“The Ick”

[Swipeupyouguys]

One of my exes told me it was ‘old people hand holding’ if you didn’t interlock your fingers

Yeah i am Not a fan of hand holding in general. I need to be freeeee! Maybe it just reminds m of being a child, my parents used to hold my hands that way in case i ran off, as children do. But yeah, men always want to interlock the fingers and clamp down. Then i start to feel the pulse and eww. Ick ignition started.

I've deffo got a blokes pube stuck inbetween my teeth during a blowjob more than once (with the same guy)

I deffo agree with the one about people who only eat beige food/5 year old food!

Totally - just try something new!

 

[it’s not been changed?!]

Check out @theladymanc Instagram stories tonight.... Some bad bad date stories which are making me laugh

She’s private

 

[Mooordgirl]

Having read most of this thread I am amazed that the human race is still going! It’s just as well men don’t read this or they would never attempt to date again!

Anyway, as a guy my “icks” are as follows -

Women who smoke
Women who wear far too much make up
Fake boobs
Women who swear constantly during normal conversation
Trout pouts
Millions of selfies on their insta page.
Wearing thongs when you have a very large arse
White tights
Pierced nostril or tongue
Bits of toilet tissue stuck to your flaps
Faking orgasms
Those huge bizarre false finger nails
Getting so drunk you fall over or vomit
Bitchiness
Shallowness
Expecting us to know exactly how you like to be touched without telling us and quietly getting the hump when we don’t get it right.
Fussy eaters
Obsessive shoe purchasing
Chavvy tats (don’t mind classy ones)
Vocal Tory supporters
Ladettes
Flat nipples
Hairy legs
Inappropriate use of dentistry during oral sex
Not checking that the tampon has flushed down the loo
Not checking that you have left any floaters in the loo
Narcissists
Women who get arsey with you and expect you to know what you have done wrong when you haven’t a clue.
Women who complain about the way men treat women and then sleep with other women’s partners anyway

I guess that will do for now

Am i totally ignorant - I've never heard of flat nipples?! What is it??

Aaah no I didn't realise, sorry! I wonder if I'm allowed to screen shot and post

Edit to add they've got 117k followers so I presume they just accept followers quickly and you can unfollow after viewing the stories

Describes himself as 'addictive.' I think he's being a little optimistic.

Hubistric tw@t

 

[Pot2PeeIn]

Adults who have daytime “naps” give me the ick. (Unless they work unusual shift patterns or have a newborn baby or some other good reason for it).

Enraging

 

[Sailorontheseasea]

out of interest how to they actually pair you for married at first sight? Cause I figured it was science (never watched it) but then surely they also want good tele?

They pair people on “core values” and “qualities” and obviously what each person wants in another person surface level, they say there’s loads of psychology behind it buuuuut yes mainly it is for good telly as some of the pairings are terrible

A guy I’ve been dating sometimes goes really off if I take longer than half an hour to reply. He will send me messages like ‘busy then’ ‘where are you’ when I reply saying what I’ve been doing he will reply ‘where have you been’ ‘no worries I will leave you to it then’ this is even when he’s at the gym so shouldn’t be too focused on what I’m doing when he’s busy himself??
What do you all think this means?

It’s really hard when we’re together he’s lovely and shows no red flags? I really like him and not sure what to do..

I went on date #3 today.
The guy had mentioned he kept guinea pigs and I naturally assumed outside, in a hutch.
Oh no.... the smell that greeted me as I entered his flat will stay with me for some time he keeps them in his living room 24/7
I petted his animals out of politeness, but when he attempted to rip my clothes off I explained I wasn't in the mood and made a hasty exit.
I don't know if I can get past this to carry on dating him. The Ick!!!!!!!!!!!

Trying to rip your clothes off on date 3??

 

[Mulholland Drive]

Hairy men, or so I thought. My husband is hairy and it’s only getting worse. When we first met it was a make or break issue but clearly love is blind

I hate men who follow their women around and join for girlie days out/lunches etc

And no socks in shoes

My ex girlfriend was quite hairy, especially under the pits, arms and "down below". Not something I'd encountered before, and did put me off briefly.

I did ask if she'd considered shaving etc. but she said it makes her come out in a rash.

Yeah it's car crash tv let's face it do they actually get married like full on official wedding, need a lawyer for a divorce thing? and do they show if it works out or not?

 

[CherryAcid]

Ohhh or those fitness guys who shave their arms, chest and back and then they have ingrown hair and there's a million red inflamed dots all over - whyyyyyyyy?

I get it if they are competing as it shows off the muscles better but thats some upkeep.

 

[Sailorontheseasea]

I think they are legally married but with some clause to say they can divorce without being actually “divorced” I’m not entirely sure how it works but they’ve only had one couple stay together in the whole show I think soooo that’s a lotta divorces if it is real

 

[petitspois]

That is an instant no.

I dont like a gap in the front teeth either. Gives me the creeps.

me too. *shudder

 

[Bobbleowl90]

This tweet gave me the inspo to start this thread. If you type in her username and “the ick” in twitter it should come up. Hilarious

There was another a few months ago and it was the most random things ever it was hilarious!

edit to say I found the tweet but it’s since been deleted! Was small things like them having astmha or hiccuping it was an amazing list of hates tbf.

 

[wotdidijustwatch]

So said guy I was ignoring has now decided that he will ask how i am like this...."Are you okay?!?!?!" "How are you?!?!"......

Just block him

 

[birdiefly246]

Just catching up with Married at First Sight (UK) on channel 4 and the guy said to his new wife “yes I bagged myself a fitty” and I swear my whole vagina went up inside itself. Actual ick.

out of interest how to they actually pair you for married at first sight? Cause I figured it was science (never watched it) but then surely they also want good tele?

 

[CarrieW24]

This thread is comedy gold!

Okay, my turn!

- wearing faux fur slipper boots (his mum had bought for him, no less)
- kissing me and staring deeply into my eyes and then saying "hi" (ugh excuse me while I vomit)
- getting his guitar out and playing along to a song while also attempting to stare into my eyes
- having to tip toe/ jump to close windows
- asking me if I wanted to stay a bit longer and "play board games" (after I stayed the night but we didn't have sex because he couldn't get it up)
- watching him use hair straighteners

Reader, I cringe

I loved all your points, I'm curious to hear the actual stories! Was it all from one guy or was it different guys? Start with the one staring at you and saying "hi"

 

[Pink blancmange]

Is that his age? 35???

It is

 

[Chablis1]

I’ve only ever got the proper ick once, and it was over something ridiculous

matched with someone on tinder, asked me out after a day and I thought why not, date was in 5 days time. Messaged for two days and on the third morning he messaged saying “morning mischief” and it make me feel ILL! Don’t call me mischief I’m not 5 year old girl

Hahaaa
