THE 6 MOST DIFFICULT MEN TO DATE

The highly cerebral

Geeks are totally loveable. And hey—they’re not only geeks. Many of them will be the men to solve the energy crisis and find the cure for cancer. But that requires a lot of thinking. These guys can be always in their own head. Their schooling can condition them to be that way. But when you take them to a party, they stand dumbfounded at your side. And over time, your friends feel like they don’t know the man you are with at all. He is sweet, he means well, and you two have the best conversations alone. But, you just can’t take him anywhere else in your life. And that will get tough if you are still young and want a busy social life. The highly cerebral

The anarchist

They don’t all wear the “Hi my name is Jason and I’m an anarchist” name tag, but the signs pop up pretty quickly. Pretty much, the guy who creates a scene anytime he sees an employee in a restaurant being even mildly mistreated by a boss. Or the man who forces another man out of his seat on the bus so he can give it to an old lady. The man who is always on the look out for what is wrong in society and how to fix it. The man who always has a point to prove. It’s one thing to be caring—to care that some poor waiter is being yelled at by his boss or that an old woman has to stand for 5 minutes on the bus—but there comes a point when he isn’t caring about you anymore. His priority at all times is pointing out what is wrong in the world. The anarchist

The family man

And I don’t mean the guy who wants to build a family. I mean the guy whose already-existing family is constantly present. The guy who needs to stop by his parent’s home every single day if one of them has a cold. Or the guy who spends hours on end for weeks planning a surprise party for his parents each and every celebration—including anniversary parties every ¼ of a year. I’ll just say it: he is too close to his family. And the plans you make for the two of you as a couple will always be trumped if his dad calls him up and got him surprise tickets to some game, or even if his mom is struggling to fix a kitchen cabinet The family man

Eternal college student

It’s healthy to keep an active social life throughout your life if you so choose. But some guys keep it too active. As in, they became too attached to their frat house or college apartment in which there were consistently at least 5 people in the living room. So they round up a group of friends and re-create that in their grownup homes. And as their girlfriend, you don’t feel like you’re in a very grownup relationship because you barely get a moment alone with the guy.Eternal college student

Proving himself

Every man needs to prove himself at some point. Men need to be providers. There is (let’s be real) a lot of pressure on them to have not just menial jobs, but outstanding careers in which they run their own company, become a surgeon or invent something that makes them millions. Also, like any human, they need to feel that they’ve done something with their lives. Completely understandable. But there is a very all-encompassing start-up period. When the man is submitting applications to raise funds for his startup, or studying around the clock to become a doctor, he literally doesn’t have time for you. And the little time he does have to unwind, he doesn’t have the mental space to fill with someone else’s needs.

The first-timer

Some men actually don’t have a serious relationship until their mid to even LATE twenties! It’s not that strange. They didn’t want anything serious in college because they knew it would have to end when everyone moved back home (or because they would rather party and sleep around). Then, they either went to grad school or struggled for a couple of years to get a job and just didn’t have time to date. But let me tell you something; you don’t want to be their poor test subject. They haven’t learned what to say and not to say around a woman. They haven’t learned how to incorporate someone into their bachelor life yet. It’s a learning process that you don’t want to be a part of.

When I mention the most difficult men to date, I’m not referring to the artist or the guy on the list at every club. I’m not referring to men of a different religion, or ones that live far away. I’m referring to men at a certain point in their lives, and how their points and yours don’t quite match up. Each and every one of these guys could make a perfect partner, at another time. They could very well have been somebody’s high school sweet heart for years and the image of the perfect boyfriend. They might one day make the most devoted husband and father. But right now, when you’re working hard at your career and keeping up a busy social life (that you need or else you would go insane after your long week), these guys will drag you down, and keep you from growing.THE 6 MOST DIFFICULT MEN TO DATE
