1. They invent “tests” for their partners!
This can be one of the cruelest things women do, as they can end up hurting not only their partner but also their relationships with other people since these tests are rarely only about their partner. Think about it like this: has she ever told you to cancel your plans with your friend in order to spend your time with her instead? That is a test, even if you have not perceived it that way. She generally won’t have a reason and will try to see if you are going to give in to this request of hers.
A lot of the time, this cruel thing that women do is accompanied by the famous words “if you really loved me”, which seems to be a trump card for men. Either do what she wants in order to not fight with her, or stick to your initial plans but risk losing her. It is a sticky situation, and let’s be honest! Even if it is women who do it more often than not, it is one of the most annoying and petty things someone can do, regardless of gender!

Yeah, maybe someone who is 16
It depens on the individuals. It may seem 15 yr old behavior, but some never seem to grow up.
I wholeheartedly agree.
What if these men are drawn to women with the same habits 👀
I will never trust a woman again just because of this bad character trait most of them have. I’m not saying that all women are cheaters, but literally all the women that I’ve ever dated or been married to have cheated. Some were ever so sneaky and some so obvious that they just didn’t care what I thought. And all of them have lied through their teeth to my face about it and denied it. Never again. The sad part is that once you have a long string of bad women you never can get full trust in anyone who may turn out to be faithful. But I’ve never seen it. Even some of my best friends wives have hit on me and one of my own brothers wives wanted to run away with me. They just show what kind of scum they really are.
Delmar whenever a consistent theme keeps showing up in one’s life, that person has to look at him or herself. Admitting that all or most women are not to be trusted, keeps one from looking at himself while be being the constant in every situation. Were you a pushover? Did you see clear boundaries in your relationships? Why did they feel like you were the one to do that to? Sounds like some therapy may help to get you to a deeper understanding of self. Not sure what your relationship was like with your parents, but you may have picked up some unhealthy habits. We typically attract who we are, and our mates become a reflection of us. When we don’t wish to deal with that reflection, we turn away from it and blame others. Be well. Do the inner work. And then will you attack differently.
Quit meeting women in bars. They are the worst.
Maybe you should look at the kind of women you have attached yourself too. They maybe different women but all the same personality.
So true Dawn! It’s all about personality! 👍🏼👍🏼
Have you ever thought you may be subconsciously choosing women that are unhealthy for you?
Many of these traits I dont have. Don’t hate all women. Not all women are like this. My husband has a few of these traits listed in the article. Lol.
Your attracted to the same type of woman, I did the same. I deliberately started dating guys that were NOT like my ex and have had better success
what a pity your pain; but you have only found bad women; You would have to analyze your history to see if you can actually be trusted; such for that
That’s why you need to find a woman of God who believes that marriage is a sacred bond between a man and a woman representing the love that God has for all of us. A woman who sees you as God’s precious son given to her to help her grow in love and spirit. The love between husband and wife is the only love that cannot be shared. It is destroyed when it is shared. The love of children on the other hand can be shared in other words parents can love many children but not many wives and that’s the way God designed and that’s the only way it can flourish. This world is just preparation for the next, and in the next world love is the air we breathe. Your life will be good or bad not depending on which church you went to but how many people you love with the love of God not a selfish self-centered love.
For most men we are territorial to the max. And our woman we chose to spend our life with we allow in the inner circle of our heart. If she flirts or is abnormally friendly with other men then she is not only testing the waters, but she has demonstrated she has already disconnected from her man in her heart. If she shows that kind of routine hugging, kissing, or just extended arm and arm moments with male friends, know this is a RED FLAG for 99% of the men out there. Women will just pass it off as you are just insecure, while the truth is you are territorial and have put up boundaries that you set in you own heart to prevent pain and insecurity. If you date someone who is prone to this and you are even the least bit uncomfortable, its time to put her in the friend zone and leave her alone. She will only hurt you in the long run. No woman is worth that.
I know women that flirt all the time just as a game or a way of life.
Ignoring a man will only drive him away. Once you start that process and he is annoyed with your head game, you will lose him. And rightly so. No man wants to be ghosted and treated like he is low on your priority list. If you are in a relationship then you are part of your team. And it is to both party’s benefit that each make the other their priority. There is an old saying, “If you love your spouse you love yourself.” I know that some men are cheaters, as are some women. And I’m not saying that you need to give anymore attention to that one. But head games on your spouse will only back fire on you and you will just drive them away. Women have their games, but men after years of trial and error learn women who play like that are just immature and aren’t worth the time or money to invest in.
My husband had a few girlfriends like that before we met, and I had at least 1 boyfriend. I can’t say more tan 1 because I don’t if any others cheated and I wouldn’t say they treated me badly. Anyway, my husband and I had just over 37 years together before his death almost 2 years ago. I’m happy to say those women didn’t destroy his ability to trust and neither of us cheated in all the years we were together, nor did I play mind games, don’t like them & he wouldn’t have put up with it if I had.
I’m so sorry you have been hurt in your relationships! That is so very sad!
