Women Open Up On Qualities That Are Major Turn Off In Men But Men Mistakenly Assume They Are Appealing

It is very common that people sometimes attribute their negative personality traits as positive and the situation at times ends up with a need for a harsh reality check with one person dumping the other due to these negative traits.

All thanks to Reedit forum, women are sharing the toxic personality traits of men that are considered unattractive and which unfortunately men think of as appealing.

According to a study of 383 adults, Gilles Gignac, a senior lecturer at the University of Western Australia, found that ‘intelligence’ was the second most highly ranked trait behind ‘kind and understanding.’

However, it is imperative to point out here that while 'intelligence' is considered an attractive trait but there is a fine line between intelligence and a person who acts like 'Mr know it all.'

One Redditor’s response fired up 6.5K fellow users. They said: ‘“Knowing” everything. Sure, intelligence is nice, but it’s f***ing transparent when you start bullsh****ng just so you don’t have to admit there’s something you don’t know. Especially if I do know it.’

Here are some personality traits that make men undesirable for women and for men who are willing to up their game, there is no harm in going through this list.

Men who show off their wealth

Reddit users say that it is very easy to spot a man who always brags about his finances.  

According to one study, men who flaunt their money and luxury cars make poor potential long-term partners. Dr Daniel Kruger of the University of Michigan suggests that ‘men may simply be investing in these cars to try to attract mates, for a short-term brief sexual relationship...’

‘If this is their motive, women can tell the difference.’

One woman called it out as an ‘instant turnoff.’ She said, ‘There’s some type of woman that this will impress - but it sure as hell would not be me. Tell me what kind of books or music you’re into, food, and hell - even tv shows or movies. That would be so much more interesting than bragging about how loaded you are.’

The one-up man

One-up man is those who always undermine other people's accomplishments and their personal stories. Competition is only healthy when a person is willing to acknowledge the other person and does not lose himself in constant comparison. 

In a response that racked up 14K upvotes and was by far, a notable negative trait according to users, ‘The one up man. Almost always dominates the conversation and one-ups everyone else’s experiences and replies. Shows me you’re immature and can’t hold a conversation without the focus being on you.’

The indecisive one

Another unattractive and negative trait commonly found in men is indecisiveness that ultimately becomes a source of frustration for their female partners.

When asked what the least attractive trait in a man is, she replied: ‘Leaving every decision to me.’

Some guys may see it as a way to look or seem agreeable, but lacking an opinion on every decision is off-putting.

‘If a man is my partner, then I want his input on decisions, even if they’re just small ones like what movie to watch or what to have for dinner. Shrugging and saying, “I don’t know. You decide,” all the time is not going to make me happy. It’s lazy and it makes me feel more like a guy’s mother than his partner.’

One user fired back with a genius psychological trick to solve the dilemma:

‘If your partner does this don’t ask them where they want to eat, just say, “I’m taking you out to eat…guess where?” And then where ever they guess is most likely the place they wanted to go.’
