Regardless of whether or not you're looking for a relationship, girls can most likely relate to a few of the items on the list because unfortunately, the quest for a decent guy is often excessively paved with bad ones.

So, let's take a minute to reflect on a few of these tragic encounters that guys must think we "love" since they do it so often.

1. Leaving you on read for 2 days and then responding with a “U up?” text at two in the morning.

2. Ghosting you in the middle of a conversation.

3. Not being upfront about the other girls that they’re “talking” to.

4. Using the term “talking” instead of “dating” as a means to avoid the responsibilities that come along with being a boyfriend but also as a justification for hooking up.

5. Saying cute things over text while failing to acknowledge your existence in real life.

6. Saying “you’re the only person they want” while also explicitly flirting and hooking up with anyone willing and able.

7. Getting mad when you talk to other guys when they only refer to you as someone they’re “talking” to

(Bonus points if this occurs over a period that is a month or longer).

8. Playing games (Dribbling your heart like a basketball).

9. Leading you on only to end up saying “sorry I’m actually into someone else…”

(worse yet if he uses a trifling emoji to soften the blow).

10. Constantly blowing you off and never wanting to commit to anything, whether it’s just a plan to hang out or a serious date.

11. When they ask if you want to “Netflix and chill” instead of actually going out somewhere.

12. Leading you on through text but they break your heart in real life.

13. Never taking anything you say seriously.

14. Only wanting to talk about superficial/sexual topics.

After revealing intimate details about yourself and your life, they act understanding through text but they never replicate that vibe in real time.

15. Wanting to "talk" to you while never revealing anything about themselves.

The second it gets personal, they change the topic without warning.

16. Lying about what they want.

Faking being relationship material simply so they can get that “can you come over” text.

17. Not being able to just hang out with you simply because they enjoy your presence.

The second they get a "come over" text, that automatically equates to "Netflix and Chill" in their mind. Sometimes when girls send this text, if you're "talking," it means "ice cream and comfort me while I'm stressed" and unfortunately, many realize that this is not what that guy was trying to do.

18. Not paying attention to anything that you said.

(Bonus if it’s something really personal and vulnerable for that girl to talk about in the first place).

19. Saying one thing to your face and then saying a whole other thing with other people.

20. Introducing you as his “friend” when he expects you to only be loyal to him.

(If he’s really disgusting, he’ll be very SHOOK and upset when he finds out you interact with other guys besides him, even if he’s out here, “talking” to as many girls as he wants.

****Bonus****

And let's not forget the best one -- receiving those unsolicited pictures of certain unsavory objects, which tends to go a little something like this

Okay, okay so this article was very sarcastic, however, one thing I can and will say that girls LOVE, is meeting a guy who makes them forget about all the guys who do act this way. Believe it or not, there are guys in this world who do not act like this and want more than just a “Netflix and Chill” text.

You might have to get through a few of these jerks to realize it but if anything, it will make you appreciate the guy who doesn’t classify “talking” as a valid relationship status or sends a “U up?” text at an ungodly time in the morning after not talking to you for a week. Also, if you have not met any of these guys, count your blessings and give the guy in your life a big hug and invite him over for a “ice cream and comfort me when I’m stressed” hang out, because everyone deserves that every once in a while.

I can also guarantee you that he will also be completely fine just watching Netflix with you and possibly falling asleep on the couch after.
