Default 5 Types Of Woman To Avoid

Here ya go castout just giving you a head start in help finding that right woman for you. Thank me later dude

When pursuing your lady, use this as a guide -- The Player’s list of five types of women to avoid. The Player has encountered many types of women in his existence, so who better to make a list than someone who’s been through the entire book? Don’t worry though, this list isn’t gospel -- it simply offers a few guidelines to keep you from meeting Dr. Jekyll, but dating Mrs. Hyde… proceed at your own discretion.

The Smart-Ass

Every man likes an articulate woman, a girl who can voice her opinion, sound intelligent and impress your friends with a philosophical debate on the downward spiral of modern politics. OK, maybe that's pushing it a bit, but a woman with verbal confidence can be a hell of a turn-on. But let's be realistic—while it's always nice to date someone who is charismatic and well-versed, it's something quite different to date a woman who beats the opinionated war drum.

Unfortunately, these types exist, and for those who haven't had the privilege of strapping on your helmet and hunkering down for a verbal assault, you're definitely not missing out. Everyone comes from different wombs, so why does she seem to get angry with you when you can't agree? Some women simply like to test you to see how well you stand up for yourself; others just like to exert their own power. The Smart-Ass exposes your intellectual weaknesses and will subsequently cut you down because of it. This is a type to avoid at all costs, as she will make the rest of your evening miserable while she stomps on your heart with an egomaniacal boot.

The Gold Digger

It doesn't take a genius to know that wooing a woman requires a trifocal effort of body, soul and spending power. As standard romantic procedures, you're going to have to take her for dinner, buy her flowers, whisk her away to the mountains for the weekend, and show her that the world is your oyster and she's the pearl. But if I can give a word of caution to my free-spending comrades out there (I'm guilty of this too), make damn sure she's actually enjoying your company and not just your wallet. If you start to notice that she's expecting you to pay for everything but the kitchen sink, your credit card bill should be enough of a red flag to warrant an emergency landing.

Here's some sound advice—if you approach a woman and the first words out of her mouth are "I'll have a Vodka Seven," chances are she's probably out to score some freebies, so proceed with caution. If her friends show up and start ordering drinks as well, there's a good chance they'll all dissipate into the crowd once they've been served, leaving you with the tab. Avoid the Gold Digger type at all costs. Like the old proverb goes, you can't buy happiness, and a woman who thinks otherwise isn't worth your time.

Ms. Right

It was not too long ago that I had to end a relationship with this type of woman, much to my disappointment. She had a bevy of outstanding qualities, but her inability to accept a different opinion ultimately led to a breakup. Every time we got together, she would declare her astuteness and would never take my advice because it was always wrong. Ms. Right is, well, stubbornly set in her ways—she's correct about everything, and if you even so much as make an unfavorable whisper, she'll lash out at you with the voraciousness of a python. The sad part is, Ms. Right types are hard to change, as their personal pride tends to get in the way of understanding others and the world around her, so all you can really do is avoid these women. She may have been spoiled as a child, or perhaps she has just hung around too many snotty girlfriends for her own good. Either way, the red flags on these women fly high. Steer clear.

The Psycho

What is it about women who feel the need to call their man 10 times a day? More importantly, what is the guy going to tell a woman that he didn't just talk about an hour ago? The Psycho will disrupt the balance you have in your day between work and home. She will meld your personal life with your business life, and make it clear to you that she exists and is planting her rump right in the middle of your daily agenda. What's worse, if you tell her to stop being so obsessive and dependent, she'll completely deny any obsession she has. She will see it as a sign that she has to work harder to win you over, and then she'll end up bothering you more. See the vicious cycle here? The Psycho will never give up, and will drown you in her own insecurities about relationships and life. If you find yourself in this predicament, I encourage you to take the blue pill and wake up from your impending nightmare.

The Rebound

This type of woman is probably the most notorious on this list. You've heard the warnings to avoid being the "rebound" guy, and it's a proven piece of advice. But yet, so many of us mistakenly fall for a woman without having a clue about her past relationships. When we encounter a beautiful woman who makes a hell of a first impression, the attraction we feel is clockwork human behavior. We seem to skip over our judgments in the hope that this will be love at first sight. But in this day and age, we are more often than not led down the wrong path, and what guys see as a blessed relationship is really just a temporary comfort for her.

