He Is Not Worth Your Time

A 3rd person, subjective perspective on male archetypes encountered in today's dating scene.

He Is Not Worth Your Time
Cha Cha

I have seen so many relationships form and end within my life thus far. Most of the time I could have predicted why it would come crashing down in the end. Allow me to preface this by saying I am far from perfect. I wouldn't date me.

I people watch and pick apart people's behaviors. On top of doing that and applying common sense, it truly isn't hard to spot a guy who is a deadbeat. I feel bad for you, ladies. Sometimes some truly feckless, contemptible men will run some fantastic game. They can deceive the smartest of women. Allow me, a male, to point out some red flags that mean he may not be worth your time. Bear in mind, these are trends I have observed and may not be true in all cases.

This article will be featuring the emotionally aware Harry Styles who will help in administering the truth to you.

1. Has a jacked up pickup/sports car etc. and nothing else.

*

Too often, I have seen girls fall for the scuzzy guy with a nice vehicle. Chances are he didn't even buy the vehicle. These guys tend to be egocentric and will likely cheat on you with some girl named Ashley. If his vehicle is nice, if it is his most precious possession, then I would bet you are not going to step in and take the number one spot.

2. He receives/received bad grades in school

Failing classes isn't cool. Dropping out isn't cool. Being illiterate isn't cool. Guys who don't get good grades (I mean straight F's) don't tend to be soulmate material. Ladies, dump your idiot before he creates a generation in you.

3. He openly and very rudely disrespects his parents


This is birthgiver we are talking about folks! If you see a man disrespecting his parents, his momma, you need to get out now. Good point, sassy Harry. Thanks for bringing it up!

4. He asks you to pay his bills

This is some fairy-tale level stupid. I heard a story I am fairly certain is true. A girl, who shall not be named, helped her boyfriend resolve the debt he incurred buying some vehicle, dirt bike, etc. This resulted in her struggling to afford a prom dress. Spoiler alert, this kind of situation was a common occurrence. Moral of the story: you is not a damn bank. #staywoke

5. If you see him checking apps like Tinder while on a date with you


Oddly enough, this scenario happened to one of my friends. My friend was the guy who got caught "Tindering" while on a date. We were both sure that he done goofed. This girl then proceeded to ask this dumbo out the next day. Ladies, say no to guys who Tinder on the first date. Sassy Harry demands it!

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
