People Were Asked What Made Them Lose Interest In Their Crush, Here Are The Best Replies

"The guy was academic, hygienic, and sweet. Treated waitstaff appropriately. Spoke formally but still funny. Shared things in common w me. Perfect gentleman. Date ended 10/10

While driving me home, at a stop light, pointed to a homeless man crossing the street, and said “I would stop my car for anybody crossing the street, just not homeless men. Where do they have to be? They're in no hurry.”

My thinking: ok... unsolicited and kinda odd

He added another comment: It'd be funny if I run him over.

Me: ghosted him like right after he dropped me off."

"Cute girl in 9th grade, there was a party over at her house, out in the country. Had a big ole crush on her. So she says they raised chinchillas, ok everyone wants to see the fuzzy critters. There were about a hundred of them, the ammonia smell was unreal. So there's a platform with battery cables on it, and I asked what that was for, and she said "here I'll show you, have some ready to go anyway". She grabbed a little fuzzy critter, clamped the cables on it, and threw the switch. Without missing a beat killed that critter. It was bizarre that a teenage girl could electrocute an animal that easily. No more crush, I was actually afraid of her a little after that. It kind of sucked the life out of the party, to say the least."

"He was making fun of a disabled woman. Instantly not interested."

"We were driving down the road and she threw a Starbucks cup right out the window. Gross."

"Was pretty rude to and consistently teased his roommate's dog. Just be nice to animals. Not that hard."

"I was casually dating a 19-year-old guy when I was 18. He seemed totally normal until I met him at his house before a date and his mom asked him to take the garbage out before we left. He threw a fit that would embarrass most 3-year-olds including crying, yelling at his mom, and punching the floor. I pretended that my parents were calling and needed me to come home, blocked his number, and never saw him again."

"She said she was a flat earther."

"For context: Him- 6’4”, built dude Me: 5’0 non-built lady

We were hanging out at his house when he ‘jokingly’ blocked my way when it was time for me to go and wouldn’t let me pass. I asked him to let me by, and when he wouldn’t, I told him I was uncomfortable and he called me a crazy b****. That was the end of that for me."

"Poured lemonade on my head in the middle of a fireworks show, she thought it was flirty and cute."

"Met a woman, and thought she seemed cool. We went out to eat, and she's telling me about how she fell on financially hard times and moved back in with her parents. The way she described it, just sounded like she got unlucky, not that she did anything irresponsible. It happens. When the bill came I told her I'd pay. She said, "Thanks, I appreciate that, I'm trying to save my money right now."

Me: "Sure, I understand, you want to get your own place again."

Her: "No, actually I mean I'm trying to save up $500 for a tattoo I want to get."

I've got nothing against spending money on tattoos, but when you've just spent a first date talking about the financial troubles you have, maybe now's the time to start putting money away for necessities, not tattoos."

"Gave me a 5-minute lecture on conditions where cheating is okay."

"Told me after hanging out with her friends, "my friends thought it was really rude that you didn't say 'god bless you' when I sneezed."

I owe you nothing, Emily. I'm not in charge of keeping Satan out of your nostrils or whatever."

"Said she didn’t really like animals. I have two dogs and I’m pre-vet (applying to vet school soon!) so that’s just an instant 'Oh, we will not be compatible' moment."

"Music. Off phone. In public. No earbuds."

"He snapped his fingers at a waitress... then as I looked mortified, he whistled."

"She told me her future plans to essentially become a gold digger like her mother. When I laughed it off she couldn’t see what I thought was so funny."

"Not so much a crush, but we were in the initial sentences of the conversation getting to know each other. We were describing to one another what our jobs were. He corrected me on describing my job... stopped right there, said it wasn’t going to work out, and ended the conversation."

"Opened internet explorer when firefox and chrome were RIGHT THERE."

"This, and making fun of somebody's laugh are two of the most messed up things that a person can do. It serves no purpose except to make someone feel self-conscious every time they are enjoying themselves."

"On a first date, dude told me he literally didn't have any empathy for other people. All of my true crime training immediately set off the alarm bells for him being a sociopath. Also, who acts like they're proud of not having a basic human emotion??"
