10 Signs You Need to Ditch Your Boyfriend

Personally, I don’t need 10 signs to figure out whether a guy needs to be dumped or to be kept. I’ve had my fair share of ass*les, I can smell their kind in an earshot.

For start-ups and those playing it-will-only-happen-once-he’ll-eventually-change kinds, here’s your guide to either call it off, or push through and pull the trigger yourself. You can thank me later! *wink*

#1 When he made you wait because he needs to like another girl’s photo on Facebook. Admit it; you want to stab your guy the moment you see him liking a sexy girl’s photo. Worse, when he made you wait because of it. Just as when it almost took you forever to dress up and blow your hair, that’s how easy for him to neglect the efforts. Simple things can mean a lot and you cannot just let go of what seems to be the basic. Ever heard about the word, ‘nourish’? Then maybe I should remind you that you need to nourish your relationship, not your social media relations with any random girl who shows off her cleavage on Facebook!

#2 When he visits you in your house, drunk. Respect begets respect. A guy who visits your house while intoxicated is a guy who always has the lame excuse, “Because I want to see you.”  Truth: he just needed some place to stay while he’s trying to sober up. He’ll never let his mother see him drunk, or next Friday’s gonna be busted!

#3 When you were at your cuddle moments and he mistakenly calls you by another endearment. When honey becomes sweet, nothing can be more aggravating than that! Oh boy! I don’t even have to say anything further. Put on some red lipstick girl, and leave!

#4 When he name calls his mom in your presence. Who doesn’t love their moms? They’re the most beautiful people on earth. The life they breathe, they gave to you. Nine months is too long to carry a child in a mother’s womb, kindness should be a payback! You’re a hard labor! Now, if your boyfriend can’t be grateful for his mom, imagine a marriage life with him. I’d bet my life on it that he will do the same to your mom. Can you stand it?

#5 When he leaves you while you’re burning with fever. Here, admit exceptional circumstances. But when a guy leaves you despite your fever because he promised his friends they will have a good drinking spree, I’m sorry to break this up with you girl, but you don’t matter to him. If you do, he should have stayed because that is the most logical thing to do.

#6 When he wants you to find a job so you can buy him stuff. Sound crazy? There are guys who don’t want to sweat and work to buy the things they want, especially when they can manipulate their girl to find work for the both of them. This type will be the first to ask a fraction from your salary “because that’s how a relationship should work,” according to them. It should be a give and take relationship, that’s what they say. Now come to think of it, what have you actually received from him?

#7 When he tags you along with his friends to bars so you get to pay their drinks. “Aww, hon, but my friends want to meet you!” Screw it. How many times did he say that to you when all the while he just wants to tag you along to the bars he and his friends want to hop on so someone sober enough has to pay! Girlfriend, you’re no Automated Teller Machine. Here’s the common trick they’ll do: when it’s bill time, he’ll drop his head unto your shoulders, try to kiss your neckline, and whispers, “Hon, I’m so drunk.” Truth: No drunk will ever say that he is drunk! Oh wait, did he also tell you he’ll pay you back when you reach home?

#8 When he’s playing jealous over your girlfriends all the time. Jealousy often spices up the relationship. Sometimes, it’s nice to feel your partner is getting jealous over someone because it makes you feel like you matter so much he doesn’t want you for someone else. But, getting jealous over your girlfriends is totally irrational. You need to avoid that kind of guy who wants you all for himself and who draws you away from the people who truly loves you. That is unfair and selfish. You have to remind yourself, who stayed and who left. Your girlfriends are your constant stars when your night gets cold and dark.

#9 When he’s making you lie to your parents. Let’s not be perfect. We will never run out of lies which we often label as ‘white lies’. However, when he constantly makes you lie especially to your parents, be watchful of the signs of Lord Voldemort. It’s not going to make you feel better in the long run regardless your consent thereto.  And you know what, your parents will always know. Trust me. Don’t allow him to turn you into a lying daughter just to be a girlfriend to him.

#10 When he verbally abuses you. You think a single instance where he snarls at you a big F**k You, Go to H***, M**therf***r, Sl*t, @#$%! with feelings (according to my girlfriend), and you think that’s forgivable. Truth: you are allowing yourself to be abused. Some girls get so fragile whenever a man raises his voice. While you don’t have to counter a hot head, it definitely doesn’t give your guy the permission to verbally abuse you as well. Abuse manifests in different forms. Often, by words, later on, physical. Would you wait for that moment you’ll report him to the police? Would you even report him?

If you’ve been seeing these signs at an early stage of your relationship, you better ask yourself: is this the kind of man I want to spend the rest of my life with?

The decision is yours.

How about you? Are you seeing other signs?
