Carmen Electra Talked Dating Dealbreakers

Carmen Electra opened up about her dating dealbreakers.
The actress opened up about her current dating deal breakers, admitting she has zero tolerance for liars.
"It’s just really nice when you're with someone who's just really into you. I have had that before. It obviously didn't last," she said before referencing her ex-husband Dave Navarro, whom she was married to from 2003 to 2007.
“But once you know what it feels like to really be with someone who is so there for you, you can't undo that feeling,” she continued. “You know it's just beautiful. Somebody who's very romantic. I remember when I was dating Dave, I was so not romantic, and he was teaching me how to be romantic, but now I am.”
Electra explained it was his idea to celebrate the "10th of every month" together because that was the day they met.
“Like, we're gonna have a special dinner for the 10th of every month, because we met on this date, cute things like that were really thoughtful,” she gushed, admitting her ex "ruined it" for her future partners.
