I have the worst luck when it comes to dating guys. I’ve dated everyone from the pathological liar, to the clinger, to the pretentious athlete. One thing my mom always told me was to look at every guy you date as a potential husband. From personal experience I’ve compiled a list of 8 guys you shouldn’t date.
1. The needy guy. You want to be the woman a guy needs, but you don’t want to be with a needy guy. You should not be with a guy who constantly needs support and validation of your affection. If he shows too much emotion, and the need for constant comforting, he’s probably not going to make the best boyfriend when it comes to supporting and comforting you.
2. The liar. This kind of guy will tell you anything for a quick hook up. The lies begin small, making up stories about his school, work, past relationships, or family. Then they get big, and they begin to overlap. These guys can’t keep their stories straight.
3. The insecure guy. There is nothing worse than a relationship with a guy who is insecure. Whether it’s about his body, his work, or your relationship insecurity is the downfall of lots of relationships. If he’s insecure, he will constantly be questioning everything you do, and accusing you of wanting other guys over him. Low self-esteem is one of the biggest turn offs.
4. The wanderer. No girl wants to be stuck with a guy whose eyes are always wandering. He should not be with you and checking out other girls. It’s even worse when he begins to make inappropriate comments about other girls to you.
5. The irresponsible spender. Nobody wants a guy who is financially unstable. If he gets his paycheck and blows it on things that are completely useless and unimportant, he wont be able to support you. He should not be asking you to drive because he doesn’t have gas money, or taking you out on a dinner date and expecting you to pay for yourself.
6. The self-obsessed guy. This guy will spend more time talking about himself than listening to what you say. When trying to have a conversation you wont be able to get a word in. You’ll most likely catch him always staring at himself in the mirror. If he cares more about spending time at the gym or pampering himself than he cares about you, you need to run.
7. The child. We’re in college ladies; we should have high enough standards to date someone who is at our level mentally. He should not be more into his video games than you. There is a difference between a guy with a sense of humor and a guy who is just plain immature. This is the kind of guy who won’t be able to hold a job, and he will always be blaming you for his personal problems.
8. The disrespectful son/brother. Family is big to me, and I know it is to many other girls. Do NOT date a guy who is disrespectful to his mother. I’m sure you’ve all heard it before, you can tell what a guy is like by the way he treats his mom and/or his sister. If he’s rude to his family, he’ll probably be rude to you too!
