15 Types Of Guys Every Girl Will Inevitably Date One Day
Dating as a woman can be the best and absolutely worst thing ever. From the most terrible of experiences ever to the butterflies that only a real charmer can induce, you'll never be short on an entertaining story to share with your friends.
We fall in love and we fall in hate but it's all a part of the tragic story that we hate to love on our way to finding the one. Whether you meet them at a bar, blind-date, or a right swipe on Tinder, there are 15 types of guys you'll definitely encounter at some point on one of your dating escapades. It's inevitable part of life that unless you don't date like literally ever or you were lucky enough to find “the one” right off the bat, then get ready for a really lonely time because it's going to be one hell of a ride through babe town.
15 The One Who Looks Nothing Like His Profile Pic…
I really don't know how people think that they can use ultra-edited, five-year-old photos for their dating profiles and their date just won't notice. I don't know about you guys, but I would be pretty damn offended if I set up a date with someone under the impression that they were a sexy doctor with a six pack and baby face just to find that when it comes down to it, they're more like a doctor with a keg and a butter face.
We're not superficial, we're not b*tchy, we just understand that when it comes to online dating, that right swipe is literally 90% based on what we think they look like.
You don't want to be “that superficial b*tch” so you try to wait it out. Maybe he has all the qualities you've been looking for just under the surface. Or maybe not and you should've trusted your gut.
14 The Guy Who Looks Good on Paper…
He is absolutely perfect! He's tall, dark, and handsome; a law student with a wealthy and respectable family from an exotic part of the country. He takes you to a nice dinner with drinks and maybe even dancing after, he courts you and woos you with shiny things and fancy food, and you finally get to wear that floor-length, backless dress that's been hanging in your closet for three years just waiting for the perfect occasion.
It's the absolute perfect picture of what a life-changing first date should look like. However, that poor dress is going to stay on your cute little body for the rest of the night because oh my hell! He bores the sh*t out of you and as much as you want to be into him, you would rather date a trash man with at least a semblance of a personality that stretches beyond his mommy and daddy's money and his oh, so fancy law degree.
13 The Guy in the Band…
You think guys in bands are super sexy. Well, you and literally every other girl in the country.
There's just something just so innately hot about a guy on a stage singing dirty, poetic AF lyrics into the microphone. You feel like the world around the two of you just melts away and all of a sudden you're the only one's left in the world. You picture your future full of sweet lullabies and sweaty love-making.
The harsh reality of these sexy musician fantasies is just that. A harsh reality that is nothing quite like the fantasy. You might catch his attention for a couple weeks but a few sleepovers in and one cliche, sweet lullaby later, he'll have picked his new cuddle buddy from his group of fangirls and be singing her the same damn song. Plus, musicians sing random as keys to “practice their tones” like all the time and that sh*t would get annoying. You really dodged a bullet there.
12 The Way Older Guy…
You're 21; he's 37… but whatever he's hot and you're seriously attracted to him. So what if he was graduating high school the year you were born. There's something that turns you on about the whole taboo situation. The age difference doesn't even bother you in the slightest if you're being totally honest. It's nice to finally be with someone who knows what the hell they're talking about, and isn't embarrassed to take it to public, takes care of you like it's second nature and is experienced enough in bed to rock your entire world.
Besides, age is just a number, right? Think about it. You really can't win no matter what you do. If you date the younger guy, you're a cougar all of a sudden. If you date the older guy, you have “daddy issues”. You have a 2-3 year window of guys older than you that society may not give you crap for. But there lies the problem: guys your age, generally, f*cking suck (and not even in a good way). The older guy's the way to go!
11 The Guy Who is More Into His Looks Than You…
He's gorgeous and he makes sure that you know he knows it. He's kind of like the guy who looks good on paper, except his life behind the scenes is probably a total sh*t show. He's really more like the guy who looks good in the picture. He has the kind of looks that makes your lady bits excited and your toes curl just at the sight of him. He's the kind that you dream about standing in front of on your wedding day and puts a face to the faceless man to picture for your future life.
