This week on Cherry Bomb, the women discuss the things they simply won't put up with from a prospective partner. For some, it's smoking; for others, it's the lack of shaving, PDAs or even curly hair.
From the superficial to core values, what are the deal breakers that make you say yes or no to dating someone? Do all the rules go out the window for the right person? And on this week’s question, what to do when your partner is taking advantage of you financially. If you have questions you'd like addressed on Cherry Bomb, email them to cherrybombtv@yahoo.com.

Pervasive herbal smoking.....LMAO!!
Great vlog ladies. some
Great vlog ladies. some very interesting topics.
As far as deal breakers i think everyone has gone back on something they thought was a turn off but still dated that person because somtimes it doesnt matter in the end. and like yall said especially if they're hot:)
And I do agree that you should tell a potential about important things like not wanting to get married, ect. because time you put in any relationship you cant get back.
number one deal breaker.
Tatum is adorable
The way Nikki says "kitten"
The way Nikki says "kitten" is so cute! And Dalila got really deep on that whole stingy tipper thing! Damn girl!!
My deal breaker would probably be a stone femme as talked about in the last vlog.
:)
Oh my god, I'm with you on the way Nikki says 'kitten', it's so adorable. There have to be more excuses for her to say it, seriously!
I only have one major deal breaker, and that would be anti-vegetarian views. I don't mind if she does eat meat etc. since I don't think it's anything to do with me, but I can't deal with not getting the same consideration back. I hate having to justify myself at every meal.
hey now, herb haters...
My deal breaker is if she's not okay with me smoking the, uh, organics. Luckily my gf and i are totally in agreement in that department. Everyone's got their vices, ladies ;)
nice vlog!
Very good very good. As
Very good very good.
As a curly haired person i'd go with another, and i hant had a velcro incident yet.
Even though some regard smoking as a turn off it's a good way to get chatting to folk ootside of pubs and clubs. it's the social aspect that makes it so hard to quit!
Love it
Thanks for this vlog -- I am enjoying it immensely. Great topics, good banter.
As for deal-breakers, I think I'm less likely to focus on those than I am deal-'makers'. On the spectrum of relationships, I tend to be on the 'happily independent' side, so I guess it's more of an issue of what would compel me toward a relationship, rather than get me out of one. :)
Tatum
I love how she always brings it back to "well, if they're really hot!"....haha, too cute!
Thanks for another great blog ladies! Happy Friday!
If you're not trying to make something better, then as far as I can tell, you are just in the way.

Hmmm ...
Deal breakers .... hmmm ... definitely if she is a smoker, a drug-user, a conservative, a libertarian, or strongly religious ... those would be the ones that popped to mind immediately that I definitely would not date.

Addition to tipping..
at a restaurant. If a person is rude towards the waiter/waitress such as asking for many things without being polite, having a food "temper tantrum", these are signs of a person who has no regard for another.
So far my deal breakers are: snoring (I cannot stand it!!! UGH!), smoking, fighting/confrontation/causing a scene for no reason, does not want to work, diva quality (assumes anyone should cater to them all the time).
P.S: I agree with Gloria on PDA, for me I have to be in the mood to show affection in public.
Cherry Bomb is great! Since last week it has become a favorite vlog of mine. Thanks.
Hotness exemption
If they are really hot...
That was funny.
What a lovely Vlog.
Hilarious as usual
Hilarious as usual ladies.Had me laughing out loud,although I was distracted by Dalila"s cleavage:D
Tatum the curly hair thing was too much(lol)
SAME HERE
I too was distracted by her cleavage. I thought one of them were going to pop out, and I was pondering if she had on a low cut bra or something like that hahahaaha :-)
I love this vlog!
Hot!
LOL oh yes if their totally hot it exempts them from any deal breakers! Loved the vlog ladies it was great and really funny keep up the awesome topics.
I don't really have that many deal breakers i think my only two are; flirting with my friends or even saying one of them is hot, because if they have to tell me they find my friend hot i think i know who'd they rather be with, and if they smoke, i really hate the smell
Deal Breakers
Thank you!
Can we get double helpings please.
I love these girls "Girl Talk" so much .. I want double helpings of Cherry

