Ten Guys You Should Run From
These past few weeks have been interesting to say the least. Really...Interesting. It always baffles me when you think someone is a good person but they turn out to be a complete asshat.
The more I thought about it, the more I was coming up with all kinds of classifications. While they are all as equally as douchey, there are, in fact, some differences. I even googled this just so I could do some research to make sure it was also, in fact, "him, not me". You know that line.
Here are 10 guys that you should stay away from:
1. The Guy with a Questionable Past
Here are 10 guys that you should stay away from:
1. The Guy with a Questionable Past
This would be about the guy who flies his "raunch card" within the first 10 minutes of a conversation. You know, like the ones who ALL of their ex-girlfriends/wives are the crazy ones? There's an excuse for anything and everything..."Oh, I did this because she was bat shit crazy." or "She cheated on me. I was so heartbroken, I didn't know how else to deal with it". Gag.
2.The Player.
There are two types of "players" out there. The former player who is now looking to settle down and the perennial player, who has no intention of settling down. Ever. He tells you exactly what you want to hear: like he's tired of being single, he wants a relationship. This my dear, is complete bs, don't fall for it. You're not stupid, you'll know when you come across one.
3.The Not Over His Ex Guy.
The one that talks about her constantly and how horrible she is, how horrible her new boyfriend is, everything that she did wrong to him. Which could also fall into the "shady past" kind of guy. Either way. Run. Fast.
4.The Joker.
I don't come across these types of guys too often because I have amazing wit and don't let any guy, or female, degrade me with sarcasm and/or jokes. Or at all. But you get the point. If a guy uses his "sarcasm" to bring you down, he's a jerk and dump him immediately.
5.The Freight Train.
Possibly my favorite one to explain. Freight train pretty much sums it up in those two little words, but oh how true they are.The guy who wants to spend every waking moment with you and talking to you. He'll text multiple times a day, talk to you all night, talk about the future with you, he will sweet talk you in and convince you he's the one. All before you even know his last name. He loves the chase, once he has you though and has you convinced, he'll drop you before you even know what's happening, all while picking the next girl at the next stop.
6. The Man-Boy
He's beyond the age of college partying and house parties, yet he's still partying. He's still racking up beer pong championships and corn-hole wins. While he may be fun now y'all, he won't be fun when you're ready to settle down and he's all, "What? No way!".
7.The Downer
Misery loves company is this fella to a tee. Oh my word, the Downer. If life hands him lemons and he can't make lemonade, be skeptical. If you try to cheer him up and he continues to be blah about life, just walk away and find someone who has a positive outlook on life. You don't need to be with someone who will only bring you down.
8. Mr. MasterCard
This guy has money and he's not afraid to flaunt it. Or make you know just how well he's doing. I don;t know about you ladies, but this type of action is repulsing and an immediate deal breaker. While going out is nice, you will quickly see that he's materialistc.
9. Sir. Makes Excuses A lot.
Lately, nothing gets on my nerves more than someone who makes excuses for anything and everything. If you don't want to do something, say it. If you don't think you're willing to change something, then don't but say something. This guy will say he's not doing something because of "yada yada", he's not changing because "blah blah", he didn't buy you flowers because his cat died, etc. The biggest bullshitter of them all. No one wants to be with someone who you can't depend on.
10. The Wisher-Washer
The most frustrating guy, the one who makes me want to throat punch anyone with a pe.n.i.s.
One minute he's all about you. The next minute he doesn't know if he wants a relationship. After that, there's someone else and he needs to think about things. Then he needs to chose between two women. All while staying "confused" and talking to you like nothing ever happened. They want to have their cake and eat it too basically. I personally believe that he's related to the Freight Train.
Am I right ladies? Anyone else that you would add to the list?!