The Rebound knows you are a good guy, so don't think you're failing the test. However, you've shown up at the right place at the wrong time—the invitation said seven, but you arrived at six. You're too early, and she's not ready. It's difficult to offer any advice on how to pinpoint these types of women, but a good indicator is how persistent her friends are in trying to set her up with you, and how reluctant she is to do it, much to the chagrin of her friends. If you sense reluctance, trust your instinct. Don't bite.

There's Still Hope!

With your head now freshly crammed with the follies of the five sin-ettes, you're probably wondering if there are any types out there that are worth pursuing. And my answer is: there most definitely are. You would be doing yourself a disservice to look for the types of women to avoid. Rather, find women that are your type and then decide whether to continue the pursuit You can never go wrong by playing the field—remember: not even trying is the biggest avoidance of all.

Try dealing with a real psycho, aka borderline personality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_personality

Let me tell you it's fun. I made the mistake of getting involved with a girl who in retrospect I am 90% sure was one. Really bad times particularly at the end.

For a long time so I ran into one of those people you refer to the link, and she had a tendency to hurt themselves, tragically,not fun at all.

LOL a thread for me aaaww I'm touched.

I had this one time strange moment......My PC shut itself down then I felt a woman's feelings inside me(I don't know why but I'm sure it was a women/female feelings). She was in love with me.

Usually when I feel another person he or she or that person is usually within my surrounding or eyes view(except for live television) and I always knew what direction the feeling came from(if it was from tv then it was the tv direction doh not perfect) but not on this one. She must be far far away from me so far I had no clue to her direction from me.

From then on I realized when someone's in love it feels almost like I myself fell in love. Whoever that person was, thank you for giving me the message. I received it well just don't know who it was.

Amen to that brother... had I know my ex had a diagnosed mental health illness before I fell in love with her and the trouble it would cause and the eventual wrenching pain it cost me...

too late! too late! ah well, I'd probably do the same again

Umm I just know it I'll never find my women.

But it's much better to stay single than to marry the wrong women

Due to my past and ongoing situation I find it difficult to trust anyone. Sort to speak all the people I know I found them to be a somewhat to my disgust sooner or later. Blood is not even thicker than water for my case. Though bad as it is or was I hold no grudge to my own family. In the end stupid follows stupid. The stupid just can't help not being stupid.

The problem with the article assumes a man is out "looking" - which if you are - your already going to fail.

Maybe its just the D in me, but too many men fail to have expectations of the woman or women they date. Then they "settle" for someone that doesn't meet them, just to have a partner. They end up miserable, often p-whipped, simply because they can't stand NOT being in a "relationship".

If you want to be successful in a relationship with a woman - grow a pair and keep em. Be who you are, and if she cannot accept you like that (or tries to "change" you), then move on. Don't "try", just enjoy life until you find that person who you can accept fully, and who does the same with you.

No matter which type you choose or are finally engaged to -voluntarily or not- remember always what my father used to say: "There's only one thing worser than a woman, and that's a mother" meaning that whenever a woman has offspring, all her characteristics get multiplied tenfold ...

That is sound advice for anyone, regardless of gender, when it comes to relationships.

And it works both ways - some people find another person, then twist themselves all out of shape to be the person the other person wants. Some people find another person and try to "fix" the other person until he/she is what they want. I was in a relationship with a "fixer" for a long time, way too long. NEVER AGAIN. Especially now that I've been around a while longer. I know who I am, and I'm happy with it. I'm not perfect, and I'm sure I've still got some things to learn... but I'm not gonna wake up tomorrow and do a u-turn.

And given the age range of potential companions, guys who still have major "issues" that are problematic for me at "our" age? They can work those out on their own time, I got better things to do.

Is it just me, or does the "smart ass" designation paint the author more negatively than it does the women he is criticizing?

So it's fine if she's smart enough to impress your friends and turn you on, but if you actually have to listen to her opinions and consider the possibility she might be right and you might be wrong... well, now this is something that needs to be avoided at all costs! Just shut up and act cute!

Or am I just a cynic and a gender-traitor?
