I will be upfront; I get hit on a lot. Some people say that I shouldn't dress up so much, but I think that's silly. Makeup and fashion are things I embrace. I look good not to please others, but myself. But, that's a topic for another day. For now, let's talk about how I tend to run into the same men over and over: men who haven't really grown up. Unfortunately, there are many more kinds of "douchebags" out there; these are just to name a few. Try your hardest to avoid these the next time you say "yes" to a date.
1. The douchebag who has a girlfriend
Yep, this is the one who tries to hit on you, even when he’s committed to someone else. He’ll pull the “Oh, it’s complicated” card; “I’m going to break up with her soon” line. When in reality, he doesn’t have any intentions of ending the relationship; he just can’t keep it in his pants. He doesn’t know how to stay loyal to one girl, simply because loyalty is a quality that many don’t possess these days.
2. The douchebag who doesn’t get the hint
This is the guy who blows up your messages even AFTER you told him you’re not interested. Maybe you went on one date with him. Maybe you went on none at all. But this guy doesn’t care. “Oh, but I just want to be friends.” Uhh.. No, you don’t. You’re just looking for an excuse to talk to me more. “Please, just give me a chance.” Begging for me isn’t going to work, honey.
3. The douchebag who flips out after you reject him
Remember when you said how beautiful I was and how anyone would be lucky to have me? Oh wait, now you’re calling me a “hoe” because I don’t want to date you. So now you can go around and tell all your friends that I was a “tease” and “led you on”. My bad.
4. The douchebag who is always high
Is what you’re saying actually English? I don’t understand a word you’re saying. Get a hobby, dude.
5. The douchebag who wants you to have a threesome
“My girlfriend and I are in an open relationship and we’d love to..”. Please, just stop there.
6. The douchebag who thinks he’s Jesus
This is the one who suddenly “wants you back” after kicking you to the curb. He didn’t have the time of day for you, but now wants to profess his love to you after you showed him how much better off you are without him. “I miss how we were.” Dude, we haven’t spoken in like three years. Also, lose the mustache. You look like you’re 45.
8. The douchebag who doesn’t care about his future
When he doesn’t appear to have any real long-term goals, then it’s time to let him go. I’m an intelligent, strong, and independent woman. I want someone I can build a future with, not someone I need to babysit.
9. The douchebag who treats women like sex objects
10. The douchebag who is still stuck in high school
This guy starts up more drama than girls do. Please, I already have enough problems in my life. I don’t need any more. High school feels like a century ago; let’s move past it and focus on bettering ourselves.
11. The douchebag who is “too busy”
I’m all for a man who is driven towards his future, ambitious in his goals, and motivated to support himself. But if you really care about me, you will make time for me. Point blank. End of discussion.
12. The douchebag who’s never wrong
This is the one whose opinion you can never shake, no matter how ridiculous it is. Some men are just way too stubborn. And he’ll just go on and on and on until you’re forced to agree with him. Okay, whatever you say, dude. I’m getting a migraine.
