They say that when you start to get romantically involved with someone, you need to figure out their values. Stuff like their religion or politics. And that's definitely important to hash out if you pursue a relationship. But sometimes people overlook the importance of "I don't like how she sounds weird when she sneezes" or "He's super into fly fishing and I just can't wrap my head around it." Whether or not these observations actually should keep people from connecting on a deeper level, in practice, they totally do. It's hard to want to get to know someone when you can't get over the fact that their favorite board game is Monopoly. Like, what's your deal? These shouldn't be the kinds of things that stop people from finding "true love" or whatever. But it does. It does every day. How can you even wake up next to someone when you can't stand the way they pronounce "expresso."
Here are some terrifically petty reasons people stopped dating someone. And here are some petty reasons people were rejected.
