I hate articles on what turns men off...so what? You are who are...if you need to change yourself for a man, he's not the one.

No.9 I dont think so he could b such a good person a bad spelling doesnt have to do anything with ones personality.

Okay so I actually like salad. So when I go on a date I'll be like "I'm not eating salad to seem healthy. I actually just happen to like salad".
