What are the things you maybe encountered or are generally common that turn you off a lot?

Can share my story as an example. I’m very much a committed monogamous guy, and, for second relationships in a row (fourth total), the girl offers me a condom from an open pack.

They do not use them for their stuff, they literally just kept them for like a year from previous relationships (to which both girls admitted), which is not only a questionable approach to storing condoms (please do not store them in an open box in a random place), but also a giant turn off for me, almost like using sex toys from previous partner.

What are such things in your life? Maybe something that is generally accepted as normal, but makes you uncomfortable? Would love to hear stories from all sides.

    I think it’s normal to have oddball hangups, nobody gets experienced without some baggage, basically. You know this is a you problem so I don’t think it’s an anti-sexual-woman thing, more like an OCD thing, right? I think the answer here is to bring your own condoms, or go shopping for them together since it’s a planned thing.

      Yes, that’s what I did.

      I explained my issue to her in a gentle way and offered the condoms I bought myself. She immediately accepted it, to which I’m thankful.

      Also, right on spot, I do have diagnosed OCD.
