6 Reasons Why He's a Waste of Time - Victoria Goodlow | Guest Week

We all know that time is of the essence! That’s why it is so important for us to use it on things that we value most. However, as women, we tend to not place these same convictions on the men we talk to. Why is that? It’s because he’s good looking, has a nice body, makes you laugh, and great in bed! We’re not getting any younger and a nice smile and good sex can only get you so far! How will you know he’s not the one? Check out some of the red flags that you should know when it comes to avoiding Mr. Waste your time!

You don’t have a title.

I don’t know about you, but I need to know where we stand. If a guy tells you, “we’re just having fun,” RUN!

He doesn’t know what he wants.

Any man that can’t give you a clear answer on the future of your relationship needs to be left alone.

It’s all about sex!

Are you noticing that the only time you talk to him is during “booty call” hours? Sex is great! However, that’s the glue that is holding you both together. Without it…what do you really have? You need someone who values you company, not your body.

He’s always lying.

Who doesn’t like a habitual liar? I’ve been in many relationships and my biggest pet peeve is dishonesty. I refuse to spend every waking moment trying to find out if he’s lying or not and you shouldn’t either. It’s best to not dig for things because you will always find something you don’t want to see. You’re too good for that!

He doesn’t take you on dates.

Chilling and his house watching Netflix does not count! A man that does not pursue you will not invest in you, that includes taking time out of his schedule and money out his paycheck to take you on a date.

Conversations are only done through text.

The way technology has advanced over the years, a lot of people rather text than talk on the phone. I’ve actually talked to guys who prefer to text, but it didn’t mean that I couldn’t call them. If your guy dodges all of your calls and seconds later answers through texts, he is not taking you seriously.

What are your red flags for someone who is wasting your time?
