what makes you say "absolutely not?"

Ladies, is there anything that makes you say "Absolutely not?" to a man? Ie smokers, drinkers, I'll start it off myself, to set the bar. I say "absolutely not" if she's white, and more than five years either side of my own age

I know I'm young and naive, and also not a woman(lol), but if anyone takes the time to read this I urge you to walk away with more of an open-mind than you once had.



I'm not going to type a life-changing story or an example leading up to a life lesson: rather, a simple statement.



Know who you want, what you want, and what factors in a relationship you want. But, don't immediately turn down someone based on a few "No ways."



Especially when it comes to online dating. There are so many more factors involved than reading someone's profile and smacking a big "Yes" or "No" then moving on.



So the person smokes. Maybe they're ashamed and trying to quit? So the person isn't active in his/her church. Encourage them to be! So the person doesn't have a college degree: As Storm stated, many men can have a great job, especially in this economy, without a college degree.



Money may not be everything, but it does make the world go 'round, and I understand that. Still, why risk true love based on a man's lower annual income than your own? That could change one day, especially if he has high aspirations.



Forgive me if I ranted at all. I don't mean to demean anyone else's desires or turn offs when it comes to men/women. I have my own preferences in a woman, but I'm flexible too. Just from my perspective, love is meant to be risky. I'd rather risk working on a few things that bother me about the other person in the relationship than not taking the risk to see if it would work out. So, I'm not saying you should LOOK OVER their faults, or what you perceive to be faults, but to openly voice what bothers you so that they can work to compromise or change.

My two "absolutely not" are drinking and smoking. I do not like to live in that type of atmosphere, so I wouldn't want my spouse to be doing it either.
