You'll want to avoid this guy.
Some people think that single-ism is not a choice but a state of being that shows that a person is inadequate when it comes to relationships. Singles are suddenly being pointed out as the people in the world who are crazy and dismal. I like to think that none of this is true, and that singlehood equals choosiness. Still, occasionally as women we can find ourselves in a dating rut, and we might settle for men that are not right for us. Here are the men to avoid, even during your weakest hour.
Mr. Popular
How To Spot Him:
Will be with a group of girls and guys at the bar.
Will wink at you when making the first move.
Has 493,876 Facebook friends.
Has almost as many Facebook “girlfriends” also known as women that tag him in bar photos regularly, and write things like “when are we hanging out, sexy?” on his wall.
Graduated college less than five years ago, and was maybe in a fraternity in college.
Lives with roommates.
Watch Out If You Visit:
Trendy bars downtown like Ember.
Why You Should Avoid Him: This guy will never be your boyfriend. You can never nail him down because he is way too busy pretending he is still in college. For now, he is not the relationship type. He loves being a social butterfly and if you do get the chance to go out with him, you will be too busy playing beer pong and wondering if every female friend of his is more than just a friend.
The Sexter
How To Spot Him:
Checks his phone every two minutes.
Will NEVER actually call you. His only form of communication is text messaging.
Sends you texts that say things like. “What are you wearing?” or “What’s the dirtiest thing you’ve done?”
Tries to get you to send him photos of you wearing only your bra, or less.
Watch Out If You Visit: Online dating sites.
Why You Should Avoid Him: Text-sex can be fun, but it is usually meant for you and a guy that you have gotten to know for a while. It is supposed to be a bonus to the real sex you are having with this guy, and should only happen after the fact, maybe a few months into dating him.
The Creeper
How To Spot Him:
Usually significantly older than you, maybe in a completely different dating age bracket.
Undresses you with his eyes.
Possesses a weird, stalker like quality.
Way too touchy feely when he barely knows you.
Watch Out If You Visit:
Ladies Nights around Orlando, especially Blue Martini or any Orlando Ale House, because The Creeper will be there, doing what he does best, hunting for female prey.
Why You Should Avoid Him:
You will never feel safe with this guy, no matter how well you get to know him. He likes to trick you into thinking that he is a nice guy by personalizing his conversations to fit you. If you pay close attention, you can catch him in the act because he will always agree with you, his interests will mimic yours, and he will get too comfortable with you in the beginning, hoping that you get comfortable as well. Trust your instincts because this guy is just plain dangerous.
The Too-Available Guy
How To Spot Him:
Buys you a drink right away, and gets you another before you are even half way done with the first.
Doesn’t get it when you want to practice dating feng shui, by moving around the bar to change your luck.
Calls more than once a day, and never says no to a date.
Watch Out If You Visit:
Generic restaurants with bars in them, like Chilis or Applebees, this guy is dying to buy you a two-for-one margarita.
Why You Should Avoid Him:
He will be so high maintenance; you won’t have time for anything else. Too-Available Guy is annoying, needy, and desperate. You don’t have time for him in your busy life.
The Bros Before Hoes Guy
How To Spot Him:
Will be in a group of only guys when you see him out, and is often his friend’s wingman.
Lacks fashion sense. Can be seen wearing muscle tees.
Says things like “my buddy” and refers to his friends as “the boys”.
Participates in guy-only weekends away.
Watch Out If You Visit:
Any sports bar when there is a good game on. He especially loves to frequent places like Winghouse or Hooters where he can get some female eye candy with his testosterone.
Why You Should Avoid Him:
You will never date just this guy; you will also be dating his friends. There will be constant competition between you and the boys, and he will always be freaking out if he is not getting enough time with his other “relationship”. You will also secretly wonder if his friends know as much about your sex life as you do.
