I’ve gone on a lot of dates and had several relationships, so I’ve definitely had a ton of super irritating things said to me by guys. Like nails-on-chalkboard annoying with a dash of “How could you possibly think that was the right thing to say?”. I’ve had so many annoying things said to me that I am a professional eye-roller. It’s a talent.

Here are the 10 most annoying things a guy has said to me.

Calm Down

Calm down. Calm down? Literally the two most cringe-worthy words you can utter, especially during an argument. YOU CALM DOWN.

We Should Be Friends With Benefits

Oh we should? Because I was thinking you should leave me alone immediately.

You're Crazy

Oh yes because I love it when you belittle those with mental illnesses and disorders by calling me crazy when all I did was simply disagree with you.

Get Back In The Kitchen

A former boyfriend said this to me in the middle of a fight. And he was totally serious. Needless to say, it didn't last.

You're So Cute When You're Mad

Not only is this condescending, but do NOT flirt with me mid-argument!

I'd So Cheat On My Girlfriend With You

You.can't.be.serious. You're serious? You're disgusting.

You Look Fine

Fine? You can't come up with any adjective other than fine? I just spent like two hours getting ready, and I look "fine"? Nope, nothing's wrong. I'm FINE.

Just Sit There And Look Pretty

An old bossman of mine said that to me as we were about to go to a meeting. For real, dude?

You're Not Wearing Enough Clothes To Ignore Me

No joke a guy said that to me this weekend. Gross.

You Can't Do That

I can't? Why? Because I'm a woman? Or because you don't want me to? Yay, sexism!

Anyway, I’m kicking myself for not getting his number because I would have gotten the ball rolling by now. It’s complete torture waiting for your crush to text you. I keep checking my phone every five seconds to see if I have a text. I even turned it off and back on because I thought there might be something wrong with my signal because I’m being that girl.

I’m fully aware that I need to chill out. Really, if we hit it off as well as I thought we did (I have friends who can vouch for that too!) then he will text me. Right? Right.

So here are 6 things you should NOT do when you’re waiting for your crush to text you.

Don't Compulsively "Like" Everything He Does

Seriously, take your finger off the like button. Don't double tap that Instagram pic. Avoid RTing every funny thing he tweets. Just be normal, and don't abuse social media.

Don't Shut Yourself Off

Just because you have it bad for your crush doesn't mean someone else isn't interested! While you're waiting around for your crush to get it together, don't shut yourself off to other people!

Source: Shutterstock

Don't Harass His Friends

Don't start bothering his friends to give you info about if your crush likes you or not. Have normal interactions!

Source: Shutterstock

Don't Try To Run Into Him

If you run into him naturally, great! But don't try to run into him on purpose, especially in places where you wouldn't normally be.

Source: Shutterstock

Stop Checking The Phone

You will drive yourself crazy, like me. Put the phone down and go do stuff. If he texts you, it'll still be there when you get back.

Source: Shutterstock

Don't Stalk Him

Do yourself a favor and stop looking at his Facebook profile. Stop re-watching his Vines over and over. Just relax and try not to cyber-stalk so much.

When we have a crush on someone, it can be hard to see them for who they really are, especially if that person is a player. Players are sweet-talkers. They’re a little manipulative and they know how to get a girl to fall hard. They also usually know how to lie like a pro. Dating one kind of, well, sucks. So before you start to fall too hard for this dude, figure out whether or not he’s a player. Luckily, you have this handy guide to help you. Check out these 10 signs that he’s a player:

Your Relationship Is All About Hooking Up

This is probably the biggest sign there is that a dude is a player. If he's all about hooking up, that could definitely mean that he's just using you for sex or a steamy makeout sesh. If he never asks you out on a date, test him. The next time he asks if you want to hang out, say, "how about we go see a movie/grab something to eat?" If his response is something like, "I'd rather just hang with you at my place :)" or there's no response at all, that shows that he just wants to hook up. If a dude really likes you, he'll want to get to know you and he'll want to impress you - meaning he'll want to take you out and show off.

He's ALWAYS Busy

Sure, there are some guys out there who work a lot or have a lot of school stuff going on and they genuinely don't have much free time. But in general, if a guy really likes you, he will make time for you or at least make a serious effort to make time for you. If a dude is all like, "Oh, I'm busy all weekend, how about Tuesday night?" every single week and you know he's not that busy, get rid of him, fast.

