Biggest turn off: Illiteracy

It makes me so sad when I bring up books or reading and someone responds along the lines of "I don't read". It is so degrading to our generation. I would not date a guy that 'doesn't read'.
What do you think about these kind of people, the ones that make remarks such as "Reading is so boring!"?

  3. That's an amazing quote! Totally how I feel. I even know writers who confess to not being readers. They should be charged with heresy xD

  8. I don't get it how people just can't read, or find it boring. Perhaps TV got to their brain and made it rot?

    My bf reads, it's actually one of the first things that got me to fall for him ;) he games more now, but he still reads too.

    J: nothing wrong with COD. Those kill shots are hard to do while sprinting away from that bloody remote control cars that explode ;)

  9. J: Yeah, I have yet to find a nice guy with a personality I like that reads :/ sigh haha.
    Okbo lover: I don't watch much TV, unless it's baseball or basketball, I prefer playing out the book in my head :)

    Well you girls are lucky! Appreciate your boyfriends<3
