7 Types Of Single Women That Turn Men Off

Concern With “Everything Else”

When it comes to dating, you want a relationship, but don’t make bond building a priority. This behavior can manifest in the following ways, as outlined by Borak: 1) You say “next month” you’ll find a relationship. Next month never comes. 2) You keep adding stuff to your to-do list. No end to the things that to be need done. 3) You won’t say “No” to anyone and hide behind other people and responsibilities to them. 4) You’ll try after you lose 5 more pounds, grow your nails out, or other small self-improvements.

Stop making up reasons why you can’t have what you want right now. Self development is good, but take small steps versus using them as an excuse.

You’re Too Obsessed With Fame & Ballers

It’s reasonable to want an equal partner, but if your standards are too high, you could miss the good guys who are on your level.

Borak says this can manifest in a couple of ways: 1) You require a partner to demonstrate financial security before you will date them. 2)You maintain yourself to extreme standard. How you look counts. 3) You idolize this person and look for signs that they are into you. 4)Other people must find them desirable.

If you feel financially secure in yourself, your partner’s Amex card status suddenly takes a back seat.

You Aren’t Even Available For A Relationship

We love to think we are emotionally available for the “one” at all times, but sometimes we have to be realistic about our own roadblocks. Borak describes the “reserve relationship pattern” as someone who is in a relationship, but keeps someone hovering around her as a backup plan incase plan A falls through. This type of person also still consistently communicates or sexes an ex. They also can’t stand to be alone.

If this sounds like you, the best remedy is to be alone, and get comfortable before pursuing a relationship.

You Want Perfect, Immediately.

Not every one hits it off day 1. Some connections need to be worked on to grow into the love story you desire. People who participate in the “pretty perfectionist” self sabotaging behavior won’t give someone a second chance if there isn’t instant chemistry, according to Borak. This person can also be a tad superficial–unwilling to date anyone a few pounds over weight or beneath an “8.”

Broaden your standards. A regular guy could give you the love and commitment you are aching for.

You’re Single, But Haven’t Dealt With Past Issues

“Freedom Finders” are people who are embracing being single, but are still confined to the issues of their previous failed relationships. This is common for recently divorced people. Borak says that signs of a “freedom finder” can include the following: 1) You hate your ex and think about what a terrible person they are all the time. 2) You want your old life back. Wait, no you don’t. 3) You have no idea what you want in a partner. Warm body sounds good. 4)You can’t stop talking about your ex. You miss them. You hate them.

Sounds like you? Well then my dear, you are confused. Slow down, take a break, and get back on the dating pony when you’re actually ready.
