Women: Five Men You Should Avoid
Dating
The Mamma's Boy
This guy probably lives with his mother, if not close
enough for her to pop in for tea (every night).
She will have helped him pick out his decor and there
will be photos of her all over his apartment. He
goes for Sunday dinner and has several cartons of
homemade meals in the refrigerator that mom made
for him.
Why you should stay away: You will never
live up to his mother and although he will love and
cherish you
forever he will take his mother's side every time.
How
to get rid of him: Tell him you don't like
his mother.
The Body Builder
This guy will have photos of himself on every available
space, along with his own home gym (even though he
has a life time membership at the swanky one in town).
He
has
all the latest gadgets and home entertainment systems.
Why
you should stay away: You will never see him
as he is always down at the gym. He will spend more
time
in the bathroom then you. He collects trophies and
likes one hanging off his arm.
How to get rid of him: Tell
him to give up the gym for you.
The Womanizer
This guy will treat you like a princess and is the
perfect lover. He dresses well and is out to impress
and impress he will (every woman he comes in contact
with). He will, of course, have trouble remembering
your name, with all the women he has on the go.
Why
You should stay away: His excuses for not showing
up are getting more pathetic. You will have to compete
with his phone as he has so many calls to
return and text messages to answer.
How to get rid of him: Tell
him, "I
use to be a man."
The Workaholic
This man is going places, but will he be taking you
with him? He is smartly dressed, has great taste in
decor and eats at the finest restaurants. However,
his work will always come first.
Why you should stay
away: You have to make an appointment to see him. He
will take you to elegant dinner parties
then leave you with strangers while he talks shop.
How to get rid of him: Tell
him, "I’m
taking a year off to travel. Do you want to come?"
Your College
Lecturer
He is probably older than you, more worldly and gets
you a good grade.
Why
you should stay away: If anyone found out about
you, they would say you slept your way to better grades.
Plus, he would lose his job and possibly his teaching
position.
How to get rid of him: Tell
him somebody is blackmailing you and if you don’t
stop seeing him, they are going to report you.
Of
course, there are exceptions. For example, if "the
body builder" knows how to give you the same type
of attention he gives his body then this could potentially
be a good thing (as long as you can handle other women
trying to pick up on him). And if you are a workaholic
that has no plans of changing then being in a relationship
with another workaholic will allow the two of you to
focus more on your careers while hopefully having some
focus left for each other. If "mamma's boy" mom
loves you and you can get the same focus from the man
as
his mom gives then just maybe... it's a stretch. Remember,
it's doubtful any of these men will change so it's
best not to try and change them.
A
good approach to take in wanting out of one of these
relationships is to be honest. This may gain more
respect. Tell "mamma's boy" that
he's too focused on his mom. Tell the womanizer that
you only have room in your
life for a man that only has room for you. It's doubtful
that they'll change, but at least they'll know the
real reason you don't want to pursue a relationship.
