10 Types of Men To Stay away from …
Currently on the market? Good for you, girl! But make sure you read this post before rushing into a new relationship. Here are ten types of man that are not likely to make you happy, and from my point of view, it’s better to stay away from them as soon as they show one of these patterns.
1. Born complainers …
Nothing will ever be good enough for this man, you’ll always be too loud, too stupid, too happy….. Avoid him like you would the plague, you’ll never be good enough for him and he’ll just kill your self esteem.
2. ‘Damaged’ men …
… Who don’t want to be fixed. On your first date he’ll announce that he is not over his broken heart. On your tenth, you’ll realise that he isn’t just broken hearted; he enjoys it, and has made a solemn pact to never let anybody in again. His armour is so thick that you’ll never get through, so don’t waste your time trying.
3. Guys that love sports more then you …
Most guys will put a sport first at some point, but you know that he’ll be there for you if you need him. Guys who love sports too much, however, won’t care if the house is on fire or the babies crying, he’ll just want another beer and some “peace” to watch the match.
4. Men who analyse you …
He thinks he’s Freud, and analyses your every move, from the flavour of crisp you choose to what you watch on TV. He’ll sit with a smug smile, convinced that by labelling you he’ll be keeping you hooked. Soon he’ll be trying to “fix” you with his weird theories….bin him now.
5. Pretty-Pretty boys …
They will just leave you feeling ugly while he spends his time fixing his hair and acting more beautiful and delicate then you. Find a more masculine man, and leave him preening himself.

Second, anything that generalizes someone based on one character trait is always touchy business. My co-author on my blog once took a beating for referring to women as being “catty”. She wasn’t even aiming for stereotypical but it was certainly perceived that way.
Why encourage judging someone’s potential based upon their looks, interests, hobbies, past romances, etc.? Would you want a guy to avoid you because you checked yourself out in the mirror too often? Does he think it makes you insecure or vain?
Obviously mental and physical abuse is never ok. But once a cheater always a cheater? Have you ever made a mistake in your life and needed to be forgiven for it? I’ve been with my husband for 11 years now. We got past an infidelity and, had we not, we would have missed out on the rest of our lives together.
My friend was just left heartbroken and wounded Christmas Day. She swears she will never trust again. Should men shun her because she’s “damaged goods”? Does she deserve to be alone because she can’t see past her current heartbreak and anger?
Maybe a post encouraging people to help others heal, turn their faults into positives, and be trusting over cynical and pessimistic would be better. Maybe our country’s divorce rate is so high because people are constantly looking for faults in their partners as ways of covering up their own.
Don’t condemn a guy just cause he shows some weakness. I guarantee if he shows NO weakness he will play on your attraction to him and he will use you up whether you are consciously aware or not. Do you know why he can do this?? Because of this confidence that you are so infatuated with. He doesn’t need you. This is how women end up with “jerks” and think all men are pigs bla bla. If I knew a girl friend of mine was down, I would be there for her, and that to me shows respect and understanding. I would expect the same from her.
There are always reasons for a person’s demise, so do not be so quick to judge if he happens to be down, and perhaps for a while. Help a guy out. He will cherish and appreciate you even more for it, should a coupling come out from this interaction. And no, this does not necessarily mean he will be clingy.
For the most part, this list is a load of shit.
And, yes, disagreed, while I do agree with you, I also think ... See more that there are SOME guys (and girls) who think that if a person would be okay with forgiveness once, then that person would always be okay with the behavior that required some degree of forgiveness. Does that always happen? No. But I’ve had friends who have taken their boyfriends/girlfriends back after being cheated on, beaten, and lied to while their friends were left shrugging their shoulders and asking why.
That’s the wrong way to look at it. Love is beautiful…with the right person of course. And I know it’s hard to trust again and I’m not saying you have to fall for ... See more the next person who comes along but give love a chance.
*Hug*
Oh, and about the money issue. I agree with you. No one should expect their partner to spend for their shopping sprees and whatnots. Not unless you are married or living together. By the way, who are you referring to with this comment? I’m just curious. I didn’t read through the comments so I’m not sure if anyone talked about a guy being mean because he won’t spend money on a woman.
As for me, I’m not fond of men with these traits (especially when occurring together) so I just generally stay away from them. I can’t relate to them so I stay away and not bash anyone. I’m sure guys feel the same way when it comes to women and the traits we have.

I’m sure it was a typo. Thanks for pointing it out though :)
fantastic blog btw
Not all of us are that lucky so good for you ;)
Keep visiting!
I don’t mean to sound shallow but yeah I agree. Either that or he really has to know his way around!
True true :D
I did wonder how you’d even start ... See more dating a ‘cruel man’ if he never takes you out in the first place though lol
Glad you liked the post! We’ll definitely add “10 types of women to stay away from” on our list of to-do posts. I know my best friend’s ex is making that list for ... See more sure :p *hopes he doesn’t read this*
i would say that is definitely a problem.. maybe you could interest him in other types of workouts maybe ;)
and you got it right with born complainers. everytime I’m like oh I might like this guy I am instantly repulsed by the stuff he complains about and thinks I want him to share. gross. if you need a therapist I’m not your gal. ready to listen not ready to spend all day doing it especially for negative bits and pieces.
sports lovers kind of are attractive though…lol sort of manly? I don’t know!
every day i get to know you a little better! i like my men to play sports rather than watch them… watching them is just boring for me!
Use it wisely :)
It goes both ways….this bashing business. And this post is hardly male bashing. What’s wrong with a little advice on the wrong kinds of men?
Now that you’ve realized it, I’m sure you will be on the path to being a better man =)
I would love your thoughts on my counter-post. My female-oriented blog has recently picked up some male readers and I am looking for some solid feedback.
I guess the only alternative to this is going lesbian. Tried it and not such a fan :(
Hun I’m sure there’s the perfect guy for you out there somewhere. It’s just a matter of time before you meet him! Hang in there…
Second, if you guys get scared, that is the bigger setback because if you rule out any potentials your going to have to draw your own guy or go abroad to find a man.
The point is that there are so many different guys everywhere, the point of having so many different guys is to try a few out, make some conclusion on your own, and along the process you will find a guy thats right for you… not for this site/blog/whatever… whoever made this was a lesbian and hates men for all i see..

These 10 ‘qualities’ could apply to ANY guy. What poor sap is left out after you weed through these traits? Some super sensitive pushover with no opinions or personality of his ... See more own? There’s no excitement there. Lame.
As a guy, I want 3 things: healthy appearance (not overweight, good habits, etc), interest and intelligence in a wide range of subjects (to challenge me), and a fucking sense of humor. Boom. That’s it. Someone I can be physically attracted, fun to talk to about stuff ranging from politics to film even if we vehemently disagree, and who won’t be prissy and easily offended if I crack some dark jokes at inappropriate times. It’s not that hard. I have met plenty of women like this, all great friends.
Unfortunately I am 23yrs old and it would be stupid to get into a relationship with someone now. I want to have fun. I make no promises. I always make sure girls understand that. I wonder what number on this list that makes me? The honest employed hard working in shape college educated 23yr old male who doesn’t want to add an unnecessary burdens to the most vital years of his life.
Probably an asshole. Ha!
Nah…
You are not an asshole, you are normal guy, that’s why your type is not on the list :)
But do you know what the funniest part is? ... See more You just haven’t met the right girl yet, and when you do, you’d forget all about the “burdens” and the “vital years of your life” :) That’s how all the guys get tied down, believe it or not, this scheme works like a charm :)
Just wait :)