Not all women are like that! I was married to my husband for over 40 years, until his death in 2020.
I believe that marriage vows are sacred! I have been been called old fashioned…and in some ways, I guess I am!
I don’t believe in lying or cheating either!
Today’s relationships baffle me, but so did “open marriages!” Why bother to marry at all, if you want to be with other people?
I’m not saying divorce or break ups are easy, but they seem to be for some people!
I am, just now looking to start dating again…something I haven’t done since I was 16 and truthfully, I am scared to death!
Hopefully, you will find the right one and be willing to open your heart again!
These issues re all games ,only suffered by the immature.
I always enjoy your site and this article about women is very informative and a good guide to less experienced men.
There is one thing men should be aware of. We guys are supposed to be the stronger ones. However, men suffer more from a lost relationship than women. Men take this very personally and hard. They won´t talk with other men about this. They suffer in private and it takes a while for them to get back into the dating game of fear it may happen again.
Yeah it’s ok for her to think about other men or even flirt with them but if you did it they would think it’s wrong and hold it against you! And my stepdad told me something that he wasn’t wrong about…. even if you both drank the exact same amount, your drunk and she’s not!! And no matter who said or did what, you’re always wrong and she’s always right!! And never be honest about how much money you have or make….cuz then she starts getting ideas about how much of your money oughta be her money!!! Yes a lot of guys will cheat but women are way more devious, heartless and cruel !!
Gary, can you say HYPOCRITE??? Also the “right” & “wrong” thing…I’ve never met a woman that was
“wrong” about ANYTHING (in THEIR mind). They will blame the man EVERY TIME!!! Divorced women
will blame the man 100% EVERY TIME…WRONG ANSWER!!!
just thinking is ok, it’s acting on those thoughts that is the wrong thing to do, I don’t expect my partner to act like h’s gone blind or has never been in an intimate relationship with a woman before he met me, I assume rightly pr wrongly that he has had a life that included encounters with other people & some of them female , I’m just not that insecure I mean, if you want to go, go I was alone before I met you & I’ll be again for however long it takes t5o meet someone else after you’re gone I’m an adult I know how to entertain myself & I also feel there are worst ways to hurt & betray me than mere sexual infidelity but, that’s just me I have never in my life wanted to be with someone who didn’t want me as well & it’s too late start such nonsense at this late stage in the game so, follow your bliss
Accept your mother.
Wow! My ex-husband exhibited every one of these behaviors before he cheated on me, then left me to marry her. It was the most devastating period in my life. I guess there is immature narcissism on both sides of the table.
Denying sexual intimacy is a favorite of women who DO NOT LIKE themselves so they resort to punishing their husbands by denying him. Their misguided belief is that their husbands are responsible for making them happy. No one can make another happy because happiness comes from within. If a woman was not happy prior to marriage she will not be happy in the marriage until she realizes that she is the only one responsible for her happiness. Once she comes to the realization that she owns her happiness she will find that her marriage will greatly improve. The true love that she desires will surface like magic. Of course, praying to the Holy Trinity helps quite a bit.
This sounds like stuff men do lol. I’ve never done this
Real men do NOT put up with any of that crap! Women—when you “shut off” your guy—HE STARTS LOOKING FOR IT” elsewhere! How stupid can you get?
Pussy-whipped low testosterone gimps are just begging for this kind of abuse—always thinking with their “little heads” all the time! They deserve those selfish witches!
Real men—find yourself a REAL woman! Get yourself an Asian wife, treat her with dignity, and she will shower you with love. Find one from a rural area, not a city bar girl. Then you can get on with your life without the petty self-loving games these spoiled American women use to torment you! NO! LOVE DOES NOT HAVE TO HURT!
This timely advice gratis from Feral Tom and his loving Filipina wife…
This is some bad things that some women do, not all. They also do toehr bad things that could be added to the list, like say being dominsating and demandiong to have control.
This is just flat out misogyny. Yes there are some women who do this. Do all women do this no. And while men are making judgmental articles on social media they should take a good look at themselves. The number one thing that I have observed is the big romantic play when you first meet, followed by the pressure for intimacy, using the words if you love me you’ll do this. Then once you have been intimate a few times they expect a woman to become their concubine. When a woman won’t serve him and wants to be treated as an equal partner that’s when these guys move on.
No thanks
women ofton think a man can do a lot of thing and over rely on men to do everything. women also do not understand that men do under a lot of stress on jobs and responsibilities. aman can not do everything.
I’ve given up on the wife and kids dream. Get along fine with the big girls but not attracted to them. Not interested in older women or women who’ve already had their kids, and so called dating sites are just out for your money.
My ex husband did this after prostate cancer and enjoyed bumping and grinding with other women in front of me and behind my back! I told him if he continued this behavior I would leave him 350 miles from home! He let the drunk bitch lay all over him for an entire football game! I left! 9 people had to find a way home! He and his family and our children in their 30’s thought this was fine! Well 40 years of marriage down the drain! He can have her!
