What could you never accept in a romantic partner?

For me, it would be somebody unkind, intolerant and purposely ignorant. I am simply not attracted to people who aren't decent humans, so not a huge issue, but curious to know.

It informs a lot of other things.... honesty, fidelity, loyalty, respect, accountability. They all have personal integrity as their foundation.

"Lying

Exactly, give me all the details, all the nasty, all the hurtful and leave nothing out.

Then I can deal and know there's nothing worse lurking to take me out at the knees.

Being betrayed / stabbed in the back is much harder to come back from.

I have no preconditions at all as regards a partner; what I will not accept from myself is intolerance selfishness and any form of dysfunctionality.

I do not judge others, but I used to treat myself harshly; but no longer.

South Side.

The problem is, in a romantic relationship, im usually quite blind to red flags, and accept things which i shouldnt(if i hadnt been overcome with the insanity of romance)

Im attracted to beauty, and held by intelligence. If these qualities dont exist, i wont be attracted to the woman at all.

Realistically, at my stage in life, the options for and the chances of getting a 'romantic partner' are extremely small, and from long experience of many different varieties of so-called 'relationships', the safest option is NSA liaisons that accommodate both party's sexual needs.

The only things you should try to change or try to amend slightly are faults that you perceive in your own behaviour.

Never try to change a bad trait that you perceive in anyone else; people are what they are and you have to put up with the whole package, warts and all.

If you cannot tolerate a trait, simply walk away.

"Not responding in kind such as phoning, buying dinner or coffees, not reciprocating and making same efforts in maintaining the relationship."

A little story...

When I started going out with my current husband, we were out one night with his friends and their girlfriends. I noticed that one of them paid for everything for himself and the girlfriend and hubby confirmed that she never ever paid for anything (despite having a full time job) and from what he had seen, never put much effort into the relationship.

Roll on a few hours and my tongue is loosening up. I ask the friend why he pays for everything, that it's unacceptable as far as I'm concerned. He was pretty speechless and I woke up the following morning thinking he'd never speak to me again.

A week later and we hear he has dumped the girlfriend. Roll on a few weeks and he has a lovely new girlfriend who he goes on to marry, have kids with, and they're still very happy (as far as I'm aware).

Maybe I was wrong to speak up, but I still take full credit for that happy marriage
