Sometimes being used isn’t as obvious as a man jumping out of bed immediately after sex. Sometimes it’s a little more subtle, and even a little more bizarre. Here are the worst and weirdest things men use women for.

Sex practice

Some men know they don’t plan on dating you, but they feel secure enough with you to practice their sexual technique, improve it based on your critique, and move on.

A place for nasty thoughts

Some guys just feel like sending nasty texts sometimes, and you’re the woman who entertains them (rather than reporting them to the police).

Status

You may find yourself a trophy sometimes. Does he always take you to places where you must dress up and where you “happen to run into” a bunch of his colleagues? Uh-huh.

The cooking

Mooches are real! They show up because you feed them. You don’t have to be a gourmet chef, but you make home-cooked meals like their mother used to, and you always send them home for leftovers. They’ll have sex with a woman whom they’re only sort of into for free food.

They’re lonely

Both men and women are guilty of this! We’ve all dated someone for months (or even years) because we liked having someone to run errands with and watch movies with.
