Things Girls Hate In Guys

Take note and avoid:
  • Arrogance: being self-sure or slightly cocky is appealing, but arrogant is not. Big egos are not good.
  • Being over-protective: give her some space and do not accuse her with cheating on you every time she looks at another guy. Let her continue being friends with her male friends or hanging out with other guys. You need to be able to trust her, and that means not being overprotective
  • Vain guys: being hygienic and practising standard grooming methods are good, and the occasional checking-yourself-out-in-the-shop-window thing can be cute, but do not spend more time getting dressed/doing your hair than your girlfriend does. Most girls prefer a rough man, as opposed to a pretty boy.
  • Acting all tough/bad-boy when you're not: do not randomly start fights to try and impress your girl: it's transparent and most girls can see right through it. And especially do not talk to your girlfriend about how you'll bash up some guy when you see him next, if your sole intention is to act tough. She'll realise that you're bluffing next time you do meet up with that guy.
  • Acting all sensitive/emo: Some girls like sensitive guys, but this does not mean you should go over the top, especially if you're not being you. Also, try not to be too whiney. Find a balance between being tough and being sensitive.
  • In general, guys who aren't themselves: girls aren't stupid: they can see how you act around your friends or your family, and they can compare this to how you act around them. Be yourself, and don't try to put up an act just to impress the girl; it'll usually do the very opposite.
  • Guys who are degrading: do not point out a girl's faults or defects, even though she might point out yours. Girls are much more fragile. and if you want her to change in any way, do it very very gently. You should not ever be derogatory, and know where the fine line between teasing and being plain rude is.
  • Negative guys: find the positive side in things, do not go dissing everything or pointing out the faults in everyone.
That's a pretty broad list of everything a guy should not be: and most girls would agree. Suck it in and be rid of your personality defects at once!
