Top 20 Dealbreakers Of 2016

As Carrie Bradshaw once said, “I don’t pick the wrong guys… They pick me.” What Carrie didn’t mention are the universal warning signs of “a wrong guy.” When red flags are thrown, it is your job to stay away. No woman likes a man who disrespects his mother or is rude to the waiter. And while this has been true since the beginning of mankind; the deal breakers of today are what’s important. Because let’s be honest. If, “I’m not a big reader” is followed up with, “all girls are the same,” – odds are you can do better.

12. His favorite recreational activities include any of the following: vaping, bird watching or parkour.

17. He refuses to try sushi or froyo – or anything that is not a burger.

18. He believes the peak of cinematography is a tie between "American Pie" and "Sharknado."
