Jquery not selector returning unexpected results

I've got a custom jquery selector called deletable

With this selector I get all divs that I need to get. But I have some of these divs containing elements that I don't want so I want to exclude them.

Example :

:deletable returns 3 divs, two of those divs have input elements. I want to get the one without input elements

I tried this (and many other variants):

$(':deletable:not(:deletable:contains(input))')

Not working, I still get all three divs.

I'm using this inside .on() function like this :

$(document).on('click', ':deletable:not(:deletable:contains(input))' ...)

So I don't know how to use .filter() function with on (that might be the key).

How do I use :not properly in my case

$(':deletable').not($(':deletable:has(input)'));
