Compared to when you were between eighteen to twenty-five, have your relationship 'deal breakers' changed? If so, what have you added/deleted from the list?

I don't know. I never really had a list.

Same Here. I prefer thin athletic body types, but have shared a bed with big women & men. I like young men & women but have shared a bed with women older than my mother and my male partner was five years older than me.
So, I have preferences but apparently not deal breakers.

Re: Deal breakers: then and now
I've only ever had two.
One is cigarettes. I just can't be with a smoker.
Second one is bad sex. If the sex is unsatisfying, we can be life long friends, but that's it.
Fortunately, I don't have to worry about that stuff now.

Oh yeah, I loathe cigarettes. Both my long-term companions smoked and it was really annoying to me and I said I would never go with a smoker again.
But guess what? When you meet someone with so many other attributes you like even that is not a deal breaker.
(well chain smoker yeah, but normal controllable habit - smoking away from me OK).

Eh. Basically the same. I'm probably a little less anal about things like age and body type today than I was then, but not by much.

Not really I was always pretty much open to whatever it was that stuck my fancy at the time.

Back then it was all about shallow things like looks, age and money. Now I still hold on to some of those shallow things but personality and life goals greatly factor in now more than they used to.

It hasn't changed much. I would still like for you to be gainfully employed.

I don't think I have changed much. I may have casually dated a person who didn't meet my "wish list" qualifications. But being serious with anyone meant they were motivated and had goals and good hygiene.

tmontyb mentioned smokers. My wife smokes and heaven forbid I ever lose her because of it, I don't see myself getting seriously involved with another one.

You're probably right.

Re: Deal breakers: then and now
My preferences are basically the same as they have ALWAYS been. The only thing that's changed in the age range. At 18 I remember not wanting a guy that was over 23 (altho I broke that rule more than once). Now I'm 27 so of course that's not the case anymore.
