1. They Have Bad Breath: As if talking to someone   with bad breath isn't bad enough, kissing someone with bad breath is unbearable.   Bad breath may just be a case of their onion-ed up Subway sandwich, or it could   be a more serious case like halitosis or another periodontal disease. This number   one turnoff (for 26%) can also be a gentle reminder to you, no man wants to   kiss a woman with bad breath!

2. They Appear Unkempt: Okay, so the Ryan Gosling   messy hairdo is not what this means. This could mean yellow teeth, stained shirts,   nose hair, unkempt feet and nails and not clean shaven or groomed. A woman wants   a man who minds enough to take care of himself. This was the biggest turnoff   for 26% of singles surveyed.

3. They Are Overweight: Being overweight doesn't   reflect someone's personality or admirable attributes. But a man or woman definitely   doesn't get turned on by someone who's overweight. Twenty-five percent of men   and women surveyed thought this was the biggest turnoff.

4. They Smoke: For 22% smoking was an instant   turnoff. Smoking also ties into bad breath as it could be a cause. In addition   to the stigma associated with smoking, the actual act of smoking requires time   away from a date to go smoke outside.

5. They Don't Follow the Golden Rule: There is   nothing more unattractive than being rude or dismissive of those serving you   coffee, lunch or dinner, driving you in a cab, and so on. Remember the Golden   Rule when you're out with a new companion; trust us, your date will notice and   react positively.
