I’m all for giving others the benefit of the doubt—being understanding, forgiving the occasional misstep, and letting things slide when possible. After all, none of us are perfect, and if I can show a little kindness in this cruel world, I’ll gladly try.
That said, there’s a definite limit to how far any judgment-free zone can stretch.
These Redditors know exactly what I mean. Recently, they shared the things people do that instantly make them unattractive, and honestly, they’ve made some pretty solid points. Scroll down to see their takes, and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!

Be unkind to animals, the less fortunate, or customer service workers. It’s a literal deal breaker for me.
ETA: Pretentious snobs that attempt to hijack completely unrelated posts to push their beliefs or politics under the false pretense of “humor”.

The least attractive thing someone can do is treat others with disrespect or disregard their feelings. No matter how charming someone may seem, when they show a lack of empathy, it completely diminishes their appeal.

A one upper. Or someone who always has to make things about them selves. I have this thing where I can instantly identify them and subsequently not be able to respect them or their opinion right away.
