Number 5
The Princess
The Princess is one high maintenance chick. If she breaks a nail, she expects you to drop everything you're doing to drive her to the nail salon immediately. There's no way she'll go to the pub to have a beer and watch the game; only the trendiest venues will do. Her daddy always told her she was a princess and she expects to be treated like one.
Not only will she constantly keep you busy taking care of her every need, the Princess can also cost you a pretty penny. Although she's not necessarily after your money like the Gold Digger, she has expensive taste, and expects you to shower her with nice things and take her out to posh places on a regular basis.
Number 4
The Weeper
Remember the Seinfeld episode where Jerry's girlfriend cried like a baby when she dropped her hot dog but didn't shed a tear when her grandmother died?
Although this depiction is slightly exaggerated, the Weeper is definitely over-emotional, breaking down in tears when anything bad happens.
A reader recently wrote in saying that he had just broken up with his girlfriend after she started screaming and crying because she couldn't find her designer purse and matching wallet. Apparently, similar situations occurred regularly. If you find yourself whipping out the box of tissues on a daily basis (and over trivial matters), it may be time to bail out.
Number 3
The Bimbo
Although she's beautiful and has a hot body, the conversations aren't exactly "stimulating." If you're dying to tell your girlfriend to just "smile and nod" every time she attempts to open her mouth, you're probably dating a bimbo.
Most men welcome the opportunity to have a fling with a bimbo since they don't have to go to great lengths to come up with interesting topics of conversation. But when it comes to a serious relationship, you'll definitely lose interest faster than she can say "What does 'dense' mean?"
Number 2
The Master Debater
This chick has made it her hobby to argue about absolutely everything. In particular, she has mastered the technique of bringing up topics and past arguments that are completely unrelated to the issue at hand. The more you try to tell her that her sense of logic is out of whack, the more she'll argue.
She may also try to make you feel guilty about everything you do, even situations that you have absolutely no control over.
Obviously, if you're always tense when you're with your girlfriend, it defeats the purpose of having a relationship. If you got involved with this type of woman without realizing what you were getting yourself into, now's the time to run in the other direction.
Number 1
The Chronic Cheater
There are ultimately two types of chronic cheaters. The first will announce her history of infidelity on the first date as if she takes pride in it. This type is easy to detect and get away from quickly. The second is much more cunning -- she cheats without ever admitting to it, even when you confront her directly.
In this case, your only chance of finding out the truth is by asking someone who knows her well and whom you think you can trust. For example, if you get along with one of her long-time male friends, you can try getting the dirt from him. However, if she's cheating on you with him, you're out of luck. If you have no way of finding out but you continue to have doubts, get rid of her. Trust is the foundation of any good relationship.
they ain't all bad
Of course, it's not all black and white. Keep in mind that many women may show some traits from more than one category listed above and still be great girlfriend material.
If your girlfriend gets a little teary-eyed over Hallmark commercials but is strong in many other ways, don't convince yourself that she's a Weeper. After all, it's not exactly news that women tend to be more emotional than men.
You should simply watch out for the types of women that take things to the extreme and make you miserable. It all comes down to this: If you're unhappy more often than satisfied in your relationship, it's time to hit the road, Jack.
