For three years, I experienced intensive highs and lows in a relationship that I thought would last forever. Life threw me a curveball and now I am newly single. Being single is just reminding of how much I hate being single. It's not because I'm scared of being alone, it's because of how annoying men can be.

Okay, every guy isn't bad, but there are a few guys that every girl wishes she never met. Being single is exciting: full of twists and turns. You're constantly interacting with different types of personalities, which can be a ton of fun, but may also lead to some awkward moments. So what guys am I talking about? Here are the five types of guys I've encountered since I've being single:

1. The Clinger
2. The Scarecrow
3. The Mute
4. The But
5. The TWOT

The Clinger is the most self-explanatory and the most discomforting. For example, this guy would seriously send me 8 texts back to back, if I didn't reply within 30 seconds. I wasn't ignoring him, he just didn't give me a chance to reply. Once I received all the messages, I was too overwhelmed to even respond. There's nothing wrong with being a little aggressive, but too much can be creepy. His unwillingness to give me space made me cut him off immediately.

The Scarecrow, also known as the man without a brain. This man has no political or religious views at all. His lack of opinion makes it hard to want to spend my time talking to him. I prefer a man with intellect.

The Ken Doll. This is usually an extremely attractive guy, so attractive that he never bothered developing a personality because his looks have always got him by. Being alone with the Ken Doll can be the most awkward feeling in the world. All you do is stare at each other. A total lust driven relationship. When you're alone, it's as if you can hear the jeopardy theme song playing in the background as you wait for him to say something. 30-minute visits are usually all you two share.

The But... This is a guy where everything clicks. You guys have great conversations, and the chemistry and the physical attraction is there. Still, everyone has pet peeves that they can't live with. Usually, this perfect guy has one of those annoying little traits that you just cannot get over. For example, he might have little hands or you might hate the way he chews his food. When you talk about him with your friends, it always ends with "he would be perfect, but."

Last but not least, my personal favorite, The "TWOT" short for Total Waste of Time. This is the type of guy that makes you wonder why he even asked for your number in the first place. His favorite line is: "I'm not looking for a relationship." Which in other words means we can hook up, but we don't have a future. Not saying I even want a future with this person... Actually, the fact that he would even say that puts a sour taste in my mouth. Honestly, this guy is only out for one thing, and when its over, good riddance!

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
