The First Several Traits... of a Loser

Before you proceed to jump into a new relationship,  watch out for several traits you saw in your ex before. Here are some of the signs that he is a LOSER and not worth keeping.

1. He drives like a maniac. Seriously. He yells at the other drivers and has no patience. He probably has anger issues. He brags about how good he is with maneuvering cars but careful. You might end up in a silly accident with him. Never let him drive your cars with that attitude.

2. Asking questions that have to deal with getting personal/touchy feely… Oh no. That is too much too soon. According to dating guru Patti Stanger, this is a serious red flag and indicates that he has no respect for boundaries and certainly has no class. And that’s probably all he is really after as well.

3. Asking questions that are way too personal – the first date or two even should be simple get-to-know-you stuff, not questions about how much you make or what’s your credit score.

4. He’s too good to be true. He probably is. It’s OK if he is trying to put his best foot forward, but not if it means lying to impress you. If he brags a lot, it’s actually a show of a lack of confidence and insecurity.

5. He’s wearing an ankle bracelet. I’m not talking the gold kind here; I’m talking about the one placed there by the long arm of the law…He might be innocent and then again he might not be!

6. Rude to other people – he is disrespectful to the waiter or waitress at dinner or anyone else that you encounter. He may be nice to you at the time, but it’s only a matter of time before he disrespects you, too.

7. Rants about an ex or his exs negatively – he still has anger issues and is probably still in love with her. And most of all, he’s not taking the blame. Divorce comes about and relationships end usually because of the fault of both people, not just one.

8. He shows signs of jealousy – this is a red flag from the start. He will most likely be this kind of guy if he asks a lot of questions about past relationships; asks a lot about what kind of guy you like (one or two is OK, but if he dwells on it, take off!); he gets mad if you are too friendly with the waiter; and he asks a lot about who you socialize with.

9. Consuming too much alcohol – sure a little drink might be in order to relax, but when he orders another and then another, don’t even think about getting back in that car with him. Make some excuse and call a friend or cab and run away.

So ladies, don’t fall for the same type of men who will crush your heart over and over again.

Cheers!
