Hmm. This looks fun. :3
For Aysun it is a bit odd, because her being physically attracted to someone is directly related to being emotionally attracted to them. She does not have one without the other. She's tried, and it's empty and not something she can do. Your character can be the most gorgeous man or woman in the world, but she won't find you attractive or be interested until she forms an emotional bond. Girl-talk about ("he's so sexyyy!") and flirting with people with whom this bond is not made is nearly impossible for her.
That said, once that bond is there, there's very little that she can call a flaw in that person. However, some things I think would still be an issue for her if they occurred, though this bond-making weeds out the really obvious things (hard to form that bond with someone who clashes with her personality blatantly, so I won't list those things).

Physically:
- Someone who is shorter than she is - Despite how much she abhors her height in her current relationship as an inconvenience (he's a freakin' Highlander!), being involved with someone she looked down to would be unnerving.
- Poor hygiene (the distinctly offensive kind) - She bathes at least twice day; she's a bit neurotic about it. Coming home smelling like the morbol you ran into or like vomit from the bar? Completely gross, and she will tell you that. That said, coming home smelling of smoke and sweat from hard work at the forge seems completely acceptable.
- Changes frequently. - Much make up to no make up to war paint. Blonde hair to black hair to red hair. Frequent, drastic changes to someone's appearance are unnerving to her, especially when they move far away from what is natural for that person. How a person looks is a big part of who they are to her and she feels she has to reacquaint with this new, changed person every time. If someone is consistently "unnatural" she would not be bothered.
- Overly flirtatious people/someone who every other sentence is a compliment. - This just makes her uncomfortable way too often. She is terrible at taking compliments and does not want to be treated specially most of the time.
- Public displays of affection. - She is rarely affectionate in public, with friends or lovers. Someone who forces his upon her would only make her feel uncomfortable. It's little to do with being embarrassed of the person she is with and more to do with not liking to show that side of herself to the world at large.
- Liars. - Lies are intolerable, even little white ones, and she has a keen sense of when someone is lying to her. Don't do it.
- Abstract (stealing this term from Caspar for different reasons) - Riddles and indirectness. While intellect and "smartness" do impress her, she does not like when people speak so damn fancily! She has more than once told someone to "speak plainly." This is mostly to do with her actual inability to understand people when they speak abstractly, due to a smaller vocabulary and lack of education in her upbringing. Simple terms and simple words for a rather simply educated girl, please.