Source: ShutterStock

He Only Texts You At Night

Another telltale sign of a player? He's only interested in hanging out at night or at weird times and only for a little while. That's because he either only wants to hook up or he is trying to juggle a few different girls on a tight schedule. Also, if he ONLY hangs with you on Thursdays, that could mean that you're just his Thursday girl... which is lame.

Source: ShutterStock

Girls Are All Over His Facebook

Time for a little bit of Facebook stalking! Check out who this dude is friends with. Does he have over 1500 friends who are all attractive females? Warning! Does he have 85 likes on his latest profile picture? Warning! Are girls falling all over themselves commenting about how cute he is or trying to one-up each other with inside jokes? Yup, you guessed it - warning! If a dude's Facebook is all about other chicks, there's a good chance you're not the only one doing stuff with him.

Source: ShutterStock

He Never Talks About Himself Or Cares About Your Feelings

When a guy likes you, he wants to get to know you and he also wants you to get to know him. He'll tell you stuff about his life and his past and maybe even open up to you - and he'll ask you questions as well. If he's not doing that and your conversation is limited to what happened at school that day or you two just watch TV without really talking much, that probably means it's because he doesn't really care.

Source: ShutterStock

His Phone Is Always Blowing Up

This is similar to the Facebook thing, but this time, no stalking. Don't look at his phone - rude. Instead, pay attention to how often it goes off when you guys are together. If he's talking to other girls, it's not like they're going to avoid texting him when he's with you - because they don't know to do that, most likely. If he's constantly getting texts he keeps private or phone calls he ignores, it could be a sign that those are other ladies calling him.

Source: ShutterStock

He's A Big Sweet-Talker

Players become players for a reason - they're smooth, they know how to flirt and they know how to get a girl to fall for him. Therefore, they're usually big sweet talkers. You know what I'm talking about: they know all the right things to say at all the right times and their compliments make your whole body blush. Don't fall for it, girl! If he's a sweet-talker but nothing else, that's a bad sign.

Source: ShutterStock

Other Girls Have Warned You

Have any other girls warned you about him being a player? It's easy to brush off those warnings as mere jealousy or manipulative tactics to try to keep you away from a guy you like, but usually, you should pay attention. If a girl you generally get along with says something like, "watch out for that guy," there's probably a reason. Maybe he played her or her friend or someone she knows. She's probably trying to look out for you and you should probably listen to her. Of course, look into her claims, but don't ignore them completely.

Source: ShutterStock

You've Never Met His Friends

If a dude is into you, he'll be excited to introduce you to his friends and show you off. If he's a player, he obviously doesn't need his friends getting attached to you or anything like that. And he doesn't need to risk bringing you around only to have them say something they shouldn't. If you haven't met them yet, ask if you can. If he avoids it like the plague, you'll know something is up.

Source: ShutterStock

You Don't Trust Him

In the end, go with your gut. You know this guy, not me. If something inside of you is telling you not to trust him, there's probably a good reason why. Listen to yourself!

The thing is, now when I break up with someone, it’s done. I’m someone who needs to cut off contact or else I end up diving into this on-and-off cycle. After having two very long on-and-off relationships, I just can’t do it again. It’s too difficult.

But this guy wanted to be friends and still act buddy-buddy. Which was fine until I realized that I just can’t do that. Why, you ask? Maybe because I’m surrounded by social media and am getting bombarded by him ALL THE TIME.

I love social media, I really do. I just don’t want to see the guy that I want to be with all up on my Instagram and Twitter feeds when I’m trying to get over him. I was doing okay for a while because we weren’t talking that much anymore. But little by little, we’re communicating more. Or rather, he’s “communicating” with me.

He sends me Snapchats of things he’s doing and tweets at me, but then doesn’t want to have an actual conversation. And I’m here like “Helloooo why are you doing this to me?!” It’s like he knows when I’m about to get over him and then he’s all NO JK COME BACK. It’s really frustrating.

Back in the day when all of this social media didn’t exist, I found it much easier to avoid contact with people. I know I could easily unfollow him or unfriend him or whatever, but it seems really harsh to do that. He didn’t particularly do anything like one of my exes that I had to block from Facebook. The timing just wasn’t right. We don’t have ill feelings toward each other.

