You meet him for the first time and you can’t help but feel some kind of a mutual attraction. He asks you out on a date to get to know each other better and you accept, thinking that he is the one. He instantly sweeps you off your feet, and starts showering you with gifts and flowers. By now, you think that it is finally time to make it official, and introduce him to your friends and family; everything is perfect after all, isn’t it? But before you start falling head over heels for this guy, you first need to know what kind of person he truly is as he just might be bad news in disguise. Save yourself from the heartache now by knowing what types of men you should flat out avoid.
The Player:
A player knows that he can get any girl he wants, and he is so sure of himself. He is a skilled manipulator who somehow knows all the right things to say to make you fall for him. As the name suggests, a player wants to do nothing but play you, so walk away now before you become a new victim of his game.
Mr. Extremely Insecure:
Unlike the player, Mr. Extremely Insecure has no confidence at all. While we all have our insecurities and flaws, this guy will never be fully satisfied with himself and he will always compare himself to other people. In addition, he always wants you to make him feel better, but no matter how much you try, it will never be enough.
The Clingy One:
Clingy men are the easiest to spot. A clingy guy doesn’t understand the meaning of wanting your personal space and he is going to text you 24/7, asking to see you. If you ignore his text or miss his call, he is going to freak out and try to seek reassurance. Similar to Mr. Extremely Insecure, the clingy one is very needy. Eeeek!
Mr. Overly-Controlling:
The overly-controlling man will tell you what to do, what to wear, how to behave, and order you around like you are his property. He becomes more possessive with time and tends to get jealous over the smallest things. An overly-controlling man will convince you that his controlling behavior is all out of love, but the truth is it is just his unpleasant personality trait.
The Constant Complainer:
All you hear from a constant complainer is whining, whining, and even more whining. A complaining man will find anything to complain about, starting from the weather to the food being served at the restaurant. Also, all the negativity coming from the constant complainer will suck the energy and happiness out of you.
Mr. Momma’s Boy:
We sure do love a guy who is close to his mom. In fact, it can actually be endearing. On the converse, it is one thing for your man to have a good relationship with his mom, and another to depend on her all the time. A momma’s boy will always refer to his mom for major decisions instead of being independent enough to take the lead.
The Discouraging One:
A guy who discourages you instead of going above and beyond to support you is usually envious of your success. A discouraging man tends to trivialize your accomplishments as he will pretend that they are not good enough. Instead of believing in you and pushing you to do your best, he will try to dim your spotlight.
On a side note, you can tell a lot about a man by the way he treats his mother, sister, or any female figure in his life, so watch out for the little things!
