Top 10: Types Of Women To Avoid

By Heidi Muller

Are you constantly asking your friends why you can't meet a decent girl? If you find that the women you date always turn out to be annoying or weird in some way, maybe you're just choosing the wrong type of woman. For example, you should beware of the Club Veteran, who has been practically been living in bars and clubs since she hit the legal drinking age, as well as the Mystery Girl, who deliberately tries to confuse you with her elusiveness.
Obviously, there isn't just one type of woman that is right for every guy. There are thousands of fish in the sea and you will never find two that are exactly alike. However, there are certain categories of women that should be avoided at all costs. Trust me, if you steer clear of the following, you'll avoid some major headaches in the future.

Number 10

The Leech
This type of woman insists that you spend every waking moment with her, refusing to let you go out with the boys or spend any significant amount of time with anyone else. If you suggest that she should hook up with her girlfriends while you go watch the game with your friends, you will probably be faced with a two-hour argument during which she'll ask you if you still love her about a thousand times.

Let's face it: If you can't have a little independence in your relationship, it's never going to last. Unless, of course, you're also needy, in which case this might be the type of woman that's right for you.

Number 9

The Stage Hog
Whether you're with friends, family, or even just the dog, she always has to be the center of everyone's attention. In order to accomplish this, she may use one or many of the following techniques: Talking excessively loud, wildly gesturing, telling unbelievable stories just to capture everyone's attention, or wearing extremely provocative outfits.

Although this type of woman can be exhausting given that she's always putting on a show, some men do enjoy women with lots of personality. Just be sure that you can handle it before you get involved.

Number 8

The Gold Digger
Fortunately, you can usually see this type coming from a mile away. She compliments you on your expensive watch, and asks you what kind of car you drive, what you do for a living, where you live, and so on. Since the Gold Digger is basically looking for a sugar daddy, she'll size you up within the first five minutes and drop you just as quickly if your cash flow doesn't meet her standards.

Regardless of your financial situation, you should run the other way. Do you really want a woman who only sees men as dollar signs?

Number 7

Mother Goose
If your girlfriend is constantly fixing your hair and tucking in your shirt, you're the victim of a Mother Goose. Although she may have good intentions and be great in many other ways, her motherly instincts will eventually drive you up the wall.

She may not be a lost cause, however; some women can be taught to stop "mothering" you. However, if you've talked to her about it a few times and she still can't resist the urge to spit on a tissue to remove a spot from your face, you might have to go your separate ways.

Number 6

The Motor Mouth
This type chatters incessantly about every topic that crosses her mind, no matter how mundane or unimportant it may be. She will drive you crazy with her never-ending monologues about the guy at work who never makes a new pot of coffee when he finishes the last one and the woman at the supermarket who wears too much make-up.

The worst type of Motor Mouth is the one whose favorite topic of conversation is herself. If you manage to make it through two hours of listening to her talk about the new shoes she wants to buy or her lower back pain, you are prepared to survive anything. My advice is to break it off as quickly as possible before you lose your mind.

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.

No one who writes for the AskMen.com website has ever been on a date in their lives. They are linked to over on FARK constantly, and I have no idea why.

Mr. Moe · 10-06-2003, 11:58 AM

Ya I generally hate that website, although I can classify a few of my relationships in those categories..Bimbo's are the worst.

Interesting point Cyn... but "Heidi" is probably a guy as well. I can't envision a woman bitchy enough to write that article.

absorbentishe · 10-06-2003, 01:48 PM

Don't date women that talk, breath, live, etc is the article in a nut shell.

Whatever you want to call them, they're still just attention whores. My roommate is friends(?) with a few of them. They're good looking girls, but damn do they get on my nerves.

jeenyus · 10-06-2003, 02:05 PM

good to know, next tme I'm seeing a girl I can catogorize her.

ARTelevision · 10-06-2003, 02:55 PM

this sort of sexist nonsense demonstrates that men who don't get women don't deserve them.

Splice · 10-06-2003, 04:49 PM

Mind_Storm: Man, I know quite a few women that fit perfectly into these categories. Yes, it's not good to generalize or put people into groups, but let's face it...we live in the real world and sh*t happens to us guys, too.

Glad-I-Ate-Her · 10-06-2003, 05:14 PM

I hate to generalize but unfortunately I've known a few of these in my life.

This is my ex, my god, it's the truth.

I would add....

The Delusions of Grandeur.

Close to the princess, but different. The Delusions of Grandeur is an average looking girl, with an average job, with an average personality, but thinks that she is too good for every man alive. She is forever single, and "refuses to settle". Essentially the Delusions of Grandeur thinks that she is entitled to a combination of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Jesus H. Christ combined. Delusions of Grandeur has a man requirement list that no man can match. He has to be tall, beautiful, rich, intelligent, charming, have a great smile, a bad boy, have high morals, a great lover, a great career, no body hair, full head of hair, perfect smile, dimples, broad shoulders, well endowed, generous, like animals, likes children. Blah blah blah.

Kaos · 10-06-2003, 06:16 PM

The Constant Reminder

Close to The Leech, The Constant Reminder will continually put herself down, talk bad about any flaw she can find about herself, and constantly needs to be complimented to counter every time she insults herself. Like the leech where if you want some independant time, or time out with the boys, it will only bring her a validation that what she thinks is true, and you will end up spending hours reminding her that her hips aren't too fat, her hair is fine, her boobs are perfect, blah blah blah

Miekle · 10-06-2003, 07:22 PM

For every positive theres a negative for every type of girl there is a type of guy.

Lestat · 10-06-2003, 07:37 PM

That is priceless. Well described too.

I hate chicks like that. The ugly duck syndrome. You can tell them they're beautiful a thousand times and they'll either call you a liar or tell you you're just being nice to her. Compliments are shut down and if you ever dissagree with her or have something negative to say about her she acts like it's the end of the world. Sexist smeshist it has nothing to do with that characteristics are everywhere. It's not sexist to list them. Obviously if some people in here have had relationships like those before (mine was the leech) then it obviously has some truth to it. Same things could be said about men as well. No woman is perfect and it doesn't do it any justice to believe they are and say these men don't know what they are talking about. They didn't just bash women down they gave insight to the type of woman you might want to be with. Ultimately that decision is yours and yours alone but theres nothing wrong with a little guidance. I'm not a perfect man and I wouldn't want anyone to pretend like I was on some "if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all" philosophy. Just because you love someone for who they are doesn't mean you'll never have something bad to say about them. Real love is honesty....and being frank and realistic when need be.

Asta!!

Xiangsu · 10-07-2003, 01:41 AM

As sad as it is to generalize women in to ten categories think of this: How many categories do you think women would put men into?

druptight · 10-07-2003, 07:51 AM

i had this friend, and his girlfriend (thankfully he finally just dumped her) fit at least half of those descriptions up there.... scary .

Lunchbox7 · 10-07-2003, 09:01 AM

I find the motormouth pretty interesting unless the topic is always herself.

This might offend alot of female posters but I think there is some truth in it (from both ways). I was at a bucks night a few weeks ago and we were talking about how good it was to be out without fear of getting into trouble from the girlfriends. One guy comes out with the line "If they didnt have cunts we would throw rocks at them". I know that sounds very sexist but the same can be said the other way around. Men and woment piss each other off something savage. They dont understand each other or like the same things. Alot of the time they dont even want to be around each other. But the sex equation over rules all of that. The desire for sex leads to all these romantic notions and feelings. There is a certain logic in the comment
