nope.

(captcha: "do you love me?" really? is universe playing stupid jokes on me, or is that capcha trying to be contextual?)

(edit: funny, I entered "no" as an answer and it was accepted)
Since you gave such an assertive answer with no context, I'm just going to assume that you know this because you tried it yourself.

I talk a lot, so maybe that's one thing. I look threatening (been told this many times) despite almost never being in a bad mood and laughing a lot. This may be caused by the fact that I'm a big guy with small eyes and a big jaw. It's really irritating having to try and look friendly all the time so girls don't think I'm about to rape them or something.

Tell a story! How else can I know that you're not just trying to trick me out of an easy weight loss method?

Frankly I have no idea. I'm aware that I have flaws but I can't pinpoint which ones are "deal breakers". But I'm looking over other answers in this thread and have been noticing some pretty funny trends. For example, in the original "what's a deal breaker for you" thread, quite a few people complained about the potential partner being a party animal. But in this thread, it's the opposite: people are admitting that they are not party animals and that this might be a deal breaker for some!

I talk a lot about random stuff, don't have very broad interests (although I can still talk about almost anything), I sometimes swear a lot, and am sarcastic. Very few of these have ever counted against me since any girl I ask out will probably be okay with most of these. If a girl doesn't have at least a few of these things in common I probably won't follow up on her in the first place unless there's a good chance of getting laid. Basically over the years I have learned to get past my old insecurities and managed to turn my sarcasm into a strength most of the time rather than a turn off.

I'm quite happy NOT to see people I like for a day or so, like I might see them 2 or 3 times a week and not mind having no contact between then. I tend to run out of things to say and talk about if I'm seeing people every day, so that could cause problems where I'd be seeing somebody on Tuesday and then they might not see me until Friday. I certainly enjoy your company but I also value my personal time, it's pretty much a 50:50 split.

Also, while I try not to be, I tend to come across as quite negative about things. I really don't want to be and usually ask to be called out about it.

I'm not sure what to do with the first one, not even sure I want to change it, but I'm trying to work on the second.

Uh, well considering I've never had a girlfriend yet there's probably a lot of things; that, or I'm just really shy (Probably both)

I'm Catholic, so a lot of people on the forums probably wouldn't date me lol (Although I'm not a zealous one...) That said, I don't think many people my age (17) would care

I think I have bad breath, but I'm not really sure. I've tried a couple of "tests" and have gotten mixed results, I should probably just ask someone...

I have braces

I have a fair amount of blackheads on my face and back :/

I'm pale

I have a big nose

I'm Polish

I'm a pretty big tech/videogame nerd

I watch cartoons like Regular Show and Adventure time

I don't have the most appealing voice

I'm not the most sociable person

I'm against alcohol (I don't want to be put in a position where I could blackout/ not remember the things I did/do more stupid things than usual)

That's all I can think of at the moment, and it was a lot :(

Well here comes my list
-I like hanging out with mates, to the point where I probably may neglect my partner, I've been accused of this in the past
-I play devils advocate just for shits and giggles, apparently its really annoying.
-I do have a very relaxed and laid back nature though, to the point of not being able to give a fuck for things, when I should care about them.
-I'm quite the horny fellow, I just can't help myself, so if you don't like sex as much as I do, could be problems.
-I wear thongs (not the g-string type thong, the footwear) all year around. its apparently dorky, but there just so damn comfy
-I probably drink too much but its harmless, I'm a pretty jovial lad after some beers. but apparently drinking lots is a sin according to the escapist, so maybe its a deal breaker..

Introverted to the point of near catatonia(holy shit that's a word!) sometimes.
Obsessed with porn, especially the freaky stuff.
Hate all sports, my hatred going up to match the popularity of the sport in question.
Completely out of shape.
Very happy in a dead end job with no real future prospects.
Can't study for shit and have resigned to never going back to school.
Only hobbies involve my computer.
Likes to get drunk alone. (It's going on right now! This shit is so meta.)
Premature ejaculator.
I have pretty much no ethics. I work in a meat packaging plant, and as a wedding gift I went vegetarian for year for my sister. Pretty much as a joke. And I was fucking hardcore about it too, I didn't even eat ham flavoured crisps.
Running out of steam now due to the booze.
Give up on things easily and blame my own failings on 3rd party influences like alcohol. (Is this meta again?)

I dislike large social gatherings. Parties and clubs are a nightmare. The fact I like My Little Pony might put some people off. I'm also fairly lazy and like my alone time.

I guess I would not really liek to talk to myself:
I am way to introverted, on parties I sit on my place, drink my beer and can't really talk to people I just met. Right now I also am quite depressive with some shit going on in my life and I am kinda a downer. Furthermore I can get quite annoying when I get to like somebody (I see my mistakes there while I do them, but I can't stop myself). Also I never know what to talk about, so talking with me leads to a lot of awkward silence all the time.

Okay then I'll bite, Long time lurker first time poster and all that.
So traits others would find unappealing in me well I guess...

1) Apparently being bisexual is a major problem for some people (Including one ex girlfriend who was worried that I thought she looked like a man and that's why I was with her. An old boyfriend who got really freaked out when I said I'd been with women before.)

2) I like drinking and going to metal clubs and parties, which an ex found terrifying when I showed her what a mosh pit was.

3) Being heavily into video games, Spawn comics (hence the avatar) and war-hammer to some extent.

4) Also having a soul that resembles a black hole is not considered a good character trait, never quite figured out why though...

- Rather creepy looking in general, and people seem to get uncomfortable if I accidentally make eye contact (which I try to avoid).
- Excessively bad posture.
- Completely incapable of handling pretty much any social situation.
- Boring as fuck.
- Bad humour.
- Rather short for a man.
- Utterly nihilistic with no purpose and direction.
- Zero initiative.
- Mean for no reason.
- Whiny as shit.

Yeah. No wonder I'm never going to have a relationship. I wish I could say I was okay with that, but I don't feel like bullshitting myself.
Oh well. Life is not always fun.

-6'2''
-Straight A's (well one B, but don't say anything)
-I'm Social but wouldn't mind sitting in all day :p
-Comically just look at Louis C.K. and Will Ferrel and then you know what I like.
-I have white hair, I dyed it when I was about 10 and that happened (basicly I'm what ol' Uncle Adolf wanted :p)
-Semi-Religious, I mean compare to the average person I'm a zealot, I go to church practically everyday. But I don't think myself as a religious person. I think I just happen to have personal standards that luckily run alongside with my inherent religion pretty well. I'm more about personal revelation and self-meditation.
-When it comes to relationships... man I don't even know where to begin. "Available" I guess is all I can say.

So yeah, I guess I'm arrogant as hell.

EDIT: Some ACTUAL dealbreakers:
-I slant things that I support in my favor to the point of non-negotiable (mostly for things like Movies and/or Games that I enjoy).
-Still have no idea what I'm doing.
-I've got a big mouth. I will keep a secret with me to the grave but I can talk myself into a corner.
-I see things pretty black or white. The less clutter I see the better in my opinion.
-I get jealous and/or competitive with ANYTHING easily.

hmm, I swear a lot, power dress, have a bad bad attitude, and polarised moods (either swinging from the rooftops or crashed out dead on the floor). I am also pretty cold and unfriendly to people when I first meet them. To top it all off, I have a really big mouth.

My personality is of an 80s alpha ***** so some men tend to be intimidated by me too, ahem. Plus I am an evil and unrepentant sadist in the bedroom.

Meh, gentlemen, line right up of you dare, but this ride won't be easy.

Ha, I am probably going to end up with one of those 90s musician types who will carve "I love you" in his chest with a compass just to get my attention.
