We’ve all been there. This guy is seemingly perfect: gorgeous, confident, intriguing, and you’re looking forward to taking long walks on the beach with him and finding out what makes him tick. One day, you text him and don’t get a response. Maybe he’s just busy? But you know he’s online because he just commented on some other chick’s photo. Or after your first date, he stops calling you, and you start receiving one word text messages like “K” and “lol”.
You've probably fallen into the trap that these f*ckboys – males who only want to get in your pants – set for unsuspecting women like us. Here are 9 signs that reveal these Hit-It-and-Quit-It types of guys.
1. They have too many shirtless pictures.
Now, one or two are okay. It’s fine to show off your progress in the gym; many women do it too. But if his profile is more than 50% shirtless, there’s a 90% chance that he’s a f*ckboy. Why? Because a f*ckboy lives for the attention of a plethora of women. If they’d rather be admired for their looks than their intellect and personality, then this is a tell-tale sign of f*ckboy material..or at the very least, of low self-esteem.
2. Only women are friends with them/follow them on social media.
Because they live for the attention of other women, it’s no reason to be friends with/follow family members or friends on social media. In fact, most of the people commenting on their pictures are usually women, and 9 times out of 10, attractive women at that. A normal person usually has random people commenting on their pictures, but they also have family, friends, classmates, and even the occasional associates engaging in mutual discussion on a given topic. A f*ckboy, on the other hand, will either keep his family off of social media or have a separate account. After all, who would want their mother seeing shirtless pics of their son every day and women constantly commenting the eggplant emoji?
3. They are constantly squinting their eyes, licking and/or biting their lips, and in general trying to smolder in almost every (if not all) pictures on their social media.
If you’ve ever seen the Disney movie Tangled with Mandy Moore, you know that there’s a reason Rapunzel was not impressed with Flynn Ryder at first, and that reason was because he was a jerk. Though Ryder was the watered down version of a f*ckboy, he nevertheless illustrated a common straight that most f*ckboys possess. The “smolder” as he called it, was a look that he gave Rapunzel in which he would squint his eyes like he was trying to look at the individual hairs on her forehead, pouted his suddenly-moist-lips in a half smile, and then expect Rapunzel to do whatever he wanted her to do, which resulted in him getting hit by a frying pan. F*ckboys in the wild usually have a mating call that varies by eyes and lips, in which they will either squint or widen the eyes, and lick, bite, purse, or pout their lips. This is a variation of the Flynn Ryder “Smolder” as he called it, but it is pretty much the same thing.
4. They claim that they are ugly as captions of their pictures, knowing damn well that they aren’t.
Occasionally, some f*ckboys believe that they hold a degree in reverse psychology and will try to rein you in that way. It’s like a subtle mating call, only this time it’s verbal. They claim that they are “ugly”, “unattractive”, “hideous”, etc., meanwhile, they have about 500+ friends/followers, are always showing off their naked upper body pictures despite their “ugliness”, have about 50+ likes on every picture, and attractive women constantly assuring them that they are not. Do not fall for this.
Seriously, don't be like this woman. Just ignore them.
5. They have a hard time maintaining eye contact.
When you talk to them, they have a hard time looking you in the eyes and their eyes always stray to look at your breasts, butt, or other women. Okay, so just suppose you've missed the previous 4 signs and now you are suddenly having a conversation or maybe even on a date with el f*ckboy. The purpose of the f*ckboy is to objectify, and in order to objectify, he must not know you. In fact, according to Researchers at Cornell University, maintaining eye contact creates a “subconscious sense of connection”, which is the exact opposite of the f*ckboys purpose, hence the reason for the no eye-contact as a means to an end of objectification. Furthermore, a f*ckboy’s eyes will usually stray to the assets of a woman that are transferable – meaning the breasts and the bottom. Every woman has these two things, and so the sub-purpose of the f*ckboy is to objectify the physical assets of women so as to prevent any emotional connection with a woman, which is more easily established via eye-contact.

6. Conversations usually always turn sexual.
A f*ckboy’s nature is to have sex. Period. So naturally, they are going to want to talk about things of a sexual nature. If you start off talking about the weather, school, hobbies or work, but the conversation somehow always ends with something out of a 50 Shades of Grey movie, chances are he’s a f*ckboy and it’s best to stay away.

7. Things or people that they care about are (usually) off-limits.
Usually, a f*ckboy does not engage in conversations about anything meaningful, though there are exceptions. This hit-it-and-quit-it type of behavior is most likely an allowed behavior, and 9 times out of 10, there are parents who know that their sons are having sex in their rooms and do nothing about it. For instance, Regina George from Mean Girls illustrates the product of a Too-Laxed-Parent type of mentality, and as a result, you get an objectifying, man-whore version of Regina George. Bottom Line: don't be surprised if he "introduces" you to his mom or dad- and by introduce, I mean a simple "hi/bye" greeting and a short conversation about how you two know each other - and then proceeds to offer you a cozy place next to him for a session of Netflix and Chill. If you do meet a f*ckboy who gushes over how proud he is of his little brother for playing soccer or who spends weeks planning a surprise birthday party for his mom, don't be fooled. He still possesses parents who’ve allowed them to maintain a space where sexual intercourse and meaningful things/people are acceptable the moment said-parent chooses a blind eye (and ear) to whatever goes on behind his closed door. Indeed, these blind eyes and ears enable the f*ckboy to emotionally detach himself, wherein he can still succeed in his purpose to objectify while also sharing what may seem like personal or meaningful information about himself.
8. If you don’t have sex with the f*ckboy within one to three days of knowing him, communication usually becomes limited and/or non-existent. Ditto for having sex with them within one to three days of knowing him.
Another primary goal of the f*ckboy is to have sex with you as soon as possible so that he can add you to his count of the 50-something women he already knows intimately. Once he sees that you are not interested in having sex with him, he usually stops communicating with you as frequently as before, or at times, altogether. Likewise, if the primary goal of the f*ckboy has been attained, he usually does not communicate as frequently as before or stops altogether.

9. He calls you “baby”, “sweetheart”, “love” or some kind of other pet name that is usually reserved for boyfriend status or close friends.
The f*ckboy is usually talking to about 3 -5 women at a time, maybe more depending on his social media accounts. The usage of this term of endearment is because 1. He’s trying to remember your name after he just finished talking to Sally-something-or-whatever or 2. He’s attempting to speed up the process of familiarity with you so that you are more likely to trust him faster. In reality, it's just creepy.

If you’ve recognized 2 or more of these signs within a potential dating partner, chances are, he’s a f*ckboy and you must steer clear. In my experience, setting clear boundaries (i.e., no pet names, no sexual talk and no sex for a very long time) usually helps to weed out the f*ckboys pretty quickly to a more deserving and loving match. But pay attention to the early signs, as they can and will save you a lot of confusion and heartache.
