I just want to know what's wrong with not being licensed to drive and therefore not owning a car?

Deal breakers for me:  
1- They are recently deceased (well, maybe not if the body is still warm).
2- They aren’t in the right age bracket.  Old or young enough to reproduce.
3- . . . and as a human if they can’t do all of the following; “change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently or die gallantly. Because specialization is for insects."

Thanks to Robert A. Heinlein for that list BTW.

YHMA, lol I was just asking posters in general, as many listed a man not having a car/license as a deal breaker! I've never had one for the sole reason that driving was never a high priority for me and I am not prepared to take on that type of added financial burden.

eta: the smoking part I understand and it's a topic I will not discuss  : )

Sounds like you are looking for a domme. And, yes have done all (well sailboat not ship, but it can't be all that different) except the (physically) dying part.  Have occasionally thought it might be worth switching for you. But  then my reality kicks in, and i realize you would likely have me mopping floors instead of doing all the fun stuff.

I smoke up to a pack and a half a day, so I guess a deal breaker would be someone who couldn't handle that, though I very much understand why some people can't. And, since my husband nor my cats smoke, I do smoke outside. But if it was just for a play partner, I could probably put down the nicotine for a few hours.......

In all honesty, I have often wondered how it is that non-smokers can date us smokers. I love smoking, but if I were to quit, I think I'd find kissing a smoker kind of, well, gross.

How DO you folks do that, anyhow? We smokers love you for that, absolutely, but I do wonder....

I also aside from the health issues of a smoker, wouldn't deal w/ith the waste of money I consider buying cigarettes to be.


My dad used to be a smoker, and yeah he said people who smoke smell way worse to him now as an x smoker, than they did before he ever smoked or dureing his smoking days.


Thing is, People who smoke generally still tend to smell like smoke, since it permeates EVERYTHING, specially if you smoke in doors.  And honestly more than the health risks, the biggest offense to me is the pure  horrendous stink of the smell of  it, stake cig smoke stink is also way worse than fresh almost. As I can attest to personally, since when ever Daddy takes his mom anywhere the car REEKS for weeks, cause she smokes tons of ciggies and then leaves them in the ash tray and he doesn't clean them out for quite sometime sometimes.

And the few times I am around my aunt, I can smell the smoke on her too, even if she hasn't smoked in a while, it's all over her clothing and  her hair. When I rode a cab to therapy and Kenny smoked, even though I had a bath just 2 hours earlier, I REEKED of his cigarettes just cause I was in the cab for 25 minutes while he puffed away.
I remember one time I went to go get my eyebrows and lip waxed and the lady had just come back from smoking and her hands smelled kinda nasty and I felt it'd be rude to say anything so I just put up with her  stinky hands in my face.