I just miss his face. And it’s really hard to move on and want to give other guys a chance when I’m seeing his face pop up on my phone because he won’t let me go. I really don’t know what to do.

Should I just remove him from all social media accounts? Should I talk to him about it? If I talk to him, how do I even bring it up? I feel so confused in my brain, heart and feels. HELP ME! Tell me what you think I should do in the comments!
 

At least I don’t regret hooking up with him

I met two guys recently and both of them asked me out. So I had two dates lined up for last week. And then I went to the park this past weekend and met a guy who asked me out the next day. That’s right, I had three dates in one week. I never say this, but SWAG.

Now I’m trying to figure out what to do. Do I go on second dates with all of them? Do I try to narrow it down? Do I cut them all loose and keep going on first dates?

Being single is getting exhausting! Anyway, I did learn a lot of things on these dates both about myself and guys in general. Here’s what I learned.

I'm Awkward

I feel like I'm a pretty put together person, but I can also be extremely awkward and weird especially in high stress situations. Like first dates. My fear of fish is not as charming as one would expect.

You Know If You're Better As Friends

It's pretty easy to tell on a date if this is someone you're just going to be friends with or not. I'm not saying you should friend-zone a guy immediately, but you get a feeling.

Source: Shutterstock

I Talk A LOT

I didn't realize how much I talked. I can talk a brick wall down, I think. I mean, I don't think I'm boring, but I could stand to not say everything that goes through my brain.

Source: Shutterstock

One Date Does NOT Mean We're Dating

I don't know if I'm going on second dates yet. I haven't decided. And that's okay. One date does not mean you are dating or that you can't be dating other people.

Source: Shutterstock

Guys Reveal A Lot Of Info

I like getting to know people, I really do. BUT I don't want to know everything about someone on the first date. If you tell a date everything about yourself right away, you're not going to have anything to talk about on another date.

Source: Shutterstock

Narcissistic Guys Kind Of Win

A recent study showed that guys who are really into themselves and who are very forward often get the girl. I can attest to that. The guy I met in the park was totally in love with himself and way more forward than anyone I've met. And I went out with him and had a great time.

This week on the message boards, you girls are talking about what to do if your boyfriend isn’t great in bed because he only pays attention to himself so you end up faking it.

Let’s see what y’all had to say!

Nobody said:

It is a big deal, I’d seriously talk to him about it and tell him where you’re coming from. And I hate to say it but if he’s not willing to take the time to please you he really can’t be that great of a guy and care about you all that much (speaking from experience). Tell him something like “How would you feel if I got off all the time and you never did and when you got upset I just told you to go ‘masturbate’” and just see how it goes.

S0Exciited said:

My main advice to you is never fake it again. Your boyfriend is a selfish lover, and you aren’t making things any better by faking it and keeping your mouth shut. A silent lover is an unsatisfied one. Tell him he isn’t satisfying you because he’s not trying! He needs patience.

mandakim said:

If he can’t be bothered pleasuring you now, imagine how he’s going to be when/if you get married. Do you want to spend the rest of your life being literally used for his pleasure and him not giving a rats about yours?

He doesn’t need to “change a little”, he needs to “change a LOT” and needs to understand how important it is for BOTH of you to enjoy sex. It’s a two person activity. Make sure he knows that, and if he doesn’t care or cant be bothered changing, dump him! There a lot of guys out there who WILL care about your pleasure and make sure you both enjoy the experience.

It totally sucks when you aren’t having good sex with your boyfriend. But you absolutely need to speak up! Faking it is the worst thing you can do. He’s just going to keep doing the same thing since he thinks he’s getting it right!

If your sex life isn’t what you want it to be, you have to say something. You have to tell your partner what you want! You don’t have to tell your partner that they suck in bed, but just explain what you like and how you want things to be done. Let him know “I really like it when you do this,” or take a different approach and ask if y’all can try something new.

Sex is a two-way street. If your partner doesn’t know what you like in bed, there’s no way that they’ll be able to please you. Before you have sex again, sit your partner down and talk about it. Having an open dialogue about sex will also make things much better between you two.

Even though she pretends to be a guy throughout the whole movie, (which I don’t recommend to get the guy) she eventually comes clean and everything turns out just fine. But Mulan doesn’t want to be just some trophy girl. She wants to do things and make a difference. Don’t we all?!
