We have BPD, AW, Daddy Issues, Insane, Addicts, Christian, what else?
Depends on what you're looking for.
STR/ONS: You don't have to avoid much aside from anything that is immediately annoying - things like hyper-combativeness, bad hygiene, talks too much, talks too little, short, fat, whatever will give you that immediate negative feeling.
LTR: If you have a list of 20 things that you look for in a girl, turn that into 4 or 5 things that you will not compromise on (I see this list as pretty universal for men and women, but there's some wiggle room), and avoid anyone that forces you to decide whether to compromise on your big four.
My big four for LTR, for example, are:
1) Emotional stability - ability to see life as reality rather than drama, her feelings don't change at the drop of a hat
2) Independence - doesn't need me to do anything that she should do for herself
3) Proximity - before the internet and phone, we never would even think of having a long distance relationship. Just because the situation has changed doesn't mean the human hunting instinct hasn't.
4) Trustworthy - if I need to, I have to be able to trust this person with my life.
I look at this like legs of a table arranged in a square pattern. Knock one away and the table falls. You heard it here first, "Love Shogun's Table Theory for Long Term Relationships."
If a girl doesn't bring those 4 things, I can't seriously consider an LTR with her.
