Your forgivable male flaws?

The amount of short comments are murdering the lurkers that think we reject them because they're not a tall Chad.

My husband and I are both gamers, so that doesn’t bother me. Like another commenter said, as long as he’s not a porn addicted neckbeard (and he isn’t).

Also height for me too. I’m tall and we are about the same height (he’s 5’9” and I’m 5’8”). Even back when I was dating I actually liked short guys, but they had a problem with MY height.

Edit: watch out ladies, some loser is DMing like “yOu ThInK hEiGhT iS a FLAW?! EXPLAIN!” Lurkers, don’t be fucking obtuse. We are talking about what are considered “flaws” in the dating culture. Men themselves have insisted to me their height is a detriment despite ME reassuring them (especially online) so you can shove it with your disingenuous bullshit.

like others are saying, height, as long he isn’t bitter and insecure and incel about it

Fatt3stAveng3r · 2020-06-11T11:04:15+00:00

Height. I'm dating a short man and he is absolutely amazing, wouldn't trade him for anything.

I can't think of any "flaws" that are ok. Usually if there's something you note as a flaw, it tends to be a fatal one.

Hennyyenni · 2020-06-11T09:01:14+00:00

I don’t care about height. I’m Latina and I prefer Latino guys (as long as they aren’t PR/DR) as they tend to pay for everything and are very hardworking and are very family oriented. As long as they aren’t machista or fat, I don’t mind shortness at all and latino guys tend to be short AF.

Edit: Latino guys have a lot of sexism but they don’t abandon their kids and they support their aging parents when they’re older, which I think is HV, but Puerto Rican and Dominican guys will live off their parents til their parents die, especially their mamas which I think is super LVM. Of course this is a generalization but y’all already know I don’t mean ALL.

bqluoeoedn · 2020-06-11T06:44:36+00:00

Anxiety as long as he can come back to a center and always is honest and communicative. Because me too lol.

Height isn’t an issue, long as there is a little tiptoe to kiss him action going haha.

Being a little stuck is okay. We all get in ruts. We all get sad. We all get depressed. But please move through it and don’t rut in it for years like a dirty feral pig who is mad at everyone.

I like a good balance of squish with some muscle and healthiness.

catsuramen · 2020-06-11T14:40:20+00:00

Height, small penis size, and fitness (to a certain extent)

Some males just get handed the short end of the stick, but it's what they make with it in life.

As long as he is healthy and isn't overweight, a little bit of flab here and there is okay.

HottPinkSlug · 2020-06-11T15:38:36+00:00

I don't mind kids if he's a good father and the situation with the ex is normal. I love kids and probaby missed my opportunity to have my own, so weekend kids I didn't have to birth might even be 👍

veruscka · 2020-06-11T14:08:19+00:00

Being divorced is a dealbreaker for many, but not for me. As long as he doesn’t badmouth his ex and it was an amicable split, I don’t see the problem. I’m also okay with them having kids as long as they aren’t like babies/toddlers. If a man is a good dad, there is a good chance he’ll be fun, want to cook for you, be protective, etc which I’m very into!

GalactoseGal · 2020-06-11T18:49:15+00:00

Penis size. The best sex I ever had was with someone very average who knew what to do. The guys I've been with who had big dicks were all obsessed with how big they were and if anyone else was as big/bigger 🙄

rinabean · 2020-06-11T13:30:21+00:00

None?

If you don't consider it a flaw, it's not one. Some women are into short men, good for them, but then they're not really overlooking his "flaw", are they? It's their type, or maybe they don't care at all about height either way, and they're happy. I only like tall men though

I don't think any of us could ever find someone 100% perfect for us, but it doesn't mean that the 99% perfect ones are "flawed" in any way. It's quite a strong word really isn't it? I wouldn't want to overlook a real flaw.

2020-06-11T11:22:20+00:00

I'm in the boat that we're all human. I'll forgive flaws that I would want forgiven if I displayed them. So pretty much anything that isn't malicious or would affect the quality of our lives.

I'm short. I have anxiety. Some days I really just want things to be easy (like today, which is probably why I'm mentioning it) Im late sometimes, I don't make a habit of it but it happens. Sometimes laundry stays hung up for three days too long. Sometimes I forget to call someone back. I have male childhood friends that I wouldn't drop for any relationship

No shade but I've seen people on here ghost/leave for everything above. There's a lot that I won't tolerate, but basic human error I can handle. Most days 🙄

idiosyncraticg1 · 2020-06-11T15:48:27+00:00

Height, muscle or % body fat (I won’t mind a bit of a chub tbh), most jobs, no car (I live in a big city so most people don’t have cars)

AyemHerself · 2020-06-11T19:03:17+00:00

Going way against the grain here, but I can tolerate light smoking.

keep_my_stuff · 2020-06-11T21:21:47+00:00

I don't care if he makes less money than me or is less accomplished in his career, as long as he is not resenting me for it.

Same about being short.

I also would probably forgive sex blunders due to inexperience or lack of stamina or physical limitations

redfarmmmmm · 2020-06-12T12:02:09+00:00

I dont mind guys who dont dress well but i strongly prefer guys with born good genes. Tall, slim with broad shouler with young looking face.

AppropriateHoney6 · 2020-06-11T13:45:59+00:00

For me:

being more contained; I don’t mind if someone isn’t an open book or overly expressive in their emotions and thoughts to everyone they meet

-being more reserved/quiet...not the Center of attention in the room

CassieGreen85 · 2020-06-11T22:09:04+00:00

Drinking, as long as it's only light and social drinking, no drunk/passing out/black out drunk, and it's not part of the grocery list, I'm ok with a bit of drinking.

I don't drink or smoke, and bar my face, my skin is fucking baby smooth. I expect almost/the same dedication to care for one's body, both for attractiveness and health.

fernprincess · 2020-06-11T11:48:13+00:00

I’m okay with a bit old, a bit fat, a bit ugly, and a bit boring, lol. I’m attracted to a person’s brain and personality more than their looks. I have trouble trusting young, good looking men because they are usually lazy, entitled, and treat women poorly as they’ve always gotten by just on their looks... that and the majority of younger attractive men in my area are broke, single, alcoholic, and mentally unwell.

ChristianGirl93 · 2020-06-11T18:45:05+00:00

Learning disabilities- as long as he doesn’t act like it’s crippling or use it as an excuse. He’d forget little things like stopping half way to check to see he had his wallet but always remembered the important things.
