Stereotypical Male Roles That Women Should
Avoid Dating
Dating can be a minefield, right ladies? Too often Mr. Right
turns into Mr. What-Was-I-Thinking almost overnight. If you are
tired of finding out too late in the game the guy you have on
the go is a complete dud, check out these stereotypical guys
that should have you running for the door from your very first
meeting. Avoiding these guys will have you well on your way to
finding that needle in the haystack, your perfect man.
The first type of guy that should have you running for the
hills is the guy that is still attached – very tightly – to his
mother’s apron strings. Now, sure, his closeness to his mother
will seem endearing at first. You’ll be telling yourself that
any man that treats his mother with such respect and reverence
must know a lot about how to treat a woman well. It turns out
you’ll just be kidding yourself when you say that. Super mom
will become mother-in-law from hell if you try to go the
distance with this guy, and if it comes down to you or her,
he’s going to pick her every time. Admit it – that’s just
creepy. Plus, he’s likely to be way immature and need you to
his pseudo mother instead of his girlfriend on those rare
occasions you get him to yourself.
Guy number two to run away from is the gym rat, muscle bound
type. A nice body is something to be admired in a man, of
course, and earning that six-pack takes hard work. Staying in
decent shape is one thing, however. Staying in Mr. Universe
shape is quite another. This man loves himself so much he
hardly knows how to fit you in. Once you get tired of staring
at the muscles, you’ll notice he hasn’t tired of it himself and
glances at him in every reflective surface he walks past. Add
to that a fondness for fake tanner and bikini bottoms, and your
hot muscle man has just become major cornball. If he can tear
himself away from the weights long enough, cut him
loose.
The third guy you should avoid is a little harder to spot.
That’s because he knows just how to play you. That’s right,
this guy is the player. He’ll make you feel so very special,
he’ll wine you and dine you, and he’ll be perfect at satisfying
your every wish and desire. The thing is that he’s just as
perfect at doing that Sally, Susie, Rosie and Tiffany, too.
Once he’s got you, you’ll move to the bottom of the rotation.
Your dates will become less frequent. He’ll get phone calls he
needs to take in private when you are together. He may or may
not need to borrow money. Once you get over the heartache,
you’ll spend months kicking yourself for not seeing it coming.
Avoid the hassle and let Mr. Smooth Talker sail on by to his
next victim.
The last scary guy on the list is Mr. Career Orientated. Yes, a
man with a drive to succeed and a passion for what he does is a
good thing. These traits suggest that he is responsible and
grown up. But a man that doesn’t know how to balance his job
and his relationship with you is not such a good thing. You may
be cheering for his office victories at first and supportive
for those first few all-nighters, but in the end, you’ll be
pleading for a just a little face time with him. You should
come first, period, and with this guy, he’ll always be putting
you off for a shot at that big promotion.
This list goes a long way to sending giving you a heads up
about the guys to run from, but it is not exhaustive. Look for
your own red flags, and when they start adding up, head for the
door so you can move on to better
things.
