I’ve been hooked on this ‘He’s a 10 but’ trend and saw a list with over 80 examples. It’s wild how something small can make someone go from a 10 to a 2 real quick. What’s your go-to ‘He’s a 10 but’ line?
He’s a 10 but he calls his mom ‘mommy’… and wears flip flops everywhere. It’s like, dude, come on.

Lol, yes. Flip flops are one thing, but ‘He’s a 10 but he vapes’… automatic no from me. Also, ‘He’s a 10 but he follows random Instagram models who don’t follow him back.’ Why would anyone do that?
@Cedar
Right? And let’s not forget ‘He’s a 10 but he only showers once a week.’ I’m not trying to deal with that, no matter how attractive he is.
He’s a 9 but he uses ‘your’ instead of ‘you’re.’ I just can’t handle bad grammar. It’s such a small thing, but it ruins everything for me.
@Bex
Exactly. If he’s splitting the bill on the first date, that’s a red flag. I’d say that brings him down to like a 4. And don’t get me started on ‘He’s a 10 but he still uses Snapchat to communicate.’ We’re not in high school anymore.
He’s a 6 but he’s super organized. That easily bumps him up to an 8. Meanwhile, ‘He’s a 10 but his best friend is his ex’… that’s a no from me. Instant drop to a 3.

Couldn’t agree more. Or how about ‘He’s a 10 but he follows random girls on social media’? That’s just cringey. Honestly, ‘He’s a 10 but he’s always talking about himself’ brings him down fast too.
@Jean
Definitely. The self-centered thing is such a turnoff. I’d also say ‘He’s a 10 but he has poor hygiene.’ I’d rather be with someone who’s a 5 but takes care of themselves.
He’s a 5 but he’s really protective of you. That bumps him up to at least a 7. On the flip side, ‘He’s a 10 but he doesn’t respect his parents’… I don’t care how attractive he is, that’s a dealbreaker.
@Reese
Agreed. Also, ‘He’s a 10 but he calls other girls hot.’ That’s a no-go. And then there’s ‘He’s a 10 but he uses the 
emoji all the time.’ That’s just weird.

Yeah, the emoji is just… why? I’m also not a fan of ‘He’s a 10 but he refuses to post you on Instagram.’ Like, what’s the deal with that?
He’s a 10 but he constantly talks bad about other people. That’s such a red flag. Also, ‘He’s a 10 but he’s terrified of bugs.’ I get it, but come on.

Right? I’d say ‘He’s a 10 but he’s rude to service staff’ is another big one. That brings him down to like a 2. And ‘He’s a 10 but he never texts you back until 2-3 business days later’… yeah, no.
@Micah
Exactly. That delay in texting back is such a turnoff. Or ‘He’s a 10 but he asks ‘wyd’ every time he starts a conversation.’ No creativity whatsoever.
