We’ve all got quirks when it comes to dating. A person can seem great, but if they break the arbitrary rules we set in our mind, it’s a no.
On Reddit, women are sharing the “weird” things that make them run for the hills.
And they’re truly not weird at all.
Like, if you were out to dinner with a date and they refused to tip the server fairly, you’d hopefully question them. Or maybe you just can’t deal with a date who spends too much time on their hair. Either way, it’s your prerogative to run for those hills.

That’s all he would talk about, how he was going to school to become a colonel (I can’t really remember it’s been a few years), and what he was planning to do while he was living his dream. Kudos to him and his willingness to fight for the U.S but you just could not talk to him about anything else.
