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!

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
