Dating Must-Haves & DealbreakersDating Must-Haves & DealbreakersWhen it comes to finding love, we all have dealbreakersthat can turn a potential Mr. Right into a sudden Mr. Wrong. There are certain qualities that women envision that special someone will have, and deciding what you want from a man is a good exercise to do before entering into a relationship. And while it's important to figure out what you want in a man and what qualities are most essential to you, it's as equally important to identify your dealbreakers. This way, when a relationship comes along and something doesn't quite fit, it's easier for you to pinpoint what may not be working. So what are the most common dealbreakers among women?According to a survey by dating website eHarmony, here is a list of the least desired traits as well as the must-haves when it comes to finding love.Deal Breaker: Drug UseAlcohol and drug abuse are at the top of the "can't stand" list.