My deal breakers.
I guess I'm really picky but there are some things that are huge turn offs for me. Some examples:
Drugs/cigarettes-Gross.
Partiers/clubbers-I'm a pretty mellow person so I'm not attracted to people who like to go to clubs every Saturday or whatever. If you'd rather go to a party where you can drink and flirt with other girls than go see a movie with me, I'm done.
People who are in their own world-This has a bit to do with bad tippers. As someone who has worked in retail, I can't stand people who are in their own little world and don't give a crap if they're in someone's way or if you're at a restaurant and you feel the need to be picky or bother the waitress every chance you get. Ew. Disrespect/selfishness is gross.
Overconfidence/cockyness/players-I LOVE girls who are physically attractive and don't seem to know it. Like when you pay them a compliment they are genuinely flattered. Girls who think they know everything or think they are better than everyone else are absolute turnoffs. Innocence is yummy.
People without goals-Now, by goals I don't mean something like becoming the president or something. Even small things like wanting to exercise for 30 minutes every morning or saving up enough money to buy something special. It just shows that your passionate about SOMETHING and you're pushing yourself to become a better person.
People who don't like taking it slow-The last guy I dated (groan) asked me within about a week of dating about my experiences sexually. The deal breaker for me was when he tried to kiss me when my family was in the next room and I told him I was uncomfortable. His response? "My last girlfriend didn't mind." Ugh. Taking it slow adds mystery to the relationship. If you give it up on your first date, odds are you're probably not going to be with that person for a long time.
Ladies, thanks again for yet another great vlog.
Dalila
Deal Breakers...
Good Deal!!!
Great show!!!
My Deal breakers
1. Cheapness
2. Arrogance
3. Loves to test me and piss me off for fun
4. I don't like being pushed to do anything I don't wanna do
5. Any serious addiction (does not include smoking)
I don't think its right to not wanna be with someone because they are not out, don't like PDA or smoke... of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I just think that if someoen doesnt like PDA it doesn't necessarily mean they are hiding. I dont like pda simply because when two people show affection infront of me I feel uncomfortable therefore I dont like doing it infront of others.
Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "Hm i think ill squeeze those dangly things and drink whatever comes out."
gloria + dealbreakers
deal breakers...
My deal breaker would have to be foul odors..Im all about being fresh and clean and there are absolutely no exceptions to this rule!!!
Dalila has been looking really
deliciousgood in the past few vlogs..that was so random i know but it just had to be said.What a great way to start
What a great way to start the weekend. I absolutely love this vlog. And Gloria is Awesome!! She kinda reminds me of my friend from college.
Definite deal breaker is the smoking. Smoking puts you in the "Friend Zone". And of course, agreeing with Insidelookingout, good personal hygiene is a must. Yet I can't understand why anyone would want to walk around dirty.
but....
if they are really hot....
that had me in stitches. every.single.time. :D
loved the vlog as usual. best vlog on AE rght now (imo). but Tatum, the thing with the curly hair ... really??? seriously??? I dont get it....

Great vlog as usual. You
Great vlog as usual. You ladies are fantastic.
Hmm... Deal breakers... I think as a vegan, it would be very hard for me to be with a meat eater, or someone who isn't an animal lover or that doesn't care about animal rights. It's just a really sensitive issue for me.
I agree
I can't date people who eat meat either.
More deal breakers...
Ladies who mumble (even though I am guilty...).
Ladies who have no respect for old folks, children and animals. (Gloria was bang on!)
Ladies who don't drink alcohol or drink too much.
I love you ladies!! Great
I love you ladies!! Great vlog as every friday TGIF!!
Deal breakers for me will be..somebody that smoke, dirty teeths, problems seekers, drama seekers and someone that dont like to do sports at all.
Kisses ladies!
No goals
My biggest deal breaker is if she doesn't have any goals or ambitions. Perfect example is this girl that I was sort of interested in, she dropped out of school, which is fine College isn't for everybody. But, now she's working in a book store which she hates, and is considering becoming a yoga instructor -she's never even done yoga-, she's also considering learning judo- for no reason what so ever. She's just crusing around and that bothers the shit out of me. i need a woman who has some idea of where she wants to be in the future,

but if they're really hot...
Tatum is smokin' hot! (What's up with the poor lighting on her?)
This segment is a great addition to the AE vlogs. I crave it like I crave Brunch with Bridget.

Dalila
Dalila thanks for creating this vlog. It has become one of my favorites.
I could not wait to get off of work to watch.
My deal breakers would be excessive drinking ,arrogance, butch women, drug addicts and bad hygiene. Just about everything else we could probably work out.
By the way Dalila, you should have been on the Hot 100.
seasons
Is this the first season of this show?
"But if they're hot..."
I love Nikki. She needs to say 'kitten' more often!!
lovestruck
I think she may be combinding deal breakers with pet peeves. You may not find a certain trait desirable in a partner, but if they're hot and you're extremely attracted to her (or him for bisexuals) then all goes out the window. You get lovestruck.
That's what I think she means.

Thanks
I think I see what you're getting at now.
Although she said something like that in this weeks episode too.
I'm losing (what little) respect I had for Tatum..
Hmmm
This was fun to watch. Damn you ladies are petty.
I personally do not really care about all these small things....and when I do, it usually means I am just not that into them.
Has to care about old people, dogs and children...really?

For the Roses
Hmm. A huge deal-breaker
Women you Fall for
I the first the woman was involved with was the complete opposite of everything I was interest in a woman.
Say dating way too complicated
Women can be so manipulative

Deal breakers
You are not the only one. I find most of what Tatum says is weird but in an amusing way. It's probably a British thing :)
I'm surprised that in exclusion of bisexuals, no one has mentioned A MAN.
Definite deal-breakers to me: people who are psychopaths, pedophiles, zoophiles, cannibals or have similar psycological disorders.
So yeah, only serious problems like this would be a deal-breaker to me. Or being disrespectful to my family is an uncompromisable deal-breaker, too. Other than that, smoking, arrogance, extreme introvertedness, overt religiousness, etc. do bother me but I have to see how things go. And like Tatum says "If they are hot...", everything should be forgiven :D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
""My love life is terrible. The last time I was inside a woman was when I visited the Statue of Liberty."
Hey!
But yeah, I'm glad someone agrees with me, even just a little bit =]
Animals
I have 7 pets, so if you are not an animal lover that is a deak breaker.
They were here before you, and they will be here when you are gone!
And smoking of any kind is a total deal breaker. I hate to do that but the smell makes me dizzy, it stinks, and of course it's a health hazard.
I was like Gloria and had a definite list when I was younger, but as I have gotten earlier I've learned to deal with most things depending on the person. However the above two criteria have to be adhered to. There is no getting around them.
Being judgmental...
I get majorly uncomfortable when a person is always speaking judmentally about others or discussing what they would 'never' do in comparison with another person's actions.
Also, when someone is not open to sincerely listening to ideas that differ from their own I become disinterested.
So, being judgemental and/or a lack of open-mindedness are definitely turn-offs/deal breakers.
