Something tells me your sense of humor isn't all that developed either, or perhaps leans towards Gallagher.

What do you have against a guy with a roommate?


It's the 20-something's way of saying she wants guy with money.

Or it's a 30-something's way of saying she wants a guy who is solvent enough to live by himself. Nothing wrong with that.


x2. Also, having a roommate can significantly cut down on sexy times. Maybe she is loud in bed and wants to some privacy- nothing wrong with that!!


I don't know. The thread was about Deal Breakers, not simply preferences. Would a mature adult really eliminate an otherwise eligible partner simply because he had a roommate when they met? Seems pretty stupid, and frighteningly shallow to me. Almost like eliminating a man because "he didn't have a really cool car" or something.


I disagree. And, some women can afford to be picky. I know that if I were on the fence with someone, and I met them and they had a roomate, that might be a deal breaker. It's hard to imagine waking up and spending a lazy Sunday making breakfast in a communal kitchen. Especially if you're older than your mid 20s.

Mental issues including depression, anxiety, anger management issues, etc.

Basically someone not crazy who does not have a diagnosis and those are hard to find after a certain age.

Mine:

1. People who make lists of trivial characteristics and eliminate otherwise decent people sight unseen based on those lists.
2. People who own three tined forks.

That's it.