Alright, so he's kind of a big a$$hole and probably took more time getting ready for the damn date than you did. He also takes more selfies than you do and is a bit social media obsessed. Sexy. At least he has great skin care products you can use when you spend the night… you might have to wear the big-boy pants in the relationship, though. Just FYI.
10 The Friend With Benefits…
He's the guy you chill with even if you're not getting busy. But you keep it strictly professional. No feelings. No attachment. No problem. This is actually the ideal relationship for most of us whether we'll admit it or not. Plenty of bedroom fun, plenty of fun, and none of the drama or commitment. Obviously, this isn't the ideal forever and ever type of relationship, but hell, it's the best situation I could possibly think to be in while I'm young enough to get away with it.
The only issue lies in the fact that eventually one of you is bound to catch feelings and screw the whole thing up. I'm fairly certain that it's scientifically proven that you can only have a physical, intimate relationship with someone for so long before an emotional attachment and bond is formed. Well, as much as you may want to deny it at the time, the person you can chill with like BFF's and then have the most passion you've ever experienced in the bedroom, is probably the person you should be spending forever with anyway.
9 The One Who Got Away…
He seemed perfect. You don't even remember the bad things about him. For one reason or another the two of you parted ways; maybe someone moved, family bullsh*t got in the way, or who the hell knows. Everything in this world is out to kill us or defeat our love but I guess it all makes us stronger in the end. Either way, whatever the sh*tty circumstances were that lead the two of you away from each other, he will always be the guy that ran away with a piece of your heart.
You're sure that if you ever crossed paths again, the stars would align, and you would be plunged into the world that would allow your love to thrive. You would live your happily ever after in a little snow globe of a fairytale and all would be right. However, life is a double-edged sword and not quite that simple, so he will always have to be the one who got away.
8 The Bad Boy…
He's mysterious and edgy and his “I don't give an f” attitude makes his average looks seem incredibly sexy. He emanates a sense of danger that, like any young, curious female, you're instantly drawn to, you're obsessed with, you're just flat out infatuated by. Hell, maybe he's “the guy in the band” type, but like a super rock band or screamo or something intense as hell reverberating through his bones kind of sh*t.
Alright. So maybe he's not your forever and ever, love of your life or anything, but he makes you feel like a bada$$ when you're out with him. Like, come on! You feel like you're on a high that you'll never come down from. The connection is grimy and passionate (and probably semi-public most of the time). You feel like a new, improved, and untouchable version of the self you always wanted to be. You feel like you can do anything, any way, and any how.
That has to count for something… right?
7 The One For the Night…
You meet him at the bar on a Friday night that you're feeling especially frisky (a.k.a. You haven't gotten laid in three weeks, two days, ten hours and fourteen damn minutes). All of your girl friends are cuffed for the night so what do you possibly have to lose? You need to get some action and you need to find the knight in shiny armor at this seedy a$$ that's going to take you home tonight like right now!
Six drinks later, the club seems less seedy and the guys much hotter. You spot your prey and go in for the kill. Easy as 1, 2, 3… as soon as you take one more shot for good measure.
He's cute and seems normal enough; no awkward gestures or hoards of other girls around him and not too drunk, just drunk enough. Besides, you have beer goggles on and probably won't remember this tomorrow anyway, you just have to satisfy that pussycat before she gets grumpy.
6 The Plus One…
He's your go-to date for every social event, movie, or double date. He's got an invite for everything except the sexy, romantic stuff. You guys went to almost every school dance together, traveled to Europe last summer, and he was even your last wedding date. The second a Valentine's day date or late-night hookup is in need, though, he is the absolute last person you'd even consider.
Maybe you've made out on a couple drunken nights, but that's literally the extent of it. He always low-key eludes to wanting a little more of a physical relationship, but you smoothly move away from any possibly awkward advances. He's like having a gay, straight best friend that if it ever came down to actually doing anything physical with him, you quite possibly might feel like you're going at it with your brother or something. Umm, eww. You either need to keep it this way or marry the dude. It's hard to tell.
