's small things or big ones, if you are being lied to then something is definitely wrong.
There are a number of things that can a deal breaker in a relationship. As far as personal relationships and romantic relationships go my big things are, honesty, humor, and actually enjoying having me around. Romantic relationships and personal relationships compare in the sense that the big three are needed, but they become arguably more important in romantic relationships. I could not date someone who is dishonest, and doesn't enjoy having me around.
Trust and honesty for me are the two key parts in any relationship, bother business and also on a personal level aswell. If you don't trust somebody, or they can't put their trust in you, then that relationship is over before it's even begun.
Besides smoking, this would be the number one pet peeve. If you are stinking liar, then you need get out the door. I won't put up with a lying and deceiving partner. That leads to more trouble then I can handle.
For me, someone who is a loud / messy eater. If they can't keep their mouth shut, and this generally applies to friends too, I just can't stand to be around them. It's generally avoided by simply asking them to be quiet, but there have been cases of people going out of their way to be loud :C
Dishonesty and lying are big ones for me too and that is what I am dealing with at the moment. My other half lied to me about something pretty big and has been dishonest for months now. I really trusted him for the entire 11 years we have been together and recently got a huge slap in the face. That is the hard part right now, figuring out what to do with it all.
For me deal breakers in a relationship include one or more of the following: Someone who is a religious fanatic, politically conservative, controlling, insecure, dishonest, verbally or physically abusive, someone who cheats, a person who is not affectionate, doesn't like animals, judgemental, arrogant and someone who is crude.
Cheating is a huge no. Arrogance and dishonesty are very high up there too. I think if somebody has to be constantly hiding things from you, you should just break it off from them and cut your losses.
Cheating. I don't like people who are cheating to their significant other. You know it's just wrong to do that.
