Since someone recently brought up the subject...
What would it take for you to not associate with someone else?
Granted we have our favorite people out there that we love to pal around with and invite over for meals and such...
What would it take for one of them to do in order to get you to stop hanging out or calling them any more?
A child of your own is a different story...but a cousin?

Deal Breakers
I want to die like Grandpa, quietly and in his sleep; not like the passengers in his car, they were all panicking and screaming.

Two things:
Lying and leaving. I don't deal with either very well. I have ceased communication with someone extremely dear to me who lied to me once. Big, bad lie. Time passed, things were addressed and truth was told, and now we're good and I don't even think about it unless something like this is mentioned.
Leaving --- since 1973, leaving is the ultimate deal-breaker for me. If you are a loved one of mine and you turn your back on me, (and this is a character flaw, but I'm being honest) you may as well be dead to me because I will do absolutely nothing to help you, I will not talk with or hear you, and you become my enemy. I'm fiercely loyal, but when I'm betrayed, that's all she wrote.

My parents have the spiritual gift of "mercy" and I guess I do too. It's hard to say what would be a "deal breaker" because I believe in reconciliation and restoration. Sometimes misunderstood because of that. 
I would have to think about would really be a turn off. I guess smelly feet, well, I guess and body odor. Those are tough.

Hey, after a long hard days work most of us smell bad...complete with stinky boots, shoes and feet.
But we can always take a shower and clean up.
