If you're doing online dating in the English-speaking world, you might see people talking about their "icks."

This is a slang word — icks are things that give you "a sudden feeling that you dislike someone" or are no longer attracted to them, according to the Cambridge Dictionary.

Icks are not always really big things. Being rude to an employee at a store, for example, might be an ick for someone, or eating with your mouth open.

People will often say they "got the ick" when they noticed something about a person that made them feel they were no longer attracted to them.

If they get to that point, it may be hard for them to feel attracted again!

If you're looking through dating profiles on an app, the most common ick is people who are negative or bitter.

That's according to a survey for Forbes Health. One thousand Americans who had used a dating app in the last year were asked about their dating habits.

And about 70% said people who are negative or bitter in their bios, perhaps about a previous relationship, give them the ick.

Other common icks include people with edited photos, people who are too interested in their possessions, and people with bad spelling or grammar.

And when using the apps, daters often make their decisions quite quickly.

According to the survey, the average person takes about two-and-a-half minutes to make a decision about whether they like a person or not.

So what makes daters attractive to others? Having a profile that shows a good sense of humor is a good thing, according to 80% of people.

The same number said they like people who have hobbies and interests, while many others like people who are interested in travel — or who show a pet in their photo!

Why You Freeze in English: The Psychology of Language Learning

🎧 Have you ever felt like your English is perfect in your head… but the moment you open your mouth — it disappears?

You tell yourself it’s bad grammar, or not enough vocabulary. But the truth is… it’s not grammar at all.

It’s psychology.

In this episode, we’re going to explore what’s really happening in your mind when you speak another language — why emotions, memory, identity, and even your belief system decide whether your English flows or freezes.

You’ll discover why anxiety blocks your brain, how perfectionism slows you down, and how playfulness accelerates fluency.

And I’ll share what I’ve learned in over 20,000 coaching sessions with professionals around the world — from Russia to China to the Middle East — about how people truly unlock their global voice.

If you’ve ever doubted yourself in English… this episode will change the way you see language learning forever. Let’s dive in.


If today’s episode resonated with you, here’s what I want you to do next. Don’t just stop at listening — take action.

I’ve put together a free Voice Starter Kit with warm-ups and mindset shifts I usually only share with my private clients. It’s designed to lower your anxiety, boost your confidence, and help you sound clear and natural in English — even under pressure.

All you need to do is send me a quick DM with the word VOICE and I’ll send it straight to you.

Remember — your English is not just grammar and vocabulary. It’s your global identity. Let’s unlock it together.
