Dealbreakers

What would be a dealbreakers or a series of dealbreakers for you if you were in a relationship?

For me:

Violence

Constant lying

Adultery

Racism and homophobia and general narrow-mindedness and ignorance

Immaturity

Misogyny

Disrespectful, ill-mannered and having bad manners

Sense of entitlement

Pushover/doesn't stand up for me, himself or our relationship

Arrogance/condescending nature

No work ethic

All of the above plus bad manners, wanting children, poor work ethic and lack of desire to travel

Dishonesty I think, then maybe disrespect (there's a few things that would come under here so I'll just say this).

You can probably work on most things or at least compromise. I know someone above said wanting children, I'm the opposite cos I want children (not yet though), I'm 23 and if I had a girlfriend who was 18-23 and didn't want children I wouldn't not date her cos of it. I might ask her again in a few years... I know loads of people who said they didn't want kids and are now proud parents.

I think this is more of a personal one than a general deal breaker? I mean, I do want to have kids of my own at some point in life.

I think that's all of them for me. I have a thing against pet names too - can't stand being called 'baby' but it wouldn't be a dealbreaker per se.
Smoking (anything regularly)
Not being able to hold an intelligent conversation
Lazy

Surely no man/woman is that terrible, are they? I mean, have you ever come across someone who possesses ALL these undesirable qualities?
