If you’ve been dating for any length of time, you likely already know that no two women are alike — and that many women out there would make a great partner. Unfortunately, not every woman you meet is going to be amazing. Suffice it to say, there are so many types of women you should never marry. You shouldn’t even date them.
While you’re free to do whatever you want with your dating life, avoiding dating someone who will only give you a headache (or worse) in the long run is also a good idea. These women may appear attractive initially, but they will turn your married life into a nightmare.
1. The Insecure Woman
While insecurity in younger women is often due to inexperience and insecurities carried over from high school or college, even more, mature women can carry wounds from failed marriages or serious relationships.
The insecure woman needs constant reassurance that she’s important to you. She feeds off of your validation, so you’ll constantly have to reassure her that you think she’s special, that you love her, and that you think she’s amazing.
In short, being in a relationship with an insecure woman is emotionally exhausting. If you want to save yourself a lot of unnecessary headaches, avoid relationships with insecure women of any age.
2. The Booty Call
If you’re in a casual sexual relationship with a woman but yearn for something more, don’t pursue it. While a booty-call relationship can change into something more substantial over time, it’s rare. And you surely will not be getting the type of love you want.
For a relationship to work with a woman you’re sleeping with, she needs to see you as more than a fun time in bed. It takes more than just sex to make a marriage work. And if sexual chemistry is all you have, you should either create a deeper bond or forget ever wanting to marry someone who wants sex.
3. The Spender
Most women are not interested in your money. So many lead independent lives where they can make their own money. However, there are always exceptions to the norm, and you should avoid engaging with a spender. A spender is a woman who cannot save even a single penny. She lacks financial stability due to her excessive spending. If you’re in a relationship with this type of woman, she won’t just spend her money but yours too.
The key to remember is this: if you marry a spender, you’ll not only be taking on all of her debts, but you’ll be in for many fights about finances. And who wants that?
4. The Beauty Only
The beauty only is so focused on her looks that she puts all of her energy into preserving them. She probably spends a lot of time exercising, getting her hair and nails done, and only buying the highest-quality cosmetics. While this isn’t inherently bad, it becomes a problem when the contents of her closet are more important to her than her wants and needs.
If she’s more in love with what she sees in the mirror than with you, that’s not a good basis for starting a relationship.
5. The Drama Queen
We all know at least a few drama queens, don’t we? Drama queens are frequently loud and the life of the party, so they seem like a lot of fun — at first. But guys, the constant drama that she’ll bring to your life is exhausting and can even land you in trouble.
This type of woman thrives on receiving attention. She enjoys drama and creates it wherever she goes — and frequently leaves you to deal with the fallout. She’s a gossip, always discussing and finding fault with others. She can’t be relied on to keep a secret and always spills the details when someone confidently shares something with her.
Marrying a drama queen will bring chaos to your family relationships. It may even put you in the position of choosing between family and her. This is a headache you don’t need. You’re better off wondering why you don’t have a girlfriend.
6. The Negative Nancy
The glass is always half empty with a Negative Nancy. She’s the classic pessimist and never has anything nice to say about anyone. This type of woman finds it hard to get along with her friends because, in her eyes, there will always be something wrong with them.
A Negative Nancy will always place the blame on someone else and will never take responsibility for her own actions. Guys, we can guarantee you, it won’t be long before she finds fault with everything you do and say. Eventually, that kind of negativity will suck all of the joy and life out of your relationship.
7. The Party Girl
Yes, you can find party girls at any age. Women in their 30s and 40s can be just as much of a partier as a girl in her 20s. While there’s nothing wrong with cutting loose now and then, the party girl is a woman who lives and breathes parties.
She has a deep-seated need to go out and be noticed. And because of that, she’ll always be found wearing something flashy and eye-catching. Her wardrobe is not the only thing she does to bring attention to herself. She talks loud, dances flamboyantly and drinks hard.
This type of woman will ditch you and your plans to hit the clubs with her friends. She’s also a woman who can’t do weekend brunches or go out for an early morning walk with you because she’s so hungover from partying on Friday and Saturday nights. So, unless you’re a rockstar yourself, marrying a party girl might give you a lifetime of drunkenness and hangovers.
8. The Liar
A liar is a woman who will lie simply because she can. We’re not referring to a woman who fabricates falsehoods to spare others’ feelings. We’re talking about the type of woman who lies as quickly and naturally as she breathes.
She’ll lie to get herself out of a sticky situation. She’ll lie to avoid doing something she doesn’t want to do. And she’ll lie to make herself seem better than she is — she may even lie to amuse herself.
Don’t kid yourself, guys. If a woman lies easily to others, she’s going to lie to you, too. What starts as little lies can turn into relationship-ruining lies! You’ll never be able to fully trust her, and that is not healthy in a relationship.
9. The “I’m Not Ready” Woman
This is probably the most complex woman to walk away from. That’s because the “I’m Not Ready” woman can be a fantastic person — and someone you want to be with. You may not even notice that she’s an “I’m Not Ready” because she seems like such a great all-around person, and you assume she’s ready to settle down.
Unfortunately, she might not be ready for marriage for many reasons. Maybe she was hurt in the past and shunned the idea of marriage. Perhaps she’s not the type who wants to settle down. She might be perfectly content with being unmarried for the rest of her life. While all of that is generally okay, it shouldn’t be OK if you want to marry her.
No amount of convincing and bargaining will make her “ready.” And if you get her to the altar, who’s to say this is what she wants? So if you’re with an “I’m Not Ready” woman, talk to her first and make sure you’re on the same page about where your relationship is headed.
10. The Clinger
She’s been with you through it all. You go on great dates, you go on adventures together, and you share hobbies, interests, likes, and dislikes. She goes to all your family functions and get-togethers with friends, waits around the lobby at your office, and texts all your friends. Wait a minute.
You might think The Clinger is the type of woman in love with you, who can’t bear to be away from you. But, if you’re dating a woman whose life seems to revolve around you, it’s time to think this through. Engaging with a woman who lacks personal interests or hobbies is concerning.
A relationship with someone who wants to be around you 24/7 is exhausting and unhealthy. She may end up relying on you to make her happy. This is not a good foundation for a relationship, let alone a marriage! Don’t ever propose to a Clinger unless you can gently coax her to be more independent and do her own thing!