5 The Guy Who Calls You His GF Way too Soon…
He takes you to a party or something with his friends like literally the first time you go out, the signs are there but it is too soon to tell if he is about to turn into a stage five clinger weirdo. You give him a couple more chances though just to be sure.
Alright, two dates down and just when you think there is enough potential there, with a couple little tweaks, to turn into relationship material he goes on and messes it all up. He wants to know if it's cool to call you his girlfriend because it's “easier to introduce you to people that way”.
You feel kinda bad saying “Bro, are you actually insane?!” But you suppress your impulse and instead chug the last of your drink, tell him you had a nice night and you'll call him later. Poor guy never hears a peep from you again.
4 The Bob Marley…
He is by far the chillest dude you've ever dated. You've smoked before and don't make a big thing about it but definitely, don't consider yourself a 'stoner'. That being said, you absolutely couldn't help it when this super chill, seemingly intelligent guy with an I don't give an f attitude came up to you and asked if you wanted to smoke. Like why the hell not. So you smoke!
Everything of your relationship following that point is a bit of a nice fuzzy picture in your head; like one of those dreams that's so real you actually wake up believing everything that had happened during your REM cycle is the reality of your world. You think the intimacy was good but you've never been that much under the influence before so probably think anything or anyone could have done just a good of a job… and multiple times. And you think he was low-key, sexy… but again, you were high AF, so there's really no tellin'. At least he always had the goods…
3 The Foreigner…
He's so charming and confused and cute! You really li-ter-al-ly just could not resist that accent. You don't even actually know where the hell he's from and you have absolutely no idea what he's saying, but what does that matter when he says it in that sexy voice that makes you want to rip his shirt off. You're even able to laugh off the awkward surprise you have when you do rip off his shirt (and pants) just to find a chest full of long, extra curly little hairs.
Ahhh, the sweet charms of your time dating the foreigner.
On the bright side, you learn a hell of a lot about *insert his homeland whenever (if ever) you figure it out* and about the little devil that was waiting oh, so patiently, for this moment to explore her identity. He helped you find a special piece of yourself in a way you would've never expected and the thrill of dating a sexy man from a foreign land will never quite wear off, even when the memories of the crinkles around his lips begins to fade.
2 The One Who Was on an Entirely Different Date Than You…
You felt more chemistry with your cup of coffee that morning; nothing quite like a cup of coffee and a bagel (and a smoke if you're like me) for breakfast. Picturing the enjoyment you get from that, making conversation with him was about as painful as pulling out your eyelashes one at a time and then burning your eyelids off. Dramatic, yes? Well, that's just how damn awful this date of yours probably is. But the really messed up thing about it, even though you have absolutely zero intention of ever seeing this weird human ever again, you're too nice to just get up a leave him.
When the longest date of your life finally comes to a much anticipated end, you leave thinking that you're on the same page with how horribly the date went and you should never see each other ever again, as long as you both shall live. And yet he won't stop texting you about what a good time he had and asking what your schedule looks like for this week, the next week and the week after. *sigh*
1 The One…
Ahhhh… You finally found him. The one who drives you less crazy than all the others and is sickeningly sweet to you. He melts your heart at every turn and sets the butterflies fluttering free in your stomach. He sends chills down your spine and goosebumps across your flesh with every kiss. You didn't see it coming at all and that's why it's so incredibly perfect. You weren't looking for it, you probably didn't even want it but before you knew it, it was too late and you were head over heels in love.
That's the whole sick joke, though: we find the things we look for the least and what we want will only find us when we totally abandon our every thought of this desire. You fall in love, real love, at the most inconvenient of times. Think really hard… How many genuinely happy, forever and ever kind of couples do you know? And I'm willing to bet that they didn't meet right when they both decided they were ready for love and when our searching for each other at just the right moment. Love is messy, inconvenient, and the best high you could ever be on all at the same time. The passion is even good and just keeps getting better and better with each thrust…
