1. Lack of Honesty

Trust is key in any relationship, and if you can't be honest with your partner, you don't have much of a foundation to build on.

2. Excessive Self-Centeredness

It's great to love yourself, but constantly putting yourself first can be a turn-off for men.

3. Pretending to be Dumb

Men don't want to date someone who pretends to be less intelligent than they are.

4. Pretending to be Clumsy

Some men don't find it cute when women pretend to be clumsy for attention.

5. Being on Your Phone All the Time

Men don't want to feel like they're competing with your phone for your attention.

6. Playing Hard to Get

While some men enjoy the chase, others find it frustrating when a woman plays hard to get.

7. Lying About Your Wants

If you know what you want, don't be afraid to speak up.

8. Narrow-Mindedness

Men are attracted to open-minded, accepting women.

9. Being Too Open-Minded

On the other hand, some men find it unattractive when a woman is too open-minded, to the point of being indecisive.

10. Helplessness

Men like women who are independent and can take care of themselves.

11. Treating Social Media Like a Job

If social media is your job, then treat it as such, but if it's not, it's ok to take a break from it every once in a while.

12. Not Reciprocating

Men want to feel valued and appreciated in a relationship.

13. Not Complimenting Them

Men like to hear compliments just as much as women do.

14. Not Being Real

Men want to be with someone who is genuine and authentic.

15. Being Disrespectful

Treating people with disrespect is never attractive, and men will be turned off by a woman who is rude or dismissive.

16. Comparing you to their Ex

Men don't want to be constantly compared to their partner's ex, even if it's supposed to be a compliment. It can make them feel insecure and like they're not being seen as their own person.

Overall, men want to be with someone who is honest, respectful, and genuine. So, be true to yourself, and don't try to be someone you're not. You'll attract the right person who will appreciate you for who you are. And remember, everyone has different preferences and different things that turn them off, so don't take it personally if someone isn't interested in you. There's someone out there who will love and accept you for who you are.
